B-cell vaccine with standard treatment for glioblastoma
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new vaccine (Bvax) added to the usual chemotherapy and radiation for glioblastoma. It aims to train your immune system to fight the tumor and possibly improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of glioblastoma (a type of brain cancer).
- There must be enough tumor tissue from your surgery (at least 1.5 grams) to make the vaccine.
- You must not have had any other cancer treatments besides surgery or standard chemotherapy and radiation.
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You should be in reasonably good health (able to care for yourself, but not necessarily fully active).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a vaccine made from your own immune cells to fight glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. It may help your body attack the cancer more effectively after standard treatments.
This trial tests an experimental 'vaccine' made from your own immune cells (dendritic cells). The vaccine is designed to train your immune system to attack the brain tumor. It is for people whose glioblastoma has returned or progressed after standard treatment.
This trial tests a personalized vaccine made from your own immune cells that targets a protein (survivin) found on your tumor. It is given alongside the standard radiation and chemotherapy to see if it helps fight the cancer.
This trial tests an experimental immunotherapy made from your own immune cells, designed to train them to attack a protein (survivin) found in glioblastoma. It is a phase 1 study, meaning it is one of the first times this treatment is being tested in people, and it is given alongside standard radiation and chemotherapy.
This trial studies a gene-based treatment (HSV-tk) given with radiation and chemotherapy for people newly diagnosed with glioblastoma or anaplastic astrocytoma. It may help the new brain tumor respond better to standard treatments, though risks and benefits are still being tested.
This trial tests a personalized vaccine (made from your own cells) combined with a common chemotherapy drug, temozolomide, for people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The goal is to train your immune system to fight the tumor and hopefully slow its growth.
