Brain Tumor Clinical Trials

The Johnnie L. Cochran Brain Tumor Center is the coordination point for the physicians who specialize in clinical trials. The goal of the center is to shepherd basic research discoveries through patient trials and the government approval process. Researchers at Cedars-Sinai are racing to develop experimental treatments, and even vaccines, for fast-growing malignant tumors.

As a research facility, we often invite our patients to participate in clinical trials of new drugs and other therapies. The following links describe some of the cutting-edge research studies and clinical trials we are currently directing or have completed. For more information, visit our Research and Outcomes section.

  • Phase II Trial of Tumor Lysate-Pulsed Dendritic Cell Immunotherapy for Patients with Atypical or Malignant, Primary or Metastatic Brain Tumors of the Central Nervous System
  • 131I-TM-601 for Recurrent High Grade Glioma  (closed for recruitment)
  • Gliadel and Dendritic Cell Vaccine for Malignant Tumors
