Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called rhIL-7-hyFc in people with high-grade glioma, a type of brain cancer. The goal is to see if the drug can safely increase the number of infection-fighting white blood cells (lymphocytes) that often drop after standard radiation and chemotherapy. About 42 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo to measure its effect on their immune system.
