Treatment of recurrent glioblastoma with NRG-103 injection

Is this trial a fit for you?

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 aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NRG-103, an innovative gene therapy, in treating adults with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM). Participants will receive NRG-103 injections twice within a 14-day period and will undergo regular check-ups and symptom tracking. The study seeks to determine whether NRG-103 can prolong overall survival or disease-free survival in these patients, while also monitoring any medical issues that arise during treatment.
