An International, Randomized, Double-Blind, Controlled Study of Rindopepimut/GM-CSF With Adjuvant Temozolomide in Patients With Newly Diagnosed, Surgically Resected, EGFRvIII-positive Glioblastoma

Description

Detailed Description
The purpose of this research study is to find out whether adding an experimental vaccine called rindopepimut (also known as CDX-110) to the commonly used chemotherapy drug temozolomide can help improve the life expectancy of patients with newly diagnosed, resected EGFRvIII positive glioblastoma. The duration of participation in this study may be up to 5 years. After you are screened and enrolled in the study, you will be administered temozolomide and either rindopepimut/GM-CSF or KLH until either disease progression or intolerance to the medications. If your tumor progresses while on this study, your doctor may treat you with other therapies that are not part of the study.

Phase

Phase 3 - a treatment has shown activity against a particular disease, where it is either added to existing treatment or compared to the standard treatment.
