Combination of BKM120 and Bevacizumab in Refractory Solid Tumors and Relapsed/Refractory Glioblastoma Multiforme
Description

In this phase I/II study,investigators are evaluating the feasibility and efficacy of the combination of BKM120, an oral inhibitor of PI3 kinase, and bevacizumab in the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory GBM. In the Phase I part of the trial, the optimal BKM120 dose to be administered with a standard dose of bevacizumab will be determined in patients with refractory solid tumors. Although it is unlikely that the concurrent administration of bevacizumab will alter the pharmacokinetics of BKM120, limited pharmacokinetic sampling will be performed on all patients treated during the Phase II portion of the study. Assuming this combination is feasible, the Phase II portion of the study will proceed, using the doses determined in the Phase I portion. In the phase II portion, eligible patients will be limited to those with recurrent/progressive GBM following 1st line combined modality therapy.

COMPLETED
Bevacizumab and Irinotecan or Temozolomide in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Glioblastoma Multiforme or Gliosarcoma
Description

This randomized phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving bevacizumab together with irinotecan or temozolomide works in treating patients with recurrent or refractory glioblastoma multiforme or gliosarcoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as irinotecan and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bevacizumab together with irinotecan or temozolomide may kill more tumor cells.

COMPLETED
Bispecific Antibody Plus White Blood Cells in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Glioblastoma Multiforme
Description

RATIONALE: Bispecific antibodies plus white blood cells may be able to locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining bispecific antibodies with white blood cells in treating patients who have recurrent or refractory glioblastoma multiforme.

AVAILABLE
Expanded Access to Gallium Maltolate (GaM)
Description

The objective of this program is to provide GaM for compassionate use in patients with relapsed/refractory histologic or molecular glioblastoma who have exhausted available treatments. The population of this program is adult patients aged greater than or equal to 18 years with a diagnosis of relapsed/refractory histologic or molecular glioblastoma, according to the WHO 2021 diagnostic criteria. Molecular glioblastoma is characterized as an IDH-wildtype diffuse and astrocytic glioma in adults if there is microvascular proliferation or necrosis or TERT promoter mutation or EGFR gene amplification or +7/-10 chromosome copy number changes

RECRUITING
IL13Ra2-CAR T Cells with or Without Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in Treating Patients with GBM
Description

This phase I trial studies the side effects and how well IL13Ralpha2-CAR T cells work when given alone or together with nivolumab and ipilimumab in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Biological therapies, such as IL13Ralpha2-CAR T cells, use substances made from living organisms that may attack specific glioma cells and stop them from growing or kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether giving IL13Ralpha2-CAR T cells and nivolumab together may work better in treating patients with glioblastoma.

ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING
Genetically Modified T-cells in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Malignant Glioma
Description

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of genetically modified T-cell immunotherapy in treating patients with malignant glioma that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to therapy (refractory). A T cell is a type of immune cell that can recognize and kill abnormal cells in the body. T cells are taken from the patient's blood and a modified gene is placed into them in the laboratory and this may help them recognize and kill glioma cells. Genetically modified T-cells may also help the body build an immune response against the tumor cells.

TERMINATED
VAL-083 Phase 3 Study in Temozolomide-Avastin (Bevacizumab) Recurrent GBM

Participants will measure urine ketone bodies with Ketostix 2x day and blood for glucose and ketone levels using self-administered Precision Xtra® Meter (Abbot Diabetes Care, Alameda, CA, USA) starting with the first day of the diet. Self-administered blood checks for glucose and ketone bodies will be done in fasted state in the morning and 2 hours post-prandially in the evening. Participants will be seen on day 7 of treatment by the study nutritionist and a study investigator-physician (separately) to review possible AEs, and for further education about the diet. Study staff will review and evaluate the participant's method of urine ketone and blood glucose and ketone levels testing. Subsequently, participants will be seen at one, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks after KG diet initiation, and then monthly. KD treatment will last until exit criteria are met or for 6 months, whichever comes first. Exit criteria are the primary outcome measures, the first of either (a) cerebral edema requiring steroid rescue therapy or (b) death. Treatment will occur in outpatient office setting at the Mid-Atlantic Epilepsy and Sleep Center, Bethesda, MD. The location of subsequent treatment administration may change to hospital setting at Holy Cross Hospital should a patient need hospitalization during the study for any reason, as determined by the patient's clinical care needs.

ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING
Memory-Enriched T Cells in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Grade III-IV Glioma
Description

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of memory-enriched T cells in treating patients with grade II-IV glioma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Memory enriched T cells such as HER2(EQ)BBζ/CD19t+ T cells may enter and express its genes in immune cells. Immune cells can be engineered to kill glioma cells in the laboratory by inserting a piece of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) into the immune cells that allows them to recognize glioma cells. A vector called lentivirus is used to carry the piece of DNA into the immune cell. It is not known whether these immune cells will kill glioma tumor cells when given to patients.

RECRUITING
Super Selective Intra-arterial Repeated Infusion of Cetuximab (Erbitux) With Reirradiation for Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory GBM, AA, and AOA
Description

Primary brain tumors are typically treated by surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, either individually or in combination. Present therapies are inadequate, as evidenced by the low 5-year survival rate for brain cancer patients, with median survival at approximately 12 months. Glioma is the most common form of primary brain cancer, afflicting approximately 7,000 patients in the United States each year. These highly malignant cancers remain a significant unmet clinical need in oncology. GBM often has a high expression of EFGR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor), which is associated with poor prognosis. Several methods of inhibiting this receptor have been tested, including monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The investigators hypothesize that in patients with recurring GBM, intracranial superselective intra-arterial infusion of Cetuximab (CTX), at a dose of 250mg/m2 in conjunction with hypofractionated radiation, will be safe and efficacious and prevent tumor progression in patients with recurrent, residual GBM.

COMPLETED
Study of Efficacy and Safety of Dabrafenib in Combination With Trametinib in Pediatric Patients With BRAF V600 Mutation Positive LGG or Relapsed or Refractory HGG Tumors
Description

The purpose of this study was to investigate the activity of dabrafenib in combination with trametinib in children and adolescent patients with BRAF V600 mutation positive low grade glioma (LGG) or relapsed or refractory high grade glioma (HGG)

COMPLETED
Wild-Type Reovirus in Combination With Sargramostim in Treating Younger Patients With High-Grade Relapsed or Refractory Brain Tumors
Description

This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of wild-type reovirus (viral therapy) when given with sargramostim in treating younger patients with high grade brain tumors that have come back or that have not responded to standard therapy. A virus, called wild-type reovirus, which has been changed in a certain way, may be able to kill tumor cells without damaging normal cells. Sargramostim may increase the production of blood cells and may promote the tumor cell killing effects of wild-type reovirus. Giving wild-type reovirus together with sargramostim may kill more tumor cells.

COMPLETED
