ClinicaliQ Trial Snapshot
  • A Study Assessing if it is Safe and Possible to Treat Brain Cancer Patients With Immunotherapy Before They Receive the Standard Treatment. — Recruiting • Phase I • Oncology • NCT07134842.
  • What is being tested: Neoadjuvant ipilimumab (an immune checkpoint inhibitor) administered before standard surgical treatment in newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients, evaluating both safety and feasibility of this sequencing approach.
  • Patient eligibility overview: Adults with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who are candidates for surgery, with adequate organ function and performance status, excluding those with prior brain cancer treatment or significant comorbidities that would contraindicate immunotherapy.

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…
