Kogarah, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07391215RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Paxalisib for newly diagnosed glioblastoma after standard treatment
This trial tests a drug called paxalisib in people with a newly diagnosed aggressive brain tumor (glioblastoma) who have just finished standard radiation and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if adding paxalisib can help prevent the tumor from coming back by targeting a specific pathway in the cancer cells.
SuttonAges 16 years+ - NCT06616727Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell treatment (SNC-109) for people with glioblastoma that has come back after initial treatment. The therapy uses your own immune cells, modified in a lab, to try to attack the tumor.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05086497Recruiting
Personal TTFields device guided by imaging for brain tumor
This trial tests whether using a personalized TTFields device—placed based on imaging—can help treat adults with glioblastoma (GBM) after surgery and radiation. It’s designed for specific GBM genetic types and may help deliver therapy more precisely.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 22 years+ - NCT04765514RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo with radiation versus chemo alone for older brain tumor patients
This trial compares two standard treatments for newly diagnosed glioblastoma (a serious brain cancer) in older and frail patients: chemo plus radiation versus chemo alone. It may help determine which approach works best and is safest for people in your age and health group.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 65 years+ - NCT04765098RecruitingPhase 2
Tamoxifen or Etoposide for recurring brain tumor after prior treatment
