Can a new biologic boost standard brain cancer therapy?
NCT ID NCT06147505
First seen Aug 13, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial is testing whether adding an experimental drug called XS005 to the standard chemotherapy regimen (Stupp) is safe and shows promise for people with glioblastoma, an aggressive brain tumor. The study involves 13 adults aged 18 to 70 who will receive XS005 infusions over 16 weeks alongside their usual treatment. The main goals are to find the highest safe dose and to see if the combination may help slow 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
- XS005 injection (an experimental biologic) combined with the standard Stupp chemotherapy regimen
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option that improves outcomes for people with glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 13 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The main focus is safety, and the treatment may cause side effects or not effectively control the tumor.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age between 18 and 70 years old (including the threshold), both male and female; 2. Expected survival ≥6 months; 3. Karnofsky performance status(KPS) score ≥60 before treatment; 4. The level of organ and bone marrow function must meet the following requirements: * Bone marrow: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×109/L, platelet count ≥100×109/L, hemoglobin ≥90g/L, and no platelet or red blood cell transfusion within 14 days prior to first administration. And did not receive blood transfusion or biological response regulators (such as granulocyte growth factor, erythrocyte growth factor, interleukin-11, etc.) within 14 days before the first administration; * Liver function: No history of cirrhosis (Child-Pugh grade B, C). Serum total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤2.5×ULN; * Renal function: serum creatinine ≤1.5×ULN, or creatinine clearance ≥50ml/min (Cockcroft-Gault formula); Qualitative urine protein ≤1+; If the qualitative urine protein is ≥2+, it is necessary to conduct a quantitative urine protein test for 24 hours. According to the examination results, the researchers made the admission judgment. * Coagulation function: prothrombin time (PT) ≤1.5×ULN; International standardized ratio (INR) ≤1.5×ULN, and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤1.5×ULN (except those receiving therapeutic anticoagulants); 5. The subjects (including male subjects) have no pregnancy plan and voluntarily take effective contraceptive measures during the screening period and from the beginning of the study administration to the last dose of the study drug within 6 months after the study drug is administered, and have no sperm or egg donation plans, in which the study period should voluntarily take effective contraceptive measures; 6. Able to understand the procedures and methods of this study, willing to sign informed consent and strictly follow the clinical study protocol to complete this study. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients who received other anti-tumor drugs (including chemotherapy, targeted drugs other than bevacizumab, immunotherapy, Chinese medicine anti-tumor therapy, etc.) except for patients who received concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy for GBM after surgery (TMZ dosage ≤75mg/m2, radiotherapy dose limited to 50-60Gy); 2. Previous or current malignant tumors of other types, except for the following cases: basal cell carcinoma of the skin, superficial bladder cancer, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or cervical cancer in situ; 3. The presence of any contraindications to MRI, such as: use of a pacemaker, infusion pump, or allergy to MRI contrast agents; 4. Receive live attenuated vaccine or vaccine within 4 weeks prior to the first study drug treatment or plan to receive live vaccine during the study period; 5. Subjects with active or pre-existing autoimmune diseases that are likely to recur, or patients at high risk (such as those who have received an organ transplant and require immunosuppressive therapy).
