Outcomes and immune response after peptide vaccination targeting human cytomegalovirus antigen pp65 in children and young adults with recurrent high-grade glioma and medulloblastoma

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · January 1, 2024 Background: The human cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigen pp65 is ubiquitously expressed in high-grade glioma (HGG) and medulloblastoma but not in adjacent brain. The primary objective of this first-in-human phase I trial (NCT03299309) was to assess the safety a ... Full text Cite

Results from a first-in-human phase 1B study of a complement factor H inhibitor (GT103) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · June 1, 2023 9128 Background: GT103 is a first-in-class IgG3 monoclonal antibody that was derived from a single human B cell and inhibits complement factor H (CFH).

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · May 20, 2021 1041 Background: BCBMs are very common in metastatic HER2+ breast cancer. CNS-directed local therapy is the gold standard for treatment, followed by systemic HER2-targeted therapies. In patients with HER2+ BCBM and stable extracr ... Full text Cite

Safety of nivolumab in combination with dendritic cell vaccines in recurrent high-grade glioma.

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · May 20, 2019 e13526 Background: Recurrence of high-grade glioma (HGG) (WHO grade III-IV) is a nearly universal phenomenon and necessitates the development of new therapeutic modalities. Two possible immunotherapeutic modalities are checkpoint ... Full text Cite

Effects of Non-Linear or Linear Aerobic Training (AT) Dosing Regimens on Impaired Cardiovascular (CV) Function in Patients with Operable Breast Cancer: A Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT).

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · May 20, 2019 541 Background: Breast cancer therapy causes marked impairments in CV function predisposing to elevated risk of CV morbidity. We investigated the effects of two AT dosing regimens on CV function in post-treatment patients with op ... Full text Cite

Oncolytic polio/rhinovirus recombinant (PVSRIPO) against WHO grade IV malignant glioma (MG): Experience with retreatment of survivors from the phase I trial.

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · May 20, 2019 2060 Background: We completed a study evaluating a single intratumoral delivery of PVSRIPO in recurrent WHO grade IV MG patients (N Engl J Med. 2018 Jul 12;379(2):150-161). Some patients who originally benefitted from the infusion of PVSRIPO demonstrated ... Full text Link to item Cite

PATTERNS OF RELAPSE AFTER SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF INITIAL THERAPY IN PRIMARY CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM LYMPHOMA

Conference Neuro-Oncology · November 1, 2017 RATE-36 INTRODUCTION Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a subtype of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that involves the brain, spinal cord or leptomeninges, without evidence of systemic disease. This rare disease accounts for ~3% of all primary centr ... Full text Link to item Cite

Dose finding study of the intratumoral administration of the oncolytic polio/rhinovirus recombinant (PVSRIPO) against WHO grade IV malignant glioma (MG).

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · May 20, 2017 e13533 Background: The live attenuated oral poliovirus vaccine was modified to contain a heterologous internal ribosomal entry site stemming from human rhinovirus type 2, creating PVSRIPO. PVSRIPO recognizes CD155, an oncofetal c ... Full text Link to item Cite

Phase 1 single-center, dose escalation study of D2C7-IT administered intratumorally via convection-enhanced delivery for adult patients with recurrent malignant glioma.

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · May 20, 2017 e13532 Background: D2C7 immunotoxin (D2C7-IT) is a dual-specific recombinant immunotoxin consisting of EGFR-wt and EGFRvIII monoclonal antibodies with a genetically engineered Pseudomonas exotoxin, PE-38KDEL. The primary objectiv ... Full text Link to item Cite

Reductions in exercise behavior and tumor progression in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) patients.

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · May 20, 2017 e21636 Background: At diagnosis, GBM patients face the immediate challenge of significant morbidity and mortality. In this population, we have shown that better exercise behavior is an independent prognostic factor for improved s ... Full text Link to item Cite

Tumor stem cell RNA-leaded dedritic cell vaccine for recurrent glioblastoma: a phase 1 trail.

Conference Neurology · April 27, 2017 Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of administering brain tumor stem cell (BTSC) mRNA-loaded dendritic cells (DC) to patients with recurrent GBM. Background: BTSC CD133+ contribute to GBM propagation and are associated with chemo-radiation ... Link to item Cite

Phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous palonosetron (PAL) in primary malignant glioma (MG) patients receiving standard radiotherapy (RT) and concomitant temozolomide (TMZ).

Conference Support Care Cancer · October 2016 BACKGROUND: In malignant glioma (MG) patients undergoing radiation therapy (RT) with concomitant temozolomide, chemoradiation-induced nausea and vomiting (cRINV) degrades quality of life (QoL) and reduces treatment adherence, which thereby potentially comp ...
