Study Summary

This trial is testing several drugs to see if they can treat Glioblastoma, a type of brain tumor.

Who is the study for?
Adults (18+) with confirmed glioblastoma or gliosarcoma, who can swallow pills and have not had prior systemic or radiation therapy for it. They must have adequate organ function, no severe heart disease, uncontrolled diabetes, active infections, or other serious health issues that could affect study participation. Women of childbearing potential and men must use effective contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing several investigational drugs including Abemaciclib, Temozolomide (Temodar), Neratinib, CC115, and QBS10072S as possible treatments for Glioblastoma. Participants will be assigned to different treatment groups based on genetic markers related to their cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include fatigue, digestive issues like nausea and diarrhea, blood disorders such as low platelet counts or anemia, liver enzyme changes indicating liver stress or damage; also the risk of infection might increase due to lowered immune defenses.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

How many participants are engaged in this therapeutic experiment?

"This healthcare trial is no longer recruiting new patients. Initially posted on February 9th 2017, and last edited August 15th 2022, this study has since been closed to further admissions. However, 441 studies involving glioblastoma treatments remain open for patient recruitment as do 226 trials that employ Temozolomide."

Answered by AI

Is this research a pioneering endeavor?

"Temozolomide has been subject to clinical research since the year 2002, when Schering-Plough completed a 60 patient study. This was followed by Phase 2 drug approval and, presently, there are 226 active trials being conducted in 36 countries across 946 cities."

Answered by AI

Are there any vacancies available to participate in this clinical trial?

"Currently, this research is not taking on any new candidates. It was originally advertised in February 2017 and the listing was last modified on August 15th 2022. If you're looking for other trials related to glioblastoma or Temozolomide, there are 441 and 226 respective studies currently accepting participants."

Answered by AI

What risks do individuals face when taking Temozolomide?

"There is some evidence supporting temozolomide's safety, so it was assigned a score of 2. However, there are yet to be studies proving its efficacy in medical contexts."

Answered by AI

Have any other investigations been conducted with Temozolomide?

"First investigated in 2002 at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, temozolomide has since been studied extensively with a total of 328 studies completed. Currently, 226 trials are actively enrolling participants primarily based out of Boston."

Answered by AI

Is the research being conducted in numerous locations across Canada?

"For this medical trial, patients may enroll at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston ma, UT MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston tx, and Lifespan/Rhode island Hospital in Providence RI. Additionally, there are a dozen more locations participating."

Answered by AI

What medical conditions commonly call for the use of Temozolomide?

"Temozolomide is primarily employed to treat nitrosourea. It can additionally be prescribed for advanced directives, refractory mycosis fungoides and neuroblastoma that do not respond well to other treatments."
