- Active and clinically significant infections.
- Current use or anticipated requirement for drugs known to be moderate or strong cytochrome p450 inhibitors.
- Individuals with a history of a different malignancy are ineligible except for the following circumstances: Individuals with a history of other malignancies are eligible if they have been disease-free for at least 3 years and are deemed by the investigator to be at low risk for recurrence of that malignancy. Individuals with the following cancers are eligible if diagnosed and treated within the past 3 years: cervical cancer in situ, and basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin.
- Patients will not be eligible if they have evidence of other malignancy requiring therapy other than surgery within the last 3 years.
- Patients who have had prior stereotactic radiotherapy, convection enhanced delivery or brachytherapy (as gliosis/scarring from these modalities may limit delivery).
- Patients will not be eligible if they present with leptomeningeal dissemination.
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects is unknown (glasdegib has been shown to be teratogenic in nonclinical embryo-fetal development studies in rats and mice at subtherapeutic exposures). Because there is an unknown but potential risk of adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated.
- HIV-positive individuals on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions. In addition, these individuals are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy.
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to glasdegib.
- Other severe acute or chronic medical condition, uncontrolled intercurrent illness or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with trial participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of trial results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this trial.
- Female patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding or male or female patients of reproductive potential who are not willing to employ highly effective birth control from screening to 180 days after the last dose of the study treatment.

About this study
Official title: Phase Ib/II Multicentric Study Combining Glasdegib (PF-04449913) With Temozolomide in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma, Safety and Preliminary Efficacy for the Combination
Glioblastomas (GBMs) are the most common malignant primary brain tumors. Despite multimodality aggressive therapies (surgery followed by chemoradiotherapy based on TMZ and adjuvant TMZ), median overall survival is only 12 to 15 months. This dramatic behavior is mainly due to the high invasiveness and proliferation rate of GBM.
In addition, GBM exhibits a high resistance to standard chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Current strategies for the treatment of GBM are only palliative, and include surgical resection (which is frequently incomplete due to the proximity of the tumour to vital brain structures) and focal radiotherapy. A large number of chemotherapeutic agents (e.g. alkylating agents such as TMZ and nitrosoureas such as carmustine) have also been tested, but they display limited efficacy.

The current gold standard first line treatment for glioma for patients less than 70 years old includes radiation and concurrent TMZ followed by adjuvant TMZ (i.e., the "Stupp regimen"). However, results are disappointing and there is an unmet medical need of new drugs in this setting.
Glasdegib (SHH pathway inhibitor) is a rational therapeutic agent for patients with newly diagnosed Glioblastoma since inhibits SHH pathway interfering with cancer stem cells and endothelial migration.

A Phase 1/2 study testing PF-04449913 and Temozolomide Oral Capsule in people with Glioblastoma, run by Grupo Español de Investigación en Neurooncología at 8 sites in Spain.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 8 sites in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Glasdegib Dose (time frame: 12 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03466450, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 28 Mar 2024.
