Summary

This trial will test the safety and effectiveness of a new drug, AZD1390, for treating brain tumors.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with brain cancer who have completed first-line radiation at least 6 months ago, are willing to take anti-epileptic drugs if needed, and have their disease under control. They must not have had recent chemotherapy or certain other treatments and should be able to undergo MRI scans. People with severe medical conditions, a history of significant brain injury or stroke, uncontrolled seizures, or those on strong CYP3A4 inhibitors/inducers are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests AZD1390 in combination with radiation therapy on patients with brain tumors. It's the first time this drug is being used on humans and will assess its safety and how it's processed by the body when given in different doses alongside various radiation schedules.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since AZD1390 is investigational and new to human trials, specific side effects aren't fully known yet but may include typical reactions related to similar therapies such as fatigue, skin irritation from radiation, nausea, headaches or potential neurological effects.
