Repurposed transplant drug enters fight against deadly brain cancer

NCT ID NCT05236036

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing whether adding a drug called mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) to standard glioblastoma treatment is safe and might make the cancer more sensitive to chemotherapy. MMF is an immunosuppressant commonly used to prevent organ rejection after transplants. The study will enroll about 60 adults with newly diagnosed or recurrent glioblastoma to find the safest dose and see if the combination can help control the disease.
