PNOC022

Clinical trial of combinations of various agents (in particular dordaviprone/ONC201) for the treatment of diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) in children and young adults

This study offers trial enrollment at different disease stages: newly-diagnosed, after completion of radiation therapy, and at time of progression. ONC201 is an novel therapeutic class and will be used as a backbone for the different trial treatments. ONC201 will be combined with novel agents that have been shown in preclinical studies to be additive or synergistic in combination. This trial will utilize an adaptive platform design in that the different treatment arms for each cohort will be opened and closed based on ongoing preclinical investigation as well as evolving outcome data from the trial, such as blood brain barrier penetration and/or efficacy signals. We aim to understand the effects in DMG tumor tissue for each incorporated therapy and offer combination therapies at different stages of disease. Further, such a facile trial design will allow for rapid incorporation of new agents based on our and others’ preclinical investigations.
