    The 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...

    This study is of a drug called CT1812, that is being evaluated as a possible treatment for Dementia with Lewy Bodies. In this study, which is carried out at multiple sites in the country, participants receive either CT1812 at one of two doses or placebo. The duration of the study is up to about 35 weeks. Participants receive blood tests, cerebrospinal fluid testing, pen and paper tests, and an MRI scan as part of the study procedures.

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe the investigational drug, DSP-0390, is at different doses and to identify a recommended dose that is safe for further study. Investigational means that the study drug is currently being tested and has not been approved for use alone or in combination with any drug by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or any other health or regulatory authority in other countries. DSP-0390 is an oral drug that is being tested in people with high-grade glioma. This drug may help to inhibit or block emopamil binding protein (EBP), a protein that is...

    This study is being done to answer the following question: Can we shrink or stabilize your brain cancer by adding immune therapy drugs to the usual radiation therapy? We are doing this study because we want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your recurrent glioblastoma. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for recurrent glioblastoma.

    The 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.

    Aya Haggiagi, MD
    The 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...

    In this research study, we are looking to see how safe and effective the combination of pembrolizumab, ibrutinib and rituximab is in your type of cancer. The FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) has not approved pembrolizumab, ibrutinib or rituximab for your specific disease but these have been approved for other uses including other types of non-Hodgkins lymphoma.
