Stem Cell Analysis, Omics (Including Immunomics) and Artificial Intelligence in Glioblastoma

Study Purpose

The study aims at: 1. Perform a multilayer analysis relying on tight integration of in-depth multi-omics approaches with clinical data to discover immune markers, with attention to age and sex differences, predicting prognosis and defining key life/environmental elements, to guide AI-driven personalised treatments and ensure improved care and QoL of glioblastoma patients. 2. To deepen glioblastoma knowledge through the study of glioblastoma stem cell cultures and to assess the sensitivity of glioblastoma stem cell cultures to a number of chemotherapeutics in different experimental conditions. 3. To create a comprehensive, stakeholder-generated guidelines for the ethical use of patient data for artificial intelligence-assisted prediction systems in glioblastoma, including an online, easily accessible patient information brochure to increase patient empowerment in the field.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

To be enrolled in the study patients must: 1. Have a radiological diagnosis of supratentorial glioblastoma, or. 2. Have a radiological diagnosis of first recurrence of a primary supratentorial glioblastoma (for which a formal histopathologic diagnosis of glioblastoma had made at first surgery), according with RANO criteria; 3. Be a candidate to neurosurgery for glioblastoma at the Operational Unit of Neurosurgery Fondazione Policlinico Gemelli IRCCS; 4. Be of an age of 18 years or above; 5. Provide written informed consent for participation to the study. Exclusion criteria. To be enrolled in the study patients must not: 1. Have not enough pathological material removed at surgery available both for mandatory routine histopathological diagnosis and for the present study, as judged by the Principal Investigator; 2. Have not a definitive pathological diagnosis of a primary supratentorial glioblastoma, according with 2021 World Health Organization classification.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05941234
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.
