What This Trial Is Studying

WinGlio is a phase I study investigating neoadjuvant (before surgery) ipilimumab ( a type of immunotherapy drug) in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (a form of brain cancer). Participants will receive up to 2 cycles of ipilimumab prior to the standard of care treatments for this patient group which can include debulking surgery and chemoradiation. The aim of giving the ipilimumab to the participants is to see if it is safe to treat patients with this condition with ipilimumab and also to see if the drug helps to reduce or…
