Clinical Trials Vamsi K. Vasireddy is currently running
Lomustine + Standard Therapy
for Glioblastoma
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding lomustine to temozolomide and radiation therapy versus temozolomide and radiation therapy alone in shrinking or stabilizing newly diagnosed MGMT methylated glioblastoma. Chemotherapy drugs, such as lomustine and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy photons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Adding lomustine to usual treatment of temozolomide and radiation therapy may help shrink and stabilize glioblastoma.

This trial is testing a new treatment combining an immune-boosting drug with standard chemotherapy for patients with a specific type of aggressive cancer that has spread. The goal is to help the immune system fight the cancer and use chemotherapy to kill cancer cells.
