Summary

This trial will study a personalized treatment for recurrent glioblastoma, and will aim to see if it is feasible to conduct a larger trial.

See full description

Who is the study for?

Adults over 18 with recurrent glioblastoma, not breastfeeding or pregnant, and willing to use contraception. Participants must have a performance status allowing daily activity (ECOG ≤2), be able to undergo brain MRIs, and have tumors suitable for resection. Excluded are those with certain heart, liver, kidney issues; gastrointestinal disorders; active infections; recent investigational drug use; other cancer treatments; or known psychiatric/substance abuse issues.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The trial is testing a personalized treatment regimen based on the genetic profile of each patient's tumor using drugs like Everolimus, Olaparib, Dasatinib, Afatinib, Palbociclib. It's an early-stage study to see if it's feasible to conduct larger trials and gather initial data on these interventions in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Potential side effects may include fatigue, nausea, diarrhea (specifically from Afatanib), blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems. There could also be liver function changes and potential heart rhythm abnormalities due to abnormal ECG readings.

Awards & Highlights

Approved for 20 Other Conditions

This treatment demonstrated efficacy for 20 other conditions.

No Placebo-Only Group

All patients enrolled in this study will receive some form of active treatment.

All Individual Drugs Already Approved

Therapies where all constituent drugs have already been approved are likely to have better-understood side effect profiles.
