Brain Tumor IND: ACT001 : How it works
Mechanism in glioblastoma models: targets STAT3 → lowers PD-L1 transcription / immunosuppression (preclinical + mechanistic). PMC
Additional glioma mechanism work: targets glioma stem-like cells and anti-tumor effects in GBM models (mechanistic preclinical). PMC

Brain Tumor IND: ACT001 : Safety:

  • First-in-human Phase I (advanced glioma): reported safe / well tolerated with PK and tolerability focus (ASCO abstract / JCO supplement). ASCOPubs+1
  • Pediatric DMG/DIPG Phase 1 dose escalation: reported well tolerated with preliminary anti-tumor activity at higher doses (conference abstract on Neuro-Oncology / OUP). OUP Academic+1

Brain Tumor IND: ACT001: Efficacy (signals, early):

  • Phase I glioma: clinical responses noted in a subset (pathologic response mentioned in abstract). ASCOPubs+1
  • Pediatric DMG/DIPG Phase 1: preliminary evidence of anti-tumor activity at highest dose levels (early signal, not definitive). PMC+1
  • Recurrent GBM combo program (ACT001 + anti-PD-1): designed to evaluate both safety and efficacy in surgically accessible recurrent GBM. ClinicalTrials

Brain Tumor IND: ACT001: Existing Trials:
NCT05053880 — ACT001 + anti-PD-1 in surgically accessible recurrent GBM.
NCT06838676 — Phase II ACT001 in children/adolescents with DIPG and H3K27-altered HGG (CONNECT2110). ClinicalTrials+1
