Summary

This trial tests a new drug combo to treat newly-diagnosed glioblastoma to see if it's safe & effective.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with a specific brain cancer called glioblastoma (GBM), IDH-wildtype, who have finished radiation therapy and most of their initial chemo with temozolomide. They need good blood, kidney, liver function and agree to use birth control. It's not for those with recent serious heart issues, uncontrolled diabetes or other cancers, active infections, prior Optune treatment or poorly controlled seizures.
What is being tested?
The study tests different doses of Eflornithine in combination with Temozolomide to find the safest and most effective dose for treating newly diagnosed GBM patients. The goal is also to check how well patients tolerate this drug combo.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include typical reactions from chemotherapy like nausea, vomiting, fatigue, hair loss and increased risk of infection due to lowered white blood cell counts. Specific side effects related to Eflornithine are not detailed but may be similar.
