Brain cancer vaccine targets survivin protein to boost immune attack
NCT ID NCT07715097
First seen Jul 20, 2026 · Last updated Jul 21, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase II trial tests whether a personalized dendritic cell vaccine targeting the Survivin protein can improve survival in people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer. Participants receive the vaccine alongside standard chemotherapy after surgery. The study aims to see if this immune-boosting approach helps control the disease.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- a personalized dendritic cell vaccine that targets the Survivin protein, given alongside standard chemotherapy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could extend survival for people with glioblastoma, a brain cancer with few effective treatments.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The vaccine may cause immune-related side effects or fail to improve outcomes.
