Lomustine

Summary: This global clinical trial which evaluates the efficacy and safety of TLX101-Tx, an investigational radiopharmaceutical therapy, in combination with lomustine versus lomustine alone in adult patients with first recurrence of glioblastoma. TLX101-Tx delivers targeted radiation to glioblastoma cells. The trial is conducted in two parts: Part 1 assesses safety and radiation dosing; Part 2 is a random...

Summary: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the most common hematologic malignancies. With increasing life expectancy and the aging of society, the incidence of AML in the elderly population is rising. The prognosis of elderly AML patients is significantly worse than that of younger patients: the 5-year overall survival rate in patients over 60 years is less than 20%, while the median survival in patie...

Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is notoriously difficult to treat, with current therapies often extending life by only a few months. The standard treatment involves surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy with Temozolomide (TMZ). The efficacy of TMZ, however, is significantly enhanced when the tumor's o6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) gene is methylated. Recent studies, such as the NOA-09 tr...

Summary: Glioblastoma (GBM) adaptive, global, innovative learning environment (GBM AGILE) is an international, seamless Phase II/III response adaptive randomization platform trial designed to evaluate multiple therapies in newly diagnosed (ND) and recurrent GBM.

Summary: This is an open-label single arm study. All patients will receive the study drug. The aim of the study is to compare overall survival (OS) of patients with recurrent brain tumor, known as Glioblastoma (GBM) having high levels of a protein, Trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (Trop-2), expression on treatment with Sacituzumab Govitecan (SG) versus lomustine only which has been used in the past.

Summary: This phase III trial tests two hypotheses in patients with low-risk and average-risk medulloblastoma. Medulloblastoma is a type of cancer that occurs in the back of the brain. The term, risk, refers to the chance of the cancer coming back after treatment. Subjects with low-risk medulloblastoma typically have a lower chance of the cancer coming back than subjects with average-risk medulloblastoma. ...

Summary: Despite comprehensive multimodal treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastoma, almost all patients suffer from tumour relapse. Currently, no standard of care exists to treat these tumour relapses. Treatment options include repeated surgery (if feasible), systemic therapy (bevacizumab, lomustine, temozolomide re-challenge), reirradiation and best supportive care. Currently, the superiority of combined...

Summary: Oligodendrogliomas in the novel edition of the Central Nervous System (CNS) World Health Organization (WHO) classification are now molecularly defined by isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)1 or IDH2 mutations and 1p/19q co-deletion. The prognosis of these molecularly defined tumors is to be determined in new series since survival data from older histology-based studies and population-based registries a...

Summary: Because of their prolonged survival, patients with 1p/19q-codeleted low-grade oligodendrogliomas treated with RT + PCV are at risk of neurocognitive deterioration. We make the hypothesis that withholding radiotherapy until tumor progression could reduce the risk of neurocognitive deterioration without impairing overall survival.

Summary: This is a phase 1 study evaluating the safety and feasibility of laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) followed by lomustine (CCNU) for recurrent glioblastoma in adults. The primary aim is to evaluate the safety of the combination of LITT plus lomustine based on the assessment of treatment-related adverse events and the feasibility of completing LITT + lomustine in the proposed timeframe. The ...

Summary: This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of venetoclax-enhanced BUCY (Ven-BUCY) conditioning compared to the standard BUCY regimen in patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Eligible participants aged 12 to 60...

Summary: This study is designed as a single center, prospective, open label, single-arm therapeutic trial with both surgical and non-surgical cohorts.
