CTNI-34. INITIAL ANALYSIS OF PHASE-III TRIAL - STANDARD CHEMOTHERAPY VS. CHEMOTHERAPY GUIDED BY A CANCER STEM CELL TEST IN RECURRENT GLIOBLASTOMA (NCT03632135)

ABSTRACT: Abstract

BACKGROUND

ChemoID is a cancer stem cell (CSC) cytotoxicity assay for guiding personalized treatment in the clinical trial NCT03632135 using standard-of-care drugs for improving clinical outcomes. The ChemoID assay is a functional test that determines the response to chemotherapy treatments from a panel of FDA approved drugs or their combinations. The trial aims to determine the clinical utility of the ChemoID assay as a predictor of clinical response in recurrent glioblastoma (GBM).

METHODS

The study has been designed as a parallel group controlled clinical trial where participants with recurrent GBM amenable to surgery or biopsy are randomized at a ratio of 1:1 to either standard-of-care chemotherapy chosen by the physician or ChemoID-guided therapy. Response t
