This study tests whether a non-invasive sound wave technique (transcranial focused ultrasound) can successfully image brain tumors before surgery. About 15 adults scheduled for brain surgery will have ultrasound scans taken and compared to standard MRI images. The goal is to see …

This study is testing whether a special PET scan (using 18F-Fluciclovine) can help doctors see if brain tumors are responding to radiation treatment. About 46 adults with brain metastases will get the scan before and after stereotactic radiosurgery. The goal is to find a better w…

This study is developing an AI system that tracks tumors and organs during radiation therapy without needing physical markers. Researchers will use existing patient data to train and test the AI. If it works, it could help doctors target radiation more accurately. The study invol…

This study is testing a new computer program that helps doctors see which parts of the brain control important functions like language and movement. The goal is to help surgeons plan brain tumor removal more safely. About 1,720 adults with brain tumors who need surgery will take …

This study gives patients with a new brain mass a safe, non-radioactive sugar tracer before surgery to see how their tumor uses energy. Researchers will analyze the tumor tissue and compare it with MRI scans to find patterns that could help identify aggressive tumor cells. The go…

This study tests a special brain-mapping grid placed during surgery to better identify areas that control movement and speech. Researchers will compare this method with standard techniques in 75 adults with brain tumors. The goal is to see if the new grid helps surgeons avoid dam…

This study compares two common methods of closing the skin after brain tumor surgery: a continuous stitch under the skin using absorbable thread versus separate stitches through the skin using non-absorbable thread. Researchers want to see which method leads to fewer wound proble…

This study aims to find new genes that cause pituitary tumors, including those that lead to acromegaly (gigantism) and prolactinomas. Researchers will collect blood and tissue samples from up to 10,000 people with these tumors and their family members. By analyzing DNA, they hope…

This study is testing whether a 15-minute app called Brainlab Cognition can be used in busy brain tumor clinics to track memory, attention, and other thinking skills. Researchers will also collect quality-of-life reports electronically from patients. The goal is to see if this ap…

This study looks at the immune cells inside pituitary tumors to better understand how they behave. Researchers will analyze tumor samples from 60 adults who are having surgery to remove their pituitary tumor. The goal is to find clues that could lead to new immune-based treatment…

This study analyzes the DNA of solid tumors from 5,500 cancer patients to find genetic changes that could be targeted by specific treatments. The goal is to use this molecular profile to match patients with appropriate clinical trials. Participants must have a confirmed solid tum…

This study is for people with advanced solid tumors who have run out of standard treatment options. Researchers will track how well off-label or non-standard therapies work when chosen based on the tumor's genetic profile. The goal is to create a standard way to measure responses…

This study involves 20 people undergoing awake brain surgery for tumors near the hand movement area. Surgeons will test different electrical stimulation frequencies (10 to 250 Hz) to see which ones best identify or even improve hand movement. The goal is to develop a more precise…

This early phase 1 trial is testing an oral drug called DSP-0390 in 20 people with IDH-mutant gliomas who are scheduled for tumor removal surgery. The goal is to see how much of the drug gets into the brain tumor and blood, and whether it affects cholesterol-related pathways. Par…

This pilot study is testing whether a combined PET-MRI scan can better detect if a child's brain tumor has returned after treatment. The study will include 5 children with high-grade gliomas or medulloblastomas who have unclear results from standard MRI. The main goal is to see i…

This study is testing a new, non-invasive brain monitor (Neurosteer) in 100 ICU patients who are on breathing machines and sedatives. The monitor is a small device placed on the forehead that measures brain activity. Researchers want to see if it can accurately track levels of se…

This study looks at why some stroke survivors develop long-term pain called central poststroke pain (CPP). Researchers will use brain scans to see how brain connections change in people with CPP. The goal is to better understand what causes this pain, which could lead to better t…
