Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma Cancer Clinical Trial
According to the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, GBM is the most common malignant brain tumor accounting for approximately 48% of all primary brain tumors with a low survival rate of approximately 40% in the first year after diagnosis and only 17% in the second year. In preclinical settings, we evaluated the preclinical activity of N-803 in a murine GL261-luc glioblastoma model. We showed that N-803, as a single-agent treatment as well as in combination with an anti-PD-1 antibody or stereotactic radiosurgery, exhibits a robust antitumor immune response resulting in prolonged survival including complete remission in tumor bearing mice. N-803-treated mice had decreased tumor volume and increased median survival compared to control. In addition, N-803 treatment resulted in long-term immune memory against glioblastoma tumor rechallenge.

QUILT-3.078 Recurrent GBM or Progressive GBM
A new randomized, multi-center, Phase 3 trial is currently being developed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combinations of N-803, PD-L1 t-haNK and bevacizumab in patients with recurrent or progressive GBM. A pilot phase will evaluate the safety of this combination prior to the randomized Phase 3 portion versus bevacizumab monotherapy as the current standard of care.

Glioblastoma is not only one of the most common tumors of brain tissue, it also is one of the most lethal cancers. By orchestrating the body’s protective NK and T cells, we believe we can potentially train the immune system to target and even destroy the tumor cells of glioblastoma and other cancers.
