Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, RMC-5552, to see if it can help treat glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. The new drug works by preventing the formation of a protein called mTOR, which is involved in cancer cell growth.

Who is the study for?
Adults with a first recurrence of glioblastoma, who've completed standard treatments including radiation and chemotherapy. They must have measurable disease per RANO criteria, adequate organ function, and no major health issues that could interfere with the trial. Participants should not be pregnant or breastfeeding and must agree to use effective contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing RMC-5552, an mTOR inhibitor believed to stop cancer cell growth by preventing the formation of mTOR proteins. It's for patients whose glioblastoma has returned after initial treatment. The study will determine the safest dose, side effects, and potential effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Specific side effects are not listed but may include typical reactions to mTOR inhibitors such as mouth sores (stomatitis), high blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia), lung problems like pneumonitis or interstitial lung disease, fatigue, digestive issues, skin rash and increased risk of infections.

Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Cohort C (Dose Expansion, Recurrent Non-surgical GBM)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will be given the RP2D of RMC-5552 weekly in 21-day cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
Group II: Cohort B (Dose Expansion, Recurrent Surgical GBM)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive a single dose of RMC-5552 at the RP2D approximately 4 hours prior to participants' scheduled surgical resection as part of standard of care. After recovering from surgery (about 3-6 weeks), participants will continue receiving RMC-5552 weekly in 21-day cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Group III: Cohort A2 (Dose Escalation, Recurrent Non-surgical GBM)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants receive dose level 2 (12 mg) of RMC-5552 administered intravenously if the toxicity profile from participants in dose level 1 (A1) is acceptable. Participants will receive RMC-5552 weekly in 21-day cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Group IV: Cohort A 1(Dose Escalation, Recurrent Non-surgical GBM)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will start at dose level 1 (6 mg) of RMC-5552 administered intravenously. Participants will receive RMC-5552 weekly in 21-day cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

What outcomes is the research team hoping to achieve?

"This 3-year clinical trial's primary objective is to assess the median concentration of RMC-5552 in plasma for Cohort B. Secondary endpoints consist of Area under the Plasma Concentration Time Curve (AUC) for participants in both Cohorts A and C, Median Duration of Response for Cohort A, and Proportion of Participants with detectable levels of pAKT in Tumor Tissue from Cohort B. All pharmacokinetic parameters will be determined through non-compartmental analysis methods while all pharmacodynamic markers shall relate to mTORC1 pathway inhibition assessment within fresh tumour tissue specimens as well as archived"

Answered by AI

Are there any opportunities for prospective participants to join this experiment?

"According to clinicaltrials.gov, this specific medical trial is no longer recruiting participants; however, there are currently 1391 other studies that still require patients. This experiment was first posted on November 1st 2022 and the most recent update occurred at the end of September in the same year."

Answered by AI

Has the Cohort A (Dose Escalation, Recurrent Non-surgical GBM) protocol been accorded clearance by the FDA?

"Our team at Power assigned Cohort A (Dose Escalation, Recurrent Non-surgical GBM) a safety score of 1 due to the limited evidence that exists in Phase 1 trials regarding treatment efficacy and patient safety."
