It can be hard to keep track of new clinical trial opportunities opening across the United States, especially as we continue to navigate the public health crisis created by the coronavirus (COVID-19). There are many clinical trials actively enrolling patients, and this report provides a summary of the studies that have recently opened or started for primary brain tumor patients*. To learn more about each trial, and to contact the party responsible for enrolling patients, just follow the hyperlink.**
Below is a list of phase III clinical trials that are currently enrolling patients as recorded at the close of 2021. A phase III clinical trial is traditionally the last, pivotal step in the evaluation of a potential new medicine before it is approved for use by all patients with the indicated disease.
Many of these are trials of a “novel/investigational agent” – meaning it is the first time a particular treatment is being tried for brain tumor patients. There are also a number of trials with therapies already in use for some brain tumor patients, for which researchers are evaluating these existing treatments in different combinations, different dosing regimens, and/or specific subgroups of patients.
