A Phase I/II Clinical Trial on the Per-operative Intratumoral Administration of Myeloid Dendritic Cells Plus Ipilimumab and Nivolumab, Followed by Repeated Intracavitary Plus Intravenous Administration of Nivolumab in Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma.

Summary

Phase I/II clinical trial on the per-operative intra-tumoral administration of myeloid dendritic cells plus ipilimumab and nivolumab, followed by repeated intracavitary administration of ipilimumab and nivolumab plus intravenous administration of nivolumab in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. The aim of this clinical trial is to exploit the potential synergy of combined intra-tumoral CTLA-4 and autologous CD1c(BDCA-1)+/CD141(BDCA-3)+ myDC and systemic PD-1 blockade while minimizing the risk for increased immune-related toxicity by intratumoral administration of the CTLA-blocking mAb ipilimumab following the resection of the recurrent glioblastoma.
