Key requirements
Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.
- Ages 18 years and older
- All sexes
- No healthy volunteers
- Adult, Older adult
Who may be able to join
- Previously confirmed neuropathological diagnosis of glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype according to the WHO 2021 classification.
- Radiographic evidence of first recurrence or progressive glioblastoma according to RANO 2.0 criteria after first-line treatment with biopsy or maximal safe resection and standard radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy having occurred at least 3 months after the end of prior radiotherapy. Prior first-line therapy may include a combination of:
- Any systemic antineoplastic treatment other than nitroureas
- Tumor-treating fields
- Conventionally fractionated or abbreviated (minimum 15 fractions) radiotherapy
- Increased [18F]]FET PET tracer uptake inside or in the vicinity of tumor. Specifically, amino acid-based molecular imaging using [18F]FET PET will be evaluated following co-registration with MRI. The allocated physician/reader will assess whether the observed pathologically increased amino acid uptake is located within the tumor or in the vicinity. This determination will serve as a guidance to confirm whether the uptake is tumor-associated. The uptake must be clearly discernible from background activity and measurable per PET RANO 1.0 criteria, as determined by central review.

- Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to the first dose of investigational drug product; must not be breast-feeding; and must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception during treatment and for 6 months following last dose of investigational product.
- Male patients must agree to use condoms during sex during the treatment period and for 3 months after the last dose of the investigational drug product and must not make semen donations during treatment and for 6 months following last dose of investigational drug product. For male patients with female partners of childbearing potential, females must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception during the treatment period and for 6 months following last dose of investigational drug product.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Safety and Tolerability
Assessing TEAEs type according to MedDRA (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities), frequency, severity according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) V5.0, seriousness, and relationship of study treatment will be assessed. Laboratory abnormalities will be assessed according to the NCI CTCAE V5.0.
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 2 years
Dose Optimization
Part 1 of the study is being done to identify the best dose to use for Part 2 of the study
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 2 years
Secondary outcomes (3)
TLX101-Tx Concentration in the blood
Monitor how TLX101-Tx and its radioactive component move through the body over time. This includes checking how much of it is found in the blood at different times.
Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at around 12 weeks.
Radiation Dosimetry
We will measure how much radiation from TLX101-Tx reaches the tumor and the bone marrow. This is done using special imaging scans (called SPECT, CT, and MRI) that help us see where the treatment goes in the body.
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 2 years
TLX101-Tx Concentration in the Urine
Monitor how TLX101-Tx and its radioactive component move through the body over time. This includes checking how much is passed out in urine at different times following treatment.
Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at around 12 weeks.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing TLX-101-Tx + Lomustine and TLX101-Tx in people with Neoplastic Disease and Glioblastoma, run by Telix Pharmaceuticals (Innovations) Pty Limited at 9 sites in 4 countries.
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 14 inclusion and 15 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 11 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 9 sites in Australia, Belgium, Netherlands, Austria. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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 Clinical Project Manager (2154902000, samuel.park@telixpharma.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 11 Aug 2026.
