New antibody drug takes aim at Hard-to-Treat brain cancers
NCT ID NCT05916313
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called BI 764532 in 20 adults with a type of brain tumor (glioma) that has a specific marker called DLL3 and hasn't improved with prior treatment. The drug is designed to link cancer cells to immune cells, helping the body fight the tumor. The main goal is to find a safe dose and see if it can be tolerated.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- BI 764532 (Obrixtamig), an antibody-like molecule that links cancer cells and immune T-cells
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with advanced glioma that hasn't responded to other therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early, small Phase 1 trial focused on safety and dosing, not yet on effectiveness. The drug may not shrink tumors or may cause side effects.
