This is a 3-part study. The purpose of Part 1 of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of safusidenib in participants with recurrent/progressive IDH1-mutant World Health Organization (WHO) Grade 2 or Grade 3 glioma.

The purpose of Part 2 will be to evaluate the efficacy of maintenance safusidenib treatment versus placebo in IDH1-mutant Grade 2 or Grade 3 astrocytoma with high-risk features or IDH1-mutant Grade 4 astrocytoma, following standard-of-care radiation or chemoradiation and adjuvant temozolomide. Part 2 will be randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled.

The purpose of Part 3 will be to evaluate the efficacy of safusidenib in participants with residual or recurrent IDH1-mutant Grade 3 oligodendroglioma who have received surgery as their only treatment. Part 3 will be an open-label single-arm cohort and will enroll participants concurrently with Part 2.

This research study is studying several investigational drugs as a possible treatment for Glioblastoma (GBM). The drugs involved in this study are : - Abemaciclib - Temozolomide (temodar) - Neratinib - CC115

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of AG-881 to placebo in participants with residual or recurrent Grade 2 glioma with an IDH1 or IDH2 mutation who have undergone surgery as their only treatment. Participants will be required to have central confirmation of IDH mutation status prior to randomization.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of marizomib in combination with Temozolomide-based radiochemotherapy versus standard Temozolomide-based radiochemotherapy alone in newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients. 

This randomized phase II trial studies how well oncolytic measles virus encoding thyroidal sodium iodide symporter (MV-NIS) compared to investigator's choice chemotherapy works in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian, or peritoneal cancer. Measles virus, which has been changed in a certain way, may be able to kill tumor cells without damaging normal cells.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether there is superiority of overall survival (OS) when enzastaurin rather than placebo is added to the regimen of temozolomide with radiation therapy followed by temozolomide for the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma in Denovo Genomic Marker 1 (DGM1) biomarker-positive patients.

This phase II trial studies how well vismodegib and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitor GSK2256098 work in treating patients with meningiomas that may have gotten bigger or grew back after treatment. Vismodegib and FAK inhibitor GSK2256098 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

This phase II trial studies how well vemurafenib and cobimetinib work in treating patients with BRAF V600E mutation positive craniopharyngioma. Vemurafenib and cobimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

The purpose for this study is to find out if MEDI5395 and durvalumab will work and be safe for the treatment of solid tumors.

The primary purposes of this study are to identify experimental therapies that improve OS for GBM patients in the Screening stage (Stage 1), determining if predefined patient subtypes or associated biomarkers uniquely benefit from the treatment and to confirm identified effective experimental therapies and associated biomarker signatures in an expansion stage (Stage 2) designed to support a new drug application.

The purpose of this study is to collect minimal risk normal samples, both prospectively collected and those stored at the patient's home institution and any outside institutions, along with clinical data. For this same end, the study provides for a wide scope of research, including detailed genetic analysis, and provides mechanisms for reporting of results back to participants and/or their treating physicians.

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a gene-modified virus may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of viral therapy in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.

This partially randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 when given together with bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with glioblastoma multiforme that has come back. Monoclonal antibodies, such as anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 and bevacizumab, may find tumor cells and help kill them. Giving anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 together with bevacizumab may be an effective treatment for glioblastoma multiforme.

RATIONALE: Dasatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also block the growth of the tumor by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether bevacizumab together with dasatinib are more effective than a placebo in treating patients with recurrent or progressive high-grade glioma or glioblastoma multiforme. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I/II trial (Phase I completed) is studying the side effects and best dose of dasatinib when given together with bevacizumab and to see how well it works compared to placebo in treating patients with recurrent or progressive high-grade glioma or glioblastoma multiforme.
