An Interventional, Multicenter, and International Phase 1/2, Light-dose-escalation Study to Investigate the Safety and Feasibility of Intraoperative Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) With Pentalafen® Drug and Heliance® Solution Device in Male and Female Patients 18 to 75 Years of Age With Grade IV Glioblastoma.

Summary

The primary objective of this clinical trial is to determine the safety and tolerability of two doses of light in intraoperative PDT added to standard of care; temozolomide-based chemotherapy in male and female patients aged 18 to 75 with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. This treatment will be carried out in addition to the maximal surgical resection. Data collected during this trial will be used to design the upcoming pivotal study . The study will utilize an independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board (iDSMB) that will review safety data to allow dose escalation.
