New treatment option for H3 K27M
Official title ONC201 in H3 K27M-mutant Diffuse Glioma Following Radiotherapy (the ACTION Study)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05580562
What this study is testing
What is Dordaviprone (ONC201)?
Dordaviprone (ONC201) is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for h3 k27m.
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 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, international, Phase 3 study in patients with newly diagnosed H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma to assess whether treatment with dordaviprone (ONC201) following frontline radiotherapy will extend overall survival and progression-free survival in this population. Eligible participants will have histologically diagnosed H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma and have completed standard frontline radiotherapy.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
