Can an Oxygen-Boosting drug help when all else fails?
NCT ID NCT07748299
First seen Aug 05, 2026 · Last updated Aug 06, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This program allows doctors to request NanO₂, an investigational drug that may help deliver oxygen to tissues, for patients with serious or life-threatening conditions like glioblastoma, respiratory distress, or ischemic stroke. It is for patients who have exhausted other treatments and cannot join a clinical trial. Each request is reviewed individually, and the drug is not FDA-approved.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- NanO₂ (NVX-108), an investigational oxygen-carrying drug
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this expanded access program could provide a potential treatment option for patients with life-threatening conditions who have no other choices.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage, unapproved drug with unknown risks and benefits. Access is not guaranteed, and it may not work for every patient.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
* Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients must have a condition that is serious or immediately life-threatening. 2. Patients must have exhausted other treatment options or are ineligible to participate in ongoing clinical trials. 3. The potential benefits of treatment with NanO₂ must outweigh the potential risks, as determined at the discretion of the treating physician and NuvOx. * Exclusion criteria: 1. Providing NanO₂ for the requested use will interfere with the initiation, conduct, or completion of clinical investigations that could support marketing approval of the use. * A request will be evaluated against the criteria of 21 CFR 312.305(a) and 312.310(a). * NuvOx will consider the totality of available information, including applicable nonclinical and clinical experience, the patient's condition, and the treating physician's rationale for use.
