Experimental brain tumor combo shows promise but trial halted early
Disease control Stopped earlyThis study tested a new drug called zotiraciclib (TG02) combined with the standard chemotherapy temozolomide in adults with recurrent anaplastic astrocytoma or glioblastoma. The goal was to find the safest dose and see if the combination worked better than temozolomide alone. The…

Early trial of experimental cancer drug halted; data still under review
Disease control Stopped earlyThis early-phase study tested a new drug called PF-07284890, alone or with another drug (binimetinib), in 65 people with advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change (BRAF V600 mutation), including cancers that spread to the brain. The trial was terminated early, but rese…

Rapid brain tumor detection device tested in operating room
Diagnosis Stopped earlyThis study tested a new imaging device called cCeLL-Ex vivo that uses laser microscopy to quickly detect brain tumors during surgery. The goal was to see if it could diagnose tumors faster than the standard frozen section method, which takes 20-30 minutes. The study enrolled 285 …

New imaging agent aims to spot Hard-to-Find cancers
Diagnosis Stopped earlyThis early-phase trial tested a radioactive imaging agent called 68Ga-FF58 in 14 adults with certain advanced solid tumors (glioblastoma, brain metastases from breast cancer, gastroesophageal cancer, or pancreatic cancer). The goal was to see if the agent could help detect these …

Brain tumor drug trial fizzles: only 3 patients enrolled
Symptom relief Stopped earlyThis early-phase trial tested whether brivaracetam, a seizure medication, is safe for people with diffuse gliomas (a type of brain tumor). Only 3 participants were enrolled before the study was terminated. The main goal was to track side effects, not to measure tumor shrinkage or…

Robot-Assisted brain biopsy study ends early – only 4 patients enrolled
Knowledge-focused Stopped earlyThis study looked at whether a robotic navigation device can help doctors take brain biopsies accurately. The goal was to see if the robot could achieve a 90% success rate in getting a clear tissue sample. Only 4 people with brain tumors took part before the study was stopped. Th…

Can scans and blood predict brain fog after radiation?
Knowledge-focused Stopped earlyThis study looked at whether repeated MRI scans and blood tests could predict changes in thinking and memory after brain radiation. Researchers enrolled 9 adults with brain tumors who were scheduled for radiation. They collected blood samples and performed advanced MRI scans over…

Brain tumor study looks at tiny molecule as possible clue
Knowledge-focused Stopped earlyThis study looked at a tiny molecule called microRNA-10b in people with brain tumors called gliomas. Researchers wanted to see if higher levels of this molecule could help predict how the disease might progress or how long patients might live. The study was stopped early, but it …
