New treatment option for Glioma
Official title Treatment of Patients With Recurrent High-Grade Glioma With APG-157 and Bevacizumab
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06011109
What this study is testing
What is APG-157?
APG-157 is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily, being studied as a potential treatment for glioma.
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
- The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the efficacy of APG-157 in combination with Bevacizumab in subjects with recurrent high-grade glioma. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Progression-free and overall survival of patients receiving this combination; Quality of Life (QOL); and Tumor response on imaging The participants will take APG-157 daily by dissolving two pastilles in their mouth at around breakfast, lunch and dinner time (total of six pastilles per day).
- 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.
