ABY-029 Glioma Trial

Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Intracranial Tumor
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT07063693
Lead Sponsor
Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center
Brief Summary

The purposes of the research trial are to study the safety of ABY-029 and to understand how much of the drug is needed to reach brain tumors so it can be visualized best by surgeons. Investigators will do this by comparing two groups of participants that receive different, very small amounts of ABY-029. Investigators will use an imaging system during surgery to record the amount of ABY-029 in the participant's tumor and in the surrounding tissue.

GroupInterventionDescription
ABY-029 6X dose groupABY-029ABY-029 will be administered at the 6X dose level prior to surgery to participants with presumed high-grade glioma, based on a preoperative MRI or other imaging. Investigators will collect one blood sample before participants are given ABY-029, a second sample one or two minutes after participants are given the drug, a third sample about 15 minutes after participants are given the drug, and a fourth sample about an hour after receiving the drug, or just prior to anesthesia (whichever comes first). Investigators will collect one urine sample and take EKG readings to monitor the participant's heart before surgery. Investigators will repeat blood, urine and EKG tests when participants are in the hospital after surgery.
ABY-029 10X dose groupABY-029ABY-029 will be administered at the 10X dose level prior to surgery to participants with presumed high-grade glioma, based on a preoperative MRI or other imaging. Investigators will collect one blood sample before participants are given ABY-029, a second sample one or two minutes after participants are given the drug, a third sample about 15 minutes after participants are given the drug, and a fourth sample about an hour after receiving the drug, or just prior to anesthesia (whichever comes first). Investigators will collect one urine sample and take EKG readings to monitor the participant's heart before surgery. Investigators will repeat blood, urine and EKG tests when participants are in the hospital after surgery.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adverse events related to ABY-029One month

To study the safety of ABY-029, adverse events related to 6X and 10X doses of ABY-029 will be tracked following surgery, and the proportion of study-drug related adverse events at 6X and 10X doses will be compared statistically for significant differences.

False negative rate of ABY-029 fluorescenceUp to three months

To measure of diagnostic performance of ABY-029, the false negative rate of ABY-029 fluorescence measured during surgery in tissue samples that are confirmed to be tumor through pathology.
