About this study

Official title: Phase II Glioblastoma Accelerated Biomarkers Learning Environment Trial (GABLE)

This phase II trial studies whether different imaging techniques can provide additional and more accurate information than the usual approach for assessing the activity of tumors in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The usual approach for this currently is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This study is trying to learn more about the meaning of changes in MRI scans after treatment, as while the appearance of some of these changes may reflect progressing tumor, some may be due the treatment. Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)-MRIs, along with positron emission tomography (PET) and/or magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy, may help doctors tell which changes are a reflection of the treatment and which changes may be due to progressing tumor.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. For each biomarker (dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced MR Imaging, fluciclovine F18 [18F-fluciclovine] PET, MR spectroscopy), to evaluate whether the biomarker can stratify patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) that have progressive enhancement within 12 weeks post-radiation therapy (XRT) into risk groups based on overall survival.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate whether each biomarker (dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced MR Imaging, 18F-fluciclovine PET, MR spectroscopy) can predict final determination of pseudo-progression (PsP) versus (vs.) true progression on follow-up MR imaging as evaluated by a semi-automated central reading process and by institutional radiologist readings.

II. To evaluate whether a prediction model that incorporates multiple biomarkers can discriminate patients with progressive enhancement within 12 weeks post-XRT into high and low risk groups for overall survival.

III. To evaluate whether clinical and imaging biomarkers are predictive of overall and progression-free survival in patients who do not show progressive enhancement within 12 weeks post-XRT.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To determine how different methods of defining PsP vs. true progression on imaging relate to patient survival.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive a gadolinium-based contrast agent and undergo DSC-MRI scans at 4 and 8 weeks after completion of standard of care (SOC) radiation therapy. Patients with evidence of disease progression then undergo MR spectroscopy or receive fluciclovine F18 intravenously (IV) and undergo PET scan within 12 weeks of SOC radiation therapy completion.

After completion of study intervention, patients are followed up every 8 weeks for 1 year followed by every 12 weeks for 5 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Will use a two-sided log-rank test to compare the difference in OS between marker positive and marker negative participants using a significance level of 0.05.

    Measured: From biomarker collection to death due to any cause, assessed up to 6 years

  2. Event free survival (EFS)

    NANO progression is defined as a ≥ 2 level worsening from baseline or best level of function in at least one domain or worsening to the highest score within ≥1 domain that is felt to be related to underlying tumor progression and not attributable to a comorbid event or change in concurrent medication. Will be based on the conditional power of a two-sided log-rank test for EFS between marker positive and marker negative participants using a significance level of 0.05.

    Measured: From biomarker collection until progression by Neurological Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (NANO) criteria or death, assessed up to 6 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. True disease progression and pseudo-progression (PsP)

    The T3 MRI will be used to determine whether progressive enhancement seen within 12 weeks post-XRT was true progression or PsP.

    Measured: Within 12 weeks post radiation therapy (XRT)

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Measured: From surgery to the earlier of progression or death due to any cause, assessed up to 6 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Fluciclovine F18 and Gadolinium-Chelate in people with Glioblastoma, IDH-Wildtype, run by ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group at 18 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 15 inclusion and 0 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 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. 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?

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (OS) (time frame: From biomarker collection to death due to any cause, assessed up to 6 years). 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 18 Aug 2026.
