About this study
Official title: Prospective Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial of SurVaxM Plus Adjuvant Temozolomide for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma (SURVIVE)
The main purpose of this study is to determine whether adding SurVaxM to standard-of-care temozolomide chemotherapy is better than temozolomide treatment alone for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. This study is designed to compare the length of survival in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who receive temozolomide plus SurVaxM to that of patients treated with standard-of-care temozolomide plus placebo. This study aims to discover what effects, both good and bad, this combination of drugs may have on you and to see if the study drug (SurVaxM) can create an immune response in your blood that is directed against your cancer cells. This study also aims to determine whether treatment with SurVaxM plus temozolomide improves the survival of glioblastoma patients like yourself compared to treatment with temozolomide alone.
Read the detailed description
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled study. That means that some patients will receive an active drug (SurVaxM) and some will receive an inactive drug (placebo). Patients who agree to participate will be randomized (chance) to one of two groups. Patients that are randomized by chance to receive SurVaxM will be treated with standard-of-care temozolomide plus an injection under the skin of SurVaxM in Montanide (a milky white substance that helps SurVaxM to be recognized by the patient's immune system). Patients in this group will also receive a second separate injection of a drug called sargramostim that boosts the patient's immune system at the site of the first injection. These injections will be repeated at regular intervals according to a schedule.
Patients that are randomized to receive placebo will be treated with standard-of-care temozolomide plus an injection under the skin of saline (salt water) in Montanide (a milky white substance). Patients in this group will also receive a second separate injection of saline to simulate the injection of sargramostim that patient's in the SurVaxM group receive. These injections will be repeated at regular intervals according to a schedule.
The treatments in the two groups (SurVaxM and placebo groups) will be completely indistinguishable to patients and their treating doctors.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
SurVaxMBiological
Consists of a synthetic peptide conjugate that stimulates immune responses capable of killing cancer cells that express the survivin molecule. Multiple copies of the multiplied peptide (SVN53-67/M57) are conjugated to Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH) yielding a molecule designated as SVN53-67/M57-KLH. The SVN53-67/M57-KLH conjugate (SurVaxM)produces immune responses in mice and humans that are cross-reactive to the wild-type survivin molecule expressed by tumor cells. The survivin peptide in SurVaxM is a defined antigenic peptide comprised of 15 amino acids that encompass multiple epitopes capable of binding human MHC Class I and murine H2-Kb molecules. SurVaxM also contains a core antigenic epitope that has been modified by substitution of methionine for cysteine at amino acid position 57 (i.e., M57).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing SurVaxM in people with Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma, run by MimiVax, LLC at 11 sites in United States.
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 25 inclusion and 25 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 11 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
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?
Results are not available in the source record.
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: 36 Months). 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 NCT05163080, which also lists 19 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 26 Feb 2024.
