New treatment option for Glioblastoma, IDH-Wildtype
Official title GI-102 Alone or With Pembrolizumab Before Surgery for Treatment of Recurrent or Progressive IDH Wildtype Glioblastoma and IDH Mutated Grade 4 Astrocytoma
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07301268
What this study is testing
What is Bispecific CD80-lgG4Fc-IL-2v Fusion Protein GI-102?
Bispecific CD80-lgG4Fc-IL-2v Fusion Protein GI-102 is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for glioblastoma, idh-wildtype.
Also referred to as GI 102, GI-102.
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 compares the effect of GI-102 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab given before surgery in treating patients with IDH wildtype glioblastoma and IDH mutated grade 4 astrocytoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) or that is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive). Glioblastoma is the most common and the most aggressive primary brain tumor in adults.
- 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.
