This multicenter phase 2 immunotherapy trial will evaluate the combination of two immune checkpoint inhibitors, nivolumab and relatlimab, in patients with newly diagnosed isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-wild-type glioblastoma.
This is a phase 1 immunotherapy trial for patients with recurrent high-grade gliomas designed to evaluate the safety and biological activity of the gene therapy, SRN-101, administered prior to planned surgical resection.
This is a phase I/II trial that aims to to establish a safe and effective dose of albumin-bound paclitaxel, to demonstrate that the opening of the blood-brain barrier increases chemotherapy concentration in the tumor, and to estimate how effective this treatment is in reducing the tumor burden and prolonging life.
This is a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center study of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma to evaluate a peptide vaccine (SurVaxM) in emulsion with Montanide given together with locally administered sargramostim plus adjuvant oral temozolomide (Arm A) versus
Natural killer (NK) cells are immune cells that recognize and get rid of abnormal cells in the body, including tumor cells and cells infected by viruses. NK cells have been shown to kill different types of cancer, including brain tumors in laboratory settings.
