ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND
IDHwt glioblastoma with unmethylated MGMT gene promoter carries a poor prognosis. Preclinical studies have shown that combination of radiotherapy and dual immunotherapy with nivolumab and IDO inhibition significantly prolongs survival of mice with an orthotopic glioblastoma [Ladomersky, et al. CCR 2018;24(11):2559-2573]. In a clinical trial in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma with unmethylated MGMT we substituted temozolomide for dual immunotherapy combination. METHODS
Phase 1 trial [NCT04047706] using a 3 + 3 dose-escalation design. All received standard radiotherapy (30 x 2 Gy) with addition of once daily oral BMS-986205 and intravenous nivolumab (240mg every 2 weeks) begining on day 1 of radiotherapy and continuing until disease progressio
