Study Summary

This trial is looking at whether it's possible to generate an investigational vaccine for patients with brain cancer who have already started chemotherapy.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with newly diagnosed Glioblastoma who've finished radiation and are on Temozolomide therapy can join. They need a Karnofsky score of at least 70, stable steroid doses, good organ function, and no severe illnesses or prior invasive cancers (except skin cancer) in the last 3 years. Women must not be pregnant and participants must use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a personalized vaccine made from patients' own immune cells loaded with CMV RNA to treat Glioblastoma. It's for those who have completed initial treatment and are now on maintenance chemotherapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to the immune system such as inflammation, flu-like symptoms due to GM-CSF, fatigue, injection site reactions, and potential complications from drawing blood to make the vaccine.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is it feasible to enroll in this experiment at the present moment?

"Affirmative. According to the information provided on clinicaltrials.gov, this clinical trial is currently seeking participants and was launched in January 13th 2022 with a recent update posted on April 29th of the same year. A total of 10 subjects need to be enrolled at 1 medical centre."

Answered by AI

Who is eligible to enroll in this research endeavor?

"To be eligible for this trial, participants must have glioblastoma and within the ages of 18 to 90. The study is currently recruiting a maximum of 10 patients."

Answered by AI

How many participants has this trial recruited thus far?

"Affirmative. Clinicaltrials.gov reports that this medical trial, initially published on January 13th 2022, is presently recruiting patients. 10 subjects are needed from a single healthcare centre for the study to be completed successfully."

Answered by AI

Has the FDA sanctioned Autologous DCs which are sourced from PBMC and loaded with RNA coding for human CMV matrix protein pp65-flLAMP alongside GM-CSF?

"The safety of Autologous DCs derived from PBMC loaded with RNA encoding the human CMV matrix protein pp65-flLAMP plus GM-CSF is only assumed to be minimal due to its being a Phase 1 trial and there being limited data available on both efficacy and safety."

Answered by AI

Is this research endeavor accepting participants aged 25 or older?

"According to the requirements for admission, participants must be between 18 and 90 years old in order to take part."
