Treatment of Recurrent GBM With APG-157 Via Expanded Access

Study Purpose

This expanded access request will evaluate APG-157, a botanical drug under development for other cancers, as potential treatment for recurrent Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

 Unknown
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Concurrent chemoradiation with TMZ or Tumor Treating Field (Optune) is allowed but not mandatory.
  • - Patients are eligible for enrollment only if they have unequivocal evidence of tumor recurrence/progression by MRI a minimum of 12 weeks following completion of radiation therapy or TMZ-Radiotherapy or Optune.
Patients who have received prior bevacizumab or other anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(anti-VEGF) agents are not eligible to enroll.
  • - Baseline MRI should be performed within 28 days prior to enrollment.
  • - Other key inclusion criteria include Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status of 0-1 (KPS ≥ 70%) and adequate bone marrow, hepatic, and renal function at baseline.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

 NCT05551013
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

Glioblastoma patients with disease recurrence after primary, currently approved primary treatments have limited options. Therefore, this expanded access trial is designed to test a new therapeutic option for these patients. Patients who have progressed on a combination of both Temozolomide and Tumor Treating Field (Optune) or as single treatment Temozolomide (TMZ) OR Tumor Treating Fields (Optune) are eligible to receive APG-157. During APG-157 dosing, TMZ or Optune may be concurrently given at the decision of the Principal Investigator. APG-157 will be given until disease progression or intolerance by the patient. Radiation followed by adjuvant Temozolomide for 6 to 12 months which is a current standard of care (SOC). Upon progression of this disease after SOC treatment, there are very limited further options for these patients. This expanded access administration will evaluate the potential of APG-157, a novel drug under development for head and neck cancer, as a potential treatment for these recurrent glioblastoma patients. Brief Description of Objectives:

  • - Improve six-month progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of the patients eligible for the treatment under Expanded Access protocol.
  • - Improvement in Quality of Life.
  • - Achievements of above two objectives without any Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and adverse drug-drug interactions.
Brief Description of Plans for Efficacy Assessment:
  • - Improvement in Quality of Life.
  • - Efficacy will be assessed using Imaging (objective tumor response using Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology criteria (RANO), hematological assessment, and tolerance.
