Tests treatment safety and results for Glioma
Official title Maximum Tolerated Dose, Safety, and Efficacy of Rhenium Nanoliposomes in Recurrent Glioma (ReSPECT)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT01906385
What this study is testing
What is Rhenium Liposome Treatment?
Rhenium Liposome Treatment is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for glioma.
Also referred to as Rhenium-186 NanoLiposome.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a multi-center, sequential cohort, open-label, volume and dose escalation study of the safety, tolerability, and distribution of 186RNL given by convection enhanced delivery to patients with recurrent or progressive malignant glioma after standard surgical, radiation, and/or chemotherapy treatment. The study uses a modified Fibonacci dose escalation, followed by an expansion at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) to determine efficacy.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Time commitment: about 36 months
