Official title: Pilot Study of hPG80 (Circulating Progastrin) as a Blood Biomarker for High-grade Glial Tumors

PROGLIO is a French mono-centric study with longitudinal follow-up, in which patients with high grade brain tumors will be included. Blood samples will be taken during their therapeutic follow-up to evaluate plasma concentrations of hPG80 (circulating progastrin).

What participants receive

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

  • Blood sampleBiological

    Evaluation of plasma hPG80 concentrations by fasting blood samples. A total of seven 5 mL blood samples will be taken: Before radiation therapy; at the end of radiation therapy; at cycle 3 of chemotherapy; at cycle 6 of chemotherapy; 3 months after the end of treatment; 6 months after the end of treatment; and 9 months after the end of treatment.

Study groups in NCT05157594
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
All patientsA fasting blood sample will be taken on the day of the beginning and the day of the end of the radiotherapy and during the adjuvant chemotherapy (every 3 cycles). A follow-up will be performed for 9 months, with a blood sample taken every three months on the day of the follow-up MRI.
Receives: Biological: Blood sample

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Plasma concentrations of hPG80

    To evaluate plasma concentrations of hPG80 (circulating progastrin) during therapeutic and recurrence follow-up in patients with high-grade brain tumors.

    Measured: From Radiotherapy 1st session to 9 month follow-up

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. hPG80 concentration according to tumor progression

    To study hPG80 concentration according to tumor progression in patients with high-grade brain tumor

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year and 6 months

  2. Sensitivity of hPG80 concentration changes to irradiation

    To evaluate the sensitivity of hPG80 concentration changes to irradiation in patients with high-grade brain tumor.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year and 6 months

  3. Interindividual variations of hPG80 concentration

    To compare the plasma expression level of hPG80 in patients with high-grade brain tumor to study interindividual variations around and during disease management.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year and 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Glial Cell Tumors, run by Centre Jean Perrin at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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 22 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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.

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?

Plasma concentrations of hPG80 (time frame: From Radiotherapy 1st session to 9 month follow-up). 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 NCT05157594, 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 22 Sep 2025.
