Official title: Single-arm, Dose-escalation Phase 1/2 Study of Olaptesed Pegol (NOX-A12) in Combination With Irradiation in Inoperable or Partially Resected First-line Glioblastoma Patients With Unmethylated MGMT Promoter With a Multiple-arm Expansion Group
The purpose of this study is to obtain first, exploratory information on the safety and efficacy of (i) olaptesed pegol in combination with radiation therapy in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma of unmethylated MGMT promoter status either not amenable to resection (biopsy only) or after incomplete tumor resection, and (ii) olaptesed pegol in combination with radiation therapy and bevacizumab in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma of unmethylated MGMT promoter status either not amenable to resection (biopsy only) or after incomplete or complete tumor resection.
Further arms are included (i) to establish safety for the combination of olaptesed pegol at three different doses in addition to radiotherapy and bevacizumab, (ii) to explore the benefit of combining olaptesed pegol at different dose levels with bevacizumab in order to define the doses to move forward into a subsequent randomized dose-finding study, (iii) to explore the contribution of the therapy components olaptesed pegol and bevacizumab to patient benefit and (iv) to put the clinical outcome of these treatment regimens into perspective with the standard of care treatment with temozolomide and radiotherapy.

Efficacy - Tumor vascularization as per vascular MRI
Changes from baseline in tumor vascularization over time as %cerebral blood volume
Measured: through study completion, an average of 3 years
Neurologic functions as measured by the NANO scale
Change from baseline in neurologic performance scores by Neurologic Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (NANO) scale as an objective and quantifiable metric of neurologic function evaluable during a routine office examination. The NANO Scale evaluates 9 major domains of neurologic function, with each domain being scored on a range from 0 to 2 or 3.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing Olaptesed pegol, Radiotherapy and Bevacizumab in people with Glioblastoma, run by TME Pharma AG at 6 sites in Germany.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 52 inclusion and 107 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 6 sites in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Safety - Number of patients with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE (time frame: through study completion, an average of 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Jun 2025.
