Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with recurrent or newly diagnosed glioblastoma who meet specific health criteria.

Probably not a fit

Patients with significant comorbidities or those who are not able to comply with study protocols may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial investigates the safety and efficacy of Debio 0123, a WEE1 inhibitor, in combination with temozolomide for adults with recurrent or newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The study is divided into two phases: Phase 1 focuses on determining the appropriate dosage and identifying any dose-limiting toxicities, while Phase 2 will evaluate the effectiveness of the recommended dose compared to standard care. Participants will undergo treatment and monitoring to assess outcomes and tolerability.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with glioblastoma, potentially improving survival rates and quality of life.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar approaches, but this specific combination is being evaluated for the first time.

Screening Inclusion Criteria for Phase 1 and Phase 2:

* Signed written informed consent approved before undertaking any study-specific procedures.
* Age ≥18 years of age.
* Willing to provide archived or fresh tumor sample, if available. Receipt of tumor sample is not required for the start of study treatment.
* Adequate bone marrow, hepatic, and renal function.
* Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
* Willing to practice highly effective methods of contraception.
* Life expectancy of at least 3 months in the best judgment of the Investigator.
* Measurable or non-measurable disease as per RANO criteria by gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast-enhanced brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
* Participants receiving corticosteroids must be on a stable or decreasing dose of ≤4 mg daily dexamethasone (or ≤25 mg prednisone) for the 7 days prior to the start of study treatment.
* Participants with seizures must be adequately controlled on a stable regimen of anti-epileptic drugs.

Additional specific inclusion criteria for Phase 1 and Phase 2:

• A maximum of 1 \[for Phase 1 (Dose Expansion) and phase 2\] or 2 (Phase 1 Arm A) prior treatment lines of which first-line must be treatment with TMZ-based chemoradiotherapy (TMZ concomitantly with RT).

Note: Only 1 prior line of systemic therapy is allowed; combination therapy with TMZ and RT with or without subsequent TMZ maintenance treatment is considered as 1 systemic line. Prior surgery, radiation, or localized delivery of therapeutic agents (i.e., carmustine-containing wafers \[GLIADEL®\]) for first recurrence is allowed.

* Documented disease recurrence or progression by diagnostic biopsy or Gd-based contrast-enhanced brain MRI as per RANO criteria.
* KPS ≥60.

Additional specific inclusion criteria for Phase 1 Arm A:

* Participants must have one of the following histopathologically proven diagnoses (WHO 2021):
* GBM Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-wildtype Grade 4 which may include secondary GBMs (i.e., those that progress from low-grade gliomas).
* Astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, Grade 3

Additional specific inclusion criteria for Phase 1 Arm B and C:

* Participants must have a new, histopathologically proven diagnosis of GBM, IDH-wildtype, Grade 4 (based on WHO 2021), which may include secondary GBMs (i.e., those that progress from low-grade gliomas) if the prior treatment included surgery only.
* KPS ≥70.

Additional specific inclusion criteria for Phase 1 dose expansion and Phase 2:

• Participants must have a histopathologically proven diagnosis of GBM, IDH-wildtype Grade 4 WHO 2021

Additional specific exclusion criteria for Phase 1 Arm A • Prior treatment with more than 2 lines of therapy for GBM, IDH-wildtype, Grade 4, or for astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, Grade 3

Additional specific exclusion criteria for Phase 1 and Phase 2

* Known contraindication to undergoing for Gd-based, contrast-enhanced MRI.
* Any anticancer treatment, monoclonal antibodies/biologics, investigational treatment, or RT with curative intent within 28 days prior to starting study treatment.
* Hypersensitivity to zedoresertib, TMZ, dacarbazine, or any of the excipients found in the formulation for zedoresertib or TMZ.
* Prior exposure to any WEE1 inhibitor.
* History of other malignancies requiring active treatment in the last 2 years prior to the first dose of study treatment except for superficial bladder cancers, adequately treated low-risk prostate cancer under active surveillance, ductal carcinoma in situ or other carcinomas in situ, and non-melanoma skin cancers (basal cell/squamous cell skin cancer) that have been treated with curative intent.
* Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) below 55%.

Additional specific exclusion criteria for Phase 1 Arm B and C:

* Prior radiation, chemotherapy, biological therapy, interstitial brachytherapy, implanted chemotherapy, therapeutics delivered by local injection or convection-enhanced delivery for GBM.
* Prior therapy that would result in an overlap of the radiation fields.

Additional specific exclusion criteria for Phase 1 dose expansion and Phase 2

• Prior treatment with more than 1 line of systemic therapy for GBM, IDH-wildtype, Grade 4 (based on WHO 2021). Combination therapy with TMZ and RT with or without subsequent TMZ maintenance treatment is considered as 1 systemic line.
