Aggressive combo therapy takes on tough brain cancer
NCT ID NCT07670026
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This phase II trial tests whether an intensified treatment plan can delay tumor growth in adults with high-risk glioblastoma that was only partially removed or came back quickly. Participants receive higher radiation doses to the remaining tumor, plus chemotherapy and two immunotherapy drugs (sintilimab and bevacizumab) for up to a year. The study will track how long people live without their cancer worsening, overall survival, side effects, and quality of life.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- sintilimab, bevacizumab, temozolomide, and higher-dose radiation
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a more effective treatment strategy for high-risk glioblastoma that is hard to treat with standard therapy.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase (phase II) study with only 31 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The intensified regimen also carries higher risks of side effects like radiation necrosis.
