BRiTE Study for Glioblastoma

This study is testing a new treatment called hEGFRvIII-CD3 (BRiTE) for people with newly diagnosed or recurrent glioblastoma (a type of brain tumor). BRiTE is a "bispecific T cell engager," meaning it helps your body's immune cells (T cells) find and attack tumor cells that have a specific marker called EGFRvIII. To join, you must have glioblastoma with this EGFRvIII mutation. The main goal of this Phase 1 study is to see how safe BRiTE is and to find the highest dose that can be given safely. BRiTE will be given continuously through an IV for 4 days in a 28-day cycle. The study plans to enroll up to 18 patients.

Study design
This is a Phase 1 interventional study, meaning it's an early-stage study to test safety. It plans to enroll a maximum of 18 participants.
What's involved
You would receive hEGFRvIII-CD3 (BRiTE) continuously through an IV for 4 days (96 hours) in a 28-day cycle. The primary safety measurement will be taken during the first 28 days of treatment.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The primary safety endpoint, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), is measured during the first 28 days from the start of the BRiTE infusion.
