Identification of Treatment Concentrations of Defactinib or VS-6766 for the Treatment of Patients With Glioblastoma

Finding safe doses of Defactinib or VS-6766 for glioblastoma treatment.

Phase N/A

This study explores how much of the drugs defactinib or VS-6766 reach the brain and their safety in treating glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. Glioblastomas grow rapidly, partly due to the uncontrolled activity of certain proteins called kinases. Defactinib and VS-6766 help control these proteins to potentially slow down tumor growth. In this study, patients will receive a single oral dose of either drug before their planned tumor surgery. Blood samples and tumor tissue will be collected for analysis.

Key Points:

  • The trial involves taking one dose of a study drug before surgery.
  • Participants must be adults diagnosed with glioblastoma needing surgery.
  • Pregnant women, children, and prisoners are excluded.

Participants will be monitored for safety and how well the drug reaches the brain. They should discuss eligibility and potential risks with their doctor before joining.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

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.
