What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying if adding DOC1021 dendritic cell immunotherapy and pIFN to the standard treatment for adults newly diagnosed with glioblastoma (IDH-wt) can improve survival. This Phase 2 trial also aims to evaluate the safety of this combined treatment compared to standard care alone. The study focuses on patients who have had surgery and are eligible for post-operative temozolomide chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Participants receiving DOC1021 and pIFN along with standard care will take filgrastim injections for 5 days followed by leukapheresis collection. They will get ultrasound-guided injections of DOC1021 near deep cervical lymph nodes every 2 weeks for a total of 3 doses and weekly pIFN injections for 6 weeks. Both treatment groups will continue to receive regular standard care including surgery, temozolomide chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. During the study, participants will visit the clinic regularly for quality of life assessments, symptom tracking, medication review, imaging scans, and blood tests. Researchers will monitor overall survival over 5 years and other outcomes such as adverse events, progression on imaging, and survival at 1, 2, and 3 years after diagnosis. Participation involves close monitoring and ongoing evaluations to assess treatment impact and safety throughout the study period.
