This study will test whether MB-CART19.1 is a safe and effective treatment for central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL). This study will test different doses of MB-CART19.1 to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects in participants.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether the combination of epcoritamab and ibrutinib is a safe treatment approach that causes few or mild side effects in people with relapsed/refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) or secondary central nervous system lymphoma (SCNSL).
This phase Ib trial tests the safety and side effects of glofitamab after pre-treatment with obinutuzumab and how well they work in treating patients with central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma. Glofitamab is a bispecific antibody that can bind to two different antigens (substances that cause the body to make a specific immune response) at the same time. Glofitamab binds to CD20 on lymphoma cells, and CD3 on T-cells (a type of white blood cell) and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Obinutuzumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Obinutuzumab can also be administered as a pre-treatment to make glofitamab safer and more tolerable. Giving glofitamab with obinutuzumab pre-treatment may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with CNS lymphoma.
To learn if consolidative stereotactic radiosurgery (cSRS) can help to control central nervous system (CNS) disease in patients who have brain metastases and have a partial response or stable brain metastases after systemic therapy. To learn if using SRS to treat all brain metastases that do not respond to systemic therapy versus treating only metastases that are getting worse can help to control CNS disease in patients whose disease gets worse after systemic therapy.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to learn if imagining fast or slow muscle contractions causes different responses for nervous system excitability and muscle function in young, healthy males and females in. The main questions are: Does imagining fast muscle contractions cause greater nervous system excitability compared to imagining slow muscle contractions? Does imagining fast muscle contractions increase muscle function compared to imagining slow muscle contractions? A control condition (rest) will be compared with two intervention conditions: imagining fast and imagining slow conditions, to determine if the fast and slow increase outcomes more than control and if fast has the greatest response. Participants will: * Attend 4 laboratory visits * Perform 50 imagined contractions fast or slow, but with no physical movement * Physical muscle contractions and non-invasive brain stimulation would be completed before and after each condition.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn if drugs loncastuximab tesirine and rituximab (lonca-R) after stereotactic radiosurgery are safe and effective for treatment of central nervous system lymphomas.
Quantify the flow of a tactile signal from the stimulus at the finger at the peripheral nervous system (PNS), to the central nervous system (CNS), and to cognitive perception at the brain in young adults (Aim 1) and individuals with and without stroke (Aim 2).
This randomized phase II trial studies how well obinutuzumab works as maintenance treatment in patients with central nervous system lymphoma who have achieved the disappearance of all signs of cancer in response to treatment (complete response) or a decrease in the size of a tumor, or in the extent of cancer in the body, in response to treatment (partial response). Immunotherapy with obinutuzumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
Background: Immune system and nervous system have significant interaction so that People with immunity diseases can have complications that affect the nervous system and people with some neurological disease may have defects in their immune system.These complications can affect many body functions, including how they move, walk, think, and feel. Researchers do not fully understand how immune diseases affect the nervous system. By learning more, they hope to create more effective treatments. Objective: To learn more about the interaction between immune and nervous system and how immunity disease affect the nervous system. Eligibility: People aged 2 years and older with an immunity disease. Their healthy biological relatives and other healthy volunteers are also needed. Design: Participants will be screened. Blood will be drawn for research. They may have imaging scans. Adults may undergo lumbar puncture: A needle will be inserted into their back to collect fluid from the space around the spinal cord. The imaging scans and lumbar puncture will be optional for healthy relatives and volunteers. All participants will have 1 study visit per year for 5 years. They will be asked to donate samples of body fluids at each visit. Blood samples are required for the study. All other donations are optional. These may include saliva, urine, breast milk, stool, vaginal secretions, and wound drainage. Affected participants may be asked for a skin biopsy: A small sample of skin will be removed. They may also be photographed or videotaped to record the symptoms of their disease. Tests for each study visit may be spread over several days, if needed. Visits may be at the clinic. Participants may also collect their own samples at home and send them to the researchers....
Background: About 90,000 new cases of brain and spinal cord tumors are diagnosed annually in the United States. Most of these tumors are benign; however, about 30% are malignant, and 35% of people with malignant tumors in the brain and spinal cord will die within 5 years. Many of these people have changes in certain genes (MYC or MYCN) that drive the development of their cancers. Objective: To test a study drug (PLX038) in people with tumors of the brain or spinal cord. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older with a tumor of the brain or spinal cord. Some participants must also have tumors with changes in the MYC or MYCN genes. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. They will have imaging scans and a test of their heart function. They may need to have a biopsy: A sample of tissue will be removed from their tumor. PLX038 is given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. All participants will receive PLX038 on the first day of each 21-day treatment cycle. They will take a second drug 3 days later to help reduce the risk of infection; for this drug, participants will be shown how to inject themselves under the skin at home. Blood tests, imaging scans, and other tests will be repeated during study visits. Hair samples will also be collected during these visits. Some participants may have an additional biopsy. Study treatment will continue up to 7 months. Follow-up visits will continue every few months for up to 5 years.
