Phase 2

Recruiting

• Conditions: Glioblastoma
• Interventions: Drug: Stupp protocol; Drug: Dual antibody A; Drug: Dual antibody B; Radiation: Modified Stupp

• Registration Number: NCT06936046
• Lead Sponsor: Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University

Brief Summary

This study is a prospective Bayesian adaptive randomized phase II clinical trial of enhanced adjuvant therapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma with partial surgical resection or short-term progression. The Stupp regimen is the standard treatment regimen (control group), while the experimental group receives enhanced treatment by combining different drugs or increasing the radiation dose based on the Stupp standard treatment regimen. Participants will undergo screening and evaluation according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the protocol, within 28 days prior to randomization. Patients who agree to participate in this study will sign an informed consent form (ICF) prior to the screening process. After completing all screening activities, those who meet the criteria can start receiving study treatment. Based on sample size estimation, a total of 210 patients are planned to be enrolled. Among the first 28 patients, an average of 7 patients will be allocated to each group for initial randomization to ensure the balance of each group in the early stages of the trial. Starting from the 29th patient, the 12-month PFS rate will be re estimated for every 15 patients enrolled, and the subsequent randomization probability will be calculated based on the observed data. On the first day of self adjuvant therapy, the PD-1/VEGF bispecific group received intravenous administration of PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody 20mg/kg treatment, with 21 days per cycle, is expected to be administered for a total of 8 cycles. The PD-1/CTLA-4 dual antibody group received intravenous infusion of 6mg/kg PD-1/CTLA-4 dual antibody once on the first day of self adjuvant therapy, with 14 days per cycle. It is expected to be administered for a total of 12 cycles. The dose adjusted Stupp regimen group (mStupp) administered PGTV locally to residual or short-term recurrent lesions after surgery 66Gy/30Gy high-dose irradiation, PTV1 60Gy/30F in high-risk areas around the tumor bed, and 54Gy/30F radiotherapy in low-risk areas. Each group will have weekly blood routine, liver and kidney function, myocardial enzyme spectrum, thyroid function, electrocardiogram, and head MR every 4 weeks to evaluate the efficacy and toxic side effects. Follow up observation will be conducted. The study will start on January 1, 2025 and end on December 31, 2027, to explore the efficacy of enhanced adjuvant therapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma with partial surgical resection or short-term progression.
