About this study

Official title: Phase Ib, Open-label, Multicenter, Intrapatient Dose-escalation Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety Profile of the TN-TC11G (THC+CBD) Combination With Temozolomide and Radiotherapy in Patients With Newly-diagnosed Glioblastoma

Glioblastoma is the primary brain tumour with the worst prognosis: median survival is only 12 months despite the use of the most advanced treatments. In the past 10 years, survival in the treatment of this disease has not advanced significantly, with the postoperative standard being the administration of chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide, followed by 6 cycles of sequential chemotherapy with temozolomide.

Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) have shown a clear synergistic antitumour effect with temozolomide and radiotherapy in preclinical glioma models. THC and CBD have a wide variety of biological effects by binding with and activating the type 1 and type 2 cannabinoid receptors (CB1 expressed in certain neuronal areas of the brain and CB2 expressed in the immune system and in glial cells). The activation of these receptors initiates a signalling pathway, called the endoplasmic reticulum stress response, which generates tumour cell autophagy by activating TRB3.

Given these data, the Spanish Group for Neuro-oncology (GEINO) proposes developing a phase Ib, open-label, multicenter, intrapatient dose-escalation clinical trial to assess the safety profile of the THC+CBD combination at a 1:1 ratio, adding temozolomide and radiotherapy in patients with newly-diagnosed glioblastoma.

The number of patients to be recruited is 30 over 6 months at 8 sites specialising in neuro-oncology.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TN-TC11GDrug

    TN-TC11G dose will be gradually increased as follows:

    Week 1: TN-TC11G: 0-0-5 mg (THC 5 mg + CBD 5 mg; in the mornings, 90 minutes after breakfast; in the afternoons, 90 minutes after lunch; in the evenings, 90 minutes after dinner).

    Week 2: TN-TC11G: 5-0-5 mg Week 3: TN-TC11G: 5-5-5 mg Week 4: TN-TC11G: 5-5-10 mg Week 5: TN-TC11G: 5-5-15 mg Week 6: TN-TC11G: 10-10-15 mg Week 7: TN-TC11G: 10-10-20 mg. Week 8: TN-TC11G: 15-15-30 mg Week 9: TN-TC11G: 20-20-40 mg TN-TC11G will be administered daily at the relevant dose level according to the individual titration performed in the first 9 weeks of treatment. If there is any dose reduction, the reduced dose must be administered.

  • Temozolomide Oral ProductDrug

    Also called Temozolomide

    During RT, patients will receive Temozolomide (TMZ). All patients will be given TMZ at 75 mg/m2/d concurrently with RT for a maximum of 42 days.

    At 4 weeks after RT completion, patients will start taking TMZ at 150 mg/m2/d for the first 5 days of a 28-day cycle. If first cycle is well tolerated, patients will receive TMZ at 200 mg/m2/d for the first 5 days of every subsequent 28-day cycle for another 5 cycles.

  • RadiotherapyRadiation

    Also called STUPP

    All the patients will receive the Stupp regimen. The radiotherapy (RT) treatment will be administered in fractions of 1.8-2.0 Gy/day delivered 5 days/week to a total dose of 58-60 Gy. Radiotherapy will be delivered to the gross tumor volume with a 2-3 cm margin for the clinical target volume.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing TN-TC11G, Temozolomide Oral Product and Radiotherapy 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 10 inclusion and 11 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 12 Feb 2026. 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?

THC-CBD Maximum tolerated dose (time frame: 9 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?
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 12 Feb 2026.
