Summary

This trial is testing a new drug to treat brain cancer. The goal is to see if it is safe and tolerated by patients.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with recurrent glioblastoma who've had 1-2 prior treatments. They must have a tumor size within specific limits, be in good physical condition (KPS ≥ 70), and expect to live more than 12 weeks. Participants need normal organ function and agree to use birth control. Excluded are those with certain medical conditions, CNS infections, increased steroids recently, immunosuppressive drugs within the last month, or active infections like hepatitis or COVID-19.
What is being tested?
The study tests C5252 given as a single injection directly into the tumor of patients with glioblastoma to assess its safety and tolerability. It's an early-stage trial (Phase 1) where everyone gets the same experimental treatment without any comparison group.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects aren't specified but may include typical reactions related to immune therapies such as inflammation at the injection site, flu-like symptoms, fatigue, allergic reactions or worsening of neurological symptoms due to brain swelling.
