JK-1201I plus temozolomide for newly diagnosed glioblastoma
This trial tests a new drug called JK-1201I combined with the standard chemotherapy temozolomide after you finish your initial radiation and chemo. It is for people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who have had most of their tumor removed and are now ready for the next phase of treatment.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06649851RecruitingPhase 2
G-CSF to reduce side effects during glioblastoma treatment
This trial is testing whether a drug called G-CSF (which helps boost white blood cells) can help people with glioblastoma who are already receiving standard treatment with radiation and chemotherapy (temozolomide). It aims to see if G-CSF can reduce side effects and improve outcomes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07648823RecruitingEarly Phase 1
New radioactive treatment for recurrent brain tumors
This early-stage trial tests a new radioactive drug called [177Lu]Lu-XT771 injected directly into the brain cavity after glioblastoma surgery. It measures whether the drug is safe and helps slow tumor regrowth in patients whose cancer has come back after earlier treatments.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07143812RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell gene therapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma
This trial tests a new stem cell-based gene therapy for people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who have already received standard treatment. The goal is to see if it is safe and potentially effective.
