NCT06710249

Brief Summary

The objective of this clinical trial is to explore the effects of Salovum®, an egg yolk powder enriched with the endogenous protein antisecretory factor, and SPC® flakes , hydrothermically processed oats, on cerebral edema with clinical symptoms in participants with brain tumors. The primary questions the trial seeks to answer are:

  • Can Salovum® and SPC® flakes have effect on clinical symptoms of tumor-induced cerebral edema?
  • Can Salovum® and SPC® flakes induce regression of radiological edema in tumor-induced cerebral edema Additionally, the study will investigate the impact of Salovum® and SPC® flakes in steroid refractory, steroid naïve cerebral edema and type of barin tumor Researchers will: Evaluate edema change from baseline by MRI after 14 days Evaluate neurological and cognitive symptoms Register dose of steroid medications Participants will:
  • Ingest Salovum® 11g three times daily for 14 days, thereafter tapered during 14 days
  • Ingest SPC® flakes 1g/kg daily from day 7

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of neurological symptoms

    To investigate whether Salovum® and SPC® flakes can change neurological symptoms in participants with tumor induced cerebral oedema as measured by the neurologic assessment in neurooncology (NANO) scale (range 0-23, 0 best-23 worst)

    28 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of cerebral edema

    28 days

Other Outcomes (3)

  • Change of symptoms from cerebral oedema in steroid naive participants

    28 days

  • Change of symptoms from cerebral oedema in steroid refractory cerebral oedema

    28 days

  • Change of symptoms from cerebral oedema in participants with diverse tumor types

    28 days
