New treatment option for Glioblastoma Multiforme
Official title hSTAR GBM (Hematopoetic Stem Cell (HPC) Rescue for GBM)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05052957
What this study is testing
What is P140K-MGMT?
P140K-MGMT is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for glioblastoma multiforme.
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 phase II trial studies the effect of P140K MGMT hematopoietic stem cells, O6-benzylguanine, temozolomide, and carmustine in treating participants with supratentorial glioblastoma or gliosarcoma who have recently had surgery to remove most or all of the brain tumor (resected). Chemotherapy drugs, such as 6-benzylguanine, temozolomide, and carmustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
