Recruiting now Disease control Sponsor: Jazz Pharmaceuticals Source: ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This Phase 3 trial tests the drug ONC201 (dordaviprone) in people newly diagnosed with a rare brain cancer called H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma. Participants receive either ONC201 or a placebo after completing standard radiotherapy. The study aims to see if the drug helps them live longer and delays tumor growth.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Dordaviprone (ONC201)
What this could lead to: If successful, this could provide a new treatment option that extends survival for people with this rare and aggressive brain tumor.
What could go wrong: This is a Phase 3 trial, but the drug may not improve survival compared to placebo. Side effects are possible, and results may not apply to all patients.
