Principal Investigator:
Sheng-Han Kuo, MDYou may be eligible to take part in the study because you have a diagnosis of Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) with the symptoms of neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension (nOH). MSA is a rare disorder in adults that progresses rapidly and ultimately is a fatal neurodegenerative disease. It is characterized by autonomic failure affecting blood pressure regulation, movement and balance. Autonomic failure occurs when the autonomic nervous system, which controls functions responsible for well-being and maintaining balance, does not regulate properly. The main purpose of this study is to look at... -
Principal Investigator:
Maria Diaz Ordonez, MDThe main purpose of this study is to determine a dose of AZD9574 that is safe and tolerable (does not cause side effects that could prevent people from taking the drug) when given alone or in combination with temozolomide. The study will also evaluate how much of the study drug is in your blood at various times. In addition, the action of the study drug will be evaluated by measuring specific chemicals in the blood. All parts of this study are experimental which means AZD9574 is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This is the first time AZD9574 has been tested in... -

Principal Investigator:
Fabio M. Iwamoto, MDThe purpose of this study is to compare the usual radiation therapy and usual chemotherapy, temozolomide, to using the usual radiation therapy and usual chemotherapy plus the chemotherapy drug lomustine (Gleostine). Lomustine (Gleostine) is already approved by the FDA for use in brain tumors but it is usually used alone and is not the first-line choice for methylated MGMT tumors. Adding a second chemotherapy drug, lomustine (Gleostine), to usual chemotherapy and radiation therapy could extend your life or shrink or stabilize your cancer. But, it could also cause side effects, which the study... -

Principal Investigator:
Maria Diaz Ordonez, MDThe purpose of this study is to measure how safe eflornithine is in combination with temozolomide in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) following radiation therapy. Safety and tolerability will be determined on the basis of physical exams, laboratory tests, and questions about any problems you might experience during the study. This study will also measure levels of eflornithine in patients following dosing, and it will evaluate how effective eflornithine is as a treatment of GBM when combined with temozolomide. Eflornithine is an experimental drug, which means that... -

Principal Investigator:
Rebecca Straus Farber, MDThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the differences between immune profiles of individuals remaining on Ocrelizumab/Rituximab versus those transitioning to diroximel fumarate at two years. Baseline visits for subjects transitioning to diroximel fumarate (DRF) will take place 6 months after last Ocrelizumab (OCR) or Rituximab (RTX) dose, prior to beginning DRF. Baseline visit for individuals remaining on OCR/RTX will take place prior to OCR/RTX dose. Visits will occur every 6 months for 24 months (total of 5 study visits). Visits will include blood draw as well as clinical assessments. -
Principal Investigator:
Aya Haggiagi, MDThe purpose of this study is to see if ONC201 is effective in treating participants with glioma when given following radiation therapy, how safe and tolerable ONC201 as compared to using placebo (a capsule that looks like ONC201 but does not contain any active drug), and to see how well ONC201 can improve quality of life and brain functioning in patients with glioma. ONC201 is a new drug that is being developed for treating people with glioma. ONC201 may help to remove tumor cells without affecting normal cells of the body. ONC201 is a first-in-class drug, which means it is a new drug having... -
