Study Summary

This trial tests if a supplement called Liposomal Curcumin is safe & effective in treating High-Grade Gliomas when used with radiation & chemotherapy.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with newly diagnosed High-Grade Gliomas, including GBM and other types, suitable for RT/TMZ treatment. Must have good organ function, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, no recent heart issues or active infections requiring antibiotics. HIV-positive patients can join if undetectable viral load. Participants must agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of Liposomal Curcumin (LC) when used alongside standard radiotherapy (RT) and Temozolomide (TMZ). The study will observe how well patients tolerate this combination therapy during different treatment periods: adjuvant, post-CRT, and concurrent CRT.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions similar to those from compounds like LC such as allergic responses. Other risks could involve typical chemotherapy-related side effects like fatigue, digestive problems, blood disorders but specific side effect profiles of LC will be monitored.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Tolerability, Safety, and Efficacy of LC in Combination with RT and TMZExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Define the MTD/recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of LC, administered IV weekly in combination with standard CRT (60 Gy in 30-33 fractions M-F, and daily oral TMZ 75 mg/m2), in patients with high grade malignant gliomas. This study seeks the MTD/RP2D of LC when added to TMZ during concurrent RT and adjuvant TMZ after RT. The study will evaluate escalating doses of LC delivered by IV infusion weekly as a gravity infusion (without infusion pump). Within each cohort, the dose will remain the same. In the first cohort, dosing will begin at Level 1 (300 mg/m2). The infusion of LC will begin at the start of CRT. Patients will be evaluable for the cohort if they have completed 80% of the planned doses of LC, 80% of RT and 60% of TMZ within the first 10 weeks of treatment. Patients who experience a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) will be evaluable for the cohort if they have received at least 1 dose of LC.
