About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Multicenter, Prospective Study of Sacituzumab Govitecan in Recurrent Glioblastoma

This is an open-label single arm study. All patients will receive the study drug. The aim of the study is to compare overall survival (OS) of patients with recurrent brain tumor, known as Glioblastoma (GBM) having high levels of a protein, Trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (Trop-2), expression on treatment with Sacituzumab Govitecan (SG) versus lomustine only which has been used in the past.

Read the detailed description

Subjects are expected to participate for up to treatment duration with continued follow up for survival until one year after the last dose of study drug. The total duration of the active part of the study for each subject will be approximately 18 weeks, divided as follows:

  • Up to 3 weeks predose (screening period)
  • 3-week treatment periods of Sacituzumab govitecan
  • Study termination visit 3-4 weeks after last dose of study medication

When a subject has completed the study termination or early termination visit, he/she and/or a family member will be contacted for survival information every 3 months until one year from last study dose.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sacituzumab GovitecanDrug

    Sacituzumab Govitecan will be administered by IV infusion over 3 hours for first administration and over 1 hour if tolerated. Subjects will be allowed to continue treatment until they have evidence of significant treatment-related toxicity or progressive disease.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival at 6 months including participants whose disease state has progressed

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    To assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of these patients on SG vs historical control of lomustine monotherapy

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    To assess the Overall Response Rate (ORR) of these patients on SG by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria

    Measured: 6 week intervals for 6 months, then every 3 months until End of Treatment ( defined as evidence of significant treatment related toxicity or progressive disease)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sacituzumab Govitecan in people with Recurrent Glioblastoma, run by The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio at 3 sites in United States.

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 27 inclusion and 19 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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 phase mean?

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?

Contact Epp Goodwin (210-450-1000, goodwine@uthscsa.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (OS) (time frame: 6 months). 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 30 Mar 2026.
