Learn More About PowerSelinexor + Temozolomide for Recurrent Glioblastoma
Chicago, IllinoisThis trial tests selinexor with temozolomide for patients whose brain cancer has returned. Selinexor blocks a protein that helps cancer cells grow, and temozolomide damages their DNA to kill them or stop their growth. Temozolomide is a DNA methylating drug currently used as a first-line treatment in glioblastoma therapy.

Ultrasound-Assisted Chemotherapy for Glioblastoma
Chicago, IllinoisThis trial tests a new method to treat recurrent brain cancer using an ultrasound device called SonoCloud-9. The device helps open the brain's protective barrier so that more of the chemotherapy drug carboplatin can reach the tumor. The goal is to see if this combination makes the treatment more effective. Carboplatin has been used in various studies for treating high-grade gliomas and glioblastomas, often showing modest efficacy due to low tissue concentration when delivered intravenously.

Relatlimab + Nivolumab for Recurrent Glioblastoma
Chicago, IllinoisThis phase II trial compares the safety, side effects and effectiveness of anti-lag-3 (relatlimab) and anti-PD-1 blockade (nivolumab) to standard of care lomustine for the treatment of patients with glioblastoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Relatlimab and nivolumab are monoclonal antibodies that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Lomustine is a chemotherapy drug and in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It damages the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. Relatlimab and nivolumab may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective compared to standard of care lomustine in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

Triapine + Temozolomide for Brain Tumors
Chicago, IllinoisThis phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of triapine in combination with temozolomide in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Triapine inhibits an enzyme responsible for producing molecules required for the production of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which may inhibit tumor cell growth. Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's DNA and may kill tumor cells and slow down or stop tumor growth. Giving triapine in combination with temozolomide may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

Ultrasound-assisted Chemotherapy for Glioblastoma
Chicago, IllinoisPaclitaxel is among the most active agents against glioblastoma in preclinical models. However, its clinical use has been hampered by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In this trial we will implant a novel device with 9 ultrasound emitters allowing to temporarily and reversibly open the BBB immediately prior to chemotherapy infusion with albumin-bound paclitaxel.
In the phase 1 component, increasing doses of chemotherapy will be delivered as long deemed safe based on the prior patient not experiencing severe toxicity. Once the the recommended dosing has been established, carboplatin will be added to the regimen and additional patients will be treated in order to better evaluate the antitumor efficacy of this novel treatment.
The device will be implanted at the time of surgical resection of the recurrent tumor. During that procedure and when feasible, a first test dose of the chemotherapy will be administered in the operating room after sonication (procedure of activating ultrasound and opening the BBB) and tissue concentrations in different parts of the resected tumor will be measured. In select patients, the sonication procedure may occur immediately after the test dose of chemotherapy is administered.
The objectives of this trial are to establish a safe and effective dose of albumin-bound paclitaxel, to demonstrate that the opening of the BBB increases chemotherapy concentration in the tumor, and to estimate how effective this treatment is in reducing the tumor burden and prolonging life.

Vorinostat + Temozolomide for Brain Cancer
Madison, WisconsinThis phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with temozolomide in treating patients with malignant gliomas. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Vorinostat may help temozolomide work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Giving vorinostat together with temozolomide may kill more tumor cells.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Recurrent Glioblastoma clinical trials in Chicago, IL pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do Recurrent Glioblastoma clinical trials in Chicago, IL work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Recurrent Glioblastoma trials in Chicago, IL 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in Chicago, IL for Recurrent Glioblastoma is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in Chicago, IL several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a Recurrent Glioblastoma medical study in Chicago, IL ?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
What are the newest Recurrent Glioblastoma clinical trials in Chicago, IL ?
Most recently, we added Relatlimab + Nivolumab for Recurrent Glioblastoma, Triapine + Temozolomide for Brain Tumors and Ultrasound-Assisted Chemotherapy for Glioblastoma to the Power online platform.
