New treatment option for Diffuse Midline Glioma, H3 K27M-Mutant
Official title CD200AR-L and Allogeneic Tumor Lysate Vaccine Immunotherapy for Recurrent HGG and Newly Diagnosed DMG/DIPG in Children and Young Adults
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06305910
What this study is testing
What is Treatment with CD200AR-L?
Treatment with CD200AR-L is an investigational medicine, given as a treatment applied to the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for diffuse midline glioma, h3 k27m-mutant.
Also referred to as Imiquimod, GBM6-AD.
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 single center Phase I study of a new adjuvant CD200 activation receptor ligand, CD200AR-L, in combination with imiquimod and GBM6-AD vaccine to treat malignant glioma in children and young adults. The primary objective of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CD200AR-L when given with a fixed dose of GBM6-AD vaccine, imiquimod, and a single dose of radiation for patients with recurrent High Grade Glioma (HGG) or following standard of care therapy radiation therapy for newly diagnosed Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Midline Glioma/Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG/DMG).
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
