First Patient Dosed in Ph 2 Trial of DOC1021 (dubodencel) for GBM
“We are tremendously proud to announce the dosing of the first patient in this critical Phase 2 study, marking an important milestone in our mission to develop a much-needed treatment for patients with glioblastoma, a disease that, despite significant advances in neuro-oncology, remains one of the most challenging cancers to treat, with patient outcomes still falling short of expectations,” said Dr. Laura Aguilar, Chief Medical Officer of Diakonos Oncology. “This Phase 2 trial represents an important step in evaluating DOC1021’s potential to enhance the immune response and work alongside standard therapies. We are optimistic that this approach could lead to meaningful improvements in survival and quality of life for patients facing this aggressive disease.”
