Glioblastoma Multiforme of Brain clinical trials in California
We’re tracking 10 recruiting glioblastoma multiforme of brain studies with a site in California — including Phase 1, Phase 1/Phase 2 and Phase 2 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in California
- NCT06146725Recruiting
Resection vs. biopsy in high-grade glioma patients
This study compares whether having surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible (resection) or just taking a small sample (biopsy) leads to better outcomes for people with a fast-growing brain tumor (high-grade glioma). The goal is to help guide treatment decisions.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT06273176Recruiting
Surgery with or without brain mapping for recurrent glioblastoma
This study is testing whether using a special brain-mapping technique during surgery helps people with recurrent glioblastoma. It compares standard surgery to surgery with mapping to see if it leads to better outcomes for tumors near important brain areas.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges Up to 90 years - NCT06283927Recruiting
Surgery vs. medical care for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial compares surgery to the best non-surgical treatment for people whose glioblastoma has come back. The goal is to see which approach helps people live longer with a better quality of life.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT06059690RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Imaging brain tumors to guide glioblastoma treatment
This trial studies a special imaging scan that combines MRI and PET to find active tumor areas in patients with glioblastoma. It aims to see if the scan can help identify the most aggressive parts of the tumor for surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05474378RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This early-phase study tests a type of immune-cell treatment (CAR T cells) aimed at a target called B7-H3 in people with glioblastoma or related grade 4 brain tumors that have come back. It’s meant to see if the treatment can shrink the tumor or control the disease and to learn how safe it is.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07326566RecruitingPhase 2
Silevertinib and chemo for a type of glioblastoma
This trial tests a new drug, silevertinib, combined with temozolomide (a chemotherapy) for people with a newly diagnosed glioblastoma that has certain genetic markers. It aims to see if this combination works better than standard treatment for tumors with these specific features.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03175224RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug APL-101 for lung or other tumors with MET changes
This Phase 2 study tests APL-101 to shrink advanced cancers that have certain MET-related changes, including specific MET mutations, MET gene amplification, or MET fusions. It may help people whose tumors have run out of standard treatment options.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06118723Recruiting
Supramaximal vs maximal surgery for brain tumors
This trial compares removing as much tumor as safely possible (supramaximal resection) with standard maximal resection in people with high-grade glioma (an aggressive brain tumor). The goal is to see if more extensive removal improves survival and quality of life.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT05303467RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of a glioblastoma device for recurring tumors
This early study tests whether a device called TheraSphere is safe when delivered into the brain to treat recurrent glioblastoma. It may help patients by trying a targeted treatment approach, while doctors carefully monitor side effects and safety.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06810544RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of TNG456 for tumors with MTAP loss
This trial tests a new drug called TNG456, alone or with another drug (abemaciclib), for people whose tumors have lost the MTAP gene. It aims to see if the combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.

What taking part in a glioblastoma multiforme of brain study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there glioblastoma multiforme of brain clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 10 recruiting glioblastoma multiforme of brain studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a glioblastoma multiforme of brain study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a glioblastoma multiforme of brain trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
