About this study
Official title: Adjuvant Dendritic-Cell Immunotherapy Plus Temozolomide Following Surgery and Chemoradiation in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
In this phase I/II trial, the primary objective is to determine overall and progression-free survival of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma when autologous Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1) messenger (m)RNA-loaded dendritic cell (DC) vaccination is added to adjuvant temozolomide maintenance treatment following (sub)total resection and temozolomide-based chemoradiation.
Read the detailed description
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a microscopically infiltrative disease, is the most common malignant brain tumor worldwide. Despite optimized standard of care treatment median survival and prognosis remain poor with a median survival of only 15% and five year survival after diagnosis of 5%.
In this single arm single centre phase I/II trial the investigators will determine the overall and progression free survival of patients with newly diagnosed GBM when autologous WT1 mRNA loaded dendritic cell vaccination is added to standard of care treatment. During recruitment, the investigators will include 20 patients with newly diagnosed, histologically verified glioblastoma (WHO grade IV) who have received a total or subtotal resection of the tumor. Patients who underwent prior radiation or chemotherapy or with a history of other malignancy will be excluded. In addition to standard of care consisting of adjuvant chemoradiation with temozolomide and temozolomide maintenance patients will receive an intradermal vaccination with autologous WT1 mRNA-loaded dendritic cells commencing 1 week after radiotherapy. The dendritic cell therapy product will be generated and administered in the Antwerp University Hospital, more specifically the Center for Cell Therapy and Regenerative Medicine (CCRG), headed by Prof. Zwi Berneman and the Division of Hematology.
Recruitment began in December 2015 and is intended to continue until the end of 2024 or when 20 patients are enrolled. After a follow-up period (until 90 days after final DC vaccine administration or 24 months after apheresis , whichever occurs later), overall and progression free survival analysis will be performed and this will be compared with the published data of standard of care treatment without vaccination. In addition the investigators will look for feasibility, incidence of adverse events and immunogenicity.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Dendritic cell vaccine plus temozolomide chemotherapyBiological
When eligible after total or subtotal resection (as assessed by neurosurgeon and post-operative brain MRI):
- Leukocyte apheresis (before chemoradiation): for DC vaccine production
- Chemoradiation (standard treatment: initiated as soon as the patient's hematological blood values are adequate after apheresis): 2 Gy once daily 5 days/week for 6 weeks with 75 mg/m² temozolomide daily from the first until the last day of radiotherapy (no longer than 49 days in total)
- Induction immunotherapy: intradermal vaccination with autologous WT1 mRNA-loaded DCs weekly (+/-1 day) for 3 weeks, starting ≥ 1 week after radiotherapy
- Chemo-immunotherapy: 150-200 mg/m²/d temozolomide days 1-5 every 28 days +/- 2 days (max. 12 months) starting ≥3 days after the third vaccine of the induction immunotherapy + DC vaccination on day 21±3 days of every 28-day cycle

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall survival
Patients will be followed for survival, from apheresis (~ diagnosis), for which the accurate date and reason of death (cancer-related or non-related) will be recorded for every patient.
Measured: Through study completion with follow-up until 90 days after final DC vaccine administration or 24 months after apheresis, whichever occurs later
Secondary outcomes (5)
Number of glioblastoma patients post surgical resection with feasible and safe DC vaccine production
Production of autologous DC vaccines from newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients that underwent maximal, safe surgical resection will be evaluated for:
- feasibility, assessed by success of leukapheresis and production of sufficient and qualified (phenotypic and functional requirements) vaccines.
- Safety, assessed by microbiological testing (bacteria, yeast, fungi, mycoplasma, endotoxin) of the DC vaccines.
Measured: Vaccine production and quality testing (i.e. 4 weeks after leukapheresis)
Feasibility of DC vaccine administration to glioblastoma patients combined with chemotherapy
Administration of 3 weekly DC vaccines following adjuvant chemoradiation (induction phase) and additional DC vaccination at day 21 of each maintenance chemotherapy cycle (booster phase) will be evaluated for feasibility, assessed by successful DC vaccine administration of the proposed treatment scheme.
Measured: Upon maintenance chemotherapy treatment (i.e. +/- 12 weeks post leukapheresis)
Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability
Monitoring the incidence of adverse events to evaluate the safety profile and tolerability of the treatment. The severity of adverse events will be assessed according to the NCI CTCAE scale (v4.03, published June 14, 2010).
Measured: Through study completion with follow-up until 90 days after final DC vaccine administration or 24 months after apheresis, whichever occurs later
Immunological responses to the DC vaccine
Immunological responses to the vaccine will be evaluated ex vivo. Blood samples will be collected from patients on the day of the first DC vaccine, and on day 1 of the first and fourth maintenance temozolomide treatment cycles and will be examined for cell subset distribution and activation status and antigen-specific immunity.
Measured: At first DC vaccination + day 1 of first and fourth temozolomide treatment cycles
Objective clinical responses by tumor evaluation (clinical efficacy)
Disease evolution and progression-free survival will be assessed according to the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria, based on imaging findings (MRI, CT), clinical status and corticosteroid use.
Disease will be assessed following chemoradiation (≤ 2 weeks after completing chemoradiation), after every two cycles of temozolomide maintenance treatment and at least every 12 weeks during the booster phase, and every 9-12 weeks during follow-up after treatment discontinuation.
Measured: Through study completion with follow up until 90 days after final DC vaccine administration or 24 months after apheresis, whichever occurs later

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Overall survival (time frame: Through study completion with follow-up until 90 days after final DC vaccine administration or 24 months after apheresis, whichever occurs later). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02649582, which also lists 10 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jun 2026.
