NCT ID NCT05083754

First seen Jan 09, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This early-stage trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (retifanlimab) to standard treatment (carmustine wafers, radiation, and possibly temozolomide) is safe and helps people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma, a fast-growing brain cancer. About 50 adults who have already had surgery and received carmustine wafers will participate. The main goal is to find the best dose and check for side effects.
