A Phase 2 Study of Veliparib (ABT-888) and Local Irradiation, Followed by Maintenance Veliparib and Temozolomide, in Patients With Newly Diagnosed High-Grade Glioma (HGG) Without H3 K27M or BRAFV600E Mutations

Study of Treatments for Malignant Glioma

Recruiting
3-25 years
All

This study investigates the effectiveness of an investigational medication, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy in treating people with a type of brain cancer called malignant glioma. Malignant glioma is a fast-growing cancer that occurs in the brain or spinal cord. The study focuses on participants whose tumors do not have specific mutations known as H3 K27M or BRAFV600E.

Participants in the study will receive a combination of treatments. The investigational medication may block enzymes that help tumor cells grow. Radiation therapy uses high-energy rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Chemotherapy involves using drugs to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing them or by preventing them from dividing or spreading.

  • Who can participate: Participants must have diagnosed high-grade glioma, such as anaplastic astrocytoma or glioblastoma, without specific mutations (H3 K27M or BRAFV600E). Individuals with well-controlled seizures may participate, but those with certain other types of brain tumors or conditions are not eligible.
  • Study details: Participants will receive an investigational medication along with radiation therapy and chemotherapy. A placebo is not used in this study.

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
