New immunotherapy for CMV-positive glioblastoma
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new immunotherapy that targets the CMV virus inside your glioblastoma tumor. It is for people who have already completed standard radiation and chemotherapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older.
- You must have a newly diagnosed glioblastoma and your tumor must be MGMT-unmethylated (a specific type).
- You must have tested positive for CMV (a common virus).
- You must have had surgery to remove the tumor (not just a biopsy).
- You must have completed standard radiation and temozolomide chemotherapy.

This trial tests a personalized vaccine (made from your own immune cells and tumor 'neoantigens') combined with the chemotherapy drug temozolomide for people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The goal is to see if adding the vaccine helps the immune system better fight the tumor.
This trial tests whether adding a personalized vaccine made from your own immune cells and tumor can help standard chemotherapy and radiation work better against glioblastoma. It is for patients who have already had surgery and are starting or have just finished their first round of chemoradiation.
This trial tests a personalized vaccine made from your own immune cells (dendritic cells) to treat glioblastoma that has come back after standard treatment. The vaccine is designed to help your immune system recognize and attack your tumor.
This trial tests a personalized vaccine made from your own immune cells to see if it can help treat glioblastoma. If you are currently getting standard treatments like surgery, chemo, and radiation, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a new immunotherapy called PERCELLVAC-Sur that targets a protein (Survivin) found in glioblastoma tumors. It is given after standard radiation and chemotherapy, and the goal is to see if it helps the immune system fight the cancer more effectively.
This trial tests a new approach using immune cells called cytokine-induced killer cells to treat glioblastoma. It aims to find the best way to prepare these cells to fight the tumor.
