Engineered immune cells take on deadly brain tumor
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis early-phase trial tests a new type of immunotherapy for recurrent glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer. The treatment uses a patient's own immune cells, engineered to target a protein called EGFRvIII found on tumor cells, and modified to work better in the tumor's enviro…

Oxygen-Enhanced MRI could sharpen radiotherapy for deadly brain cancers
Diagnosis Not yet recruitingThis study tests whether oxygen-enhanced MRI (OE-MRI) can identify low-oxygen (hypoxic) regions in high-grade gliomas, the most common and aggressive adult brain cancers. Twenty-five patients will undergo OE-MRI scans before, during, and after standard radiotherapy. Researchers w…
