Sitagliptin in Recurrent/Progressive Grade 4 Glioma, Phase 1
Summary
NIH has registered a Phase 1 clinical trial (NCT07541781) evaluating sitagliptin in combination with bevacizumab for the treatment of recurrent or progressive grade 4 malignant glioma. The trial is enrolling adult patients with glioblastoma or recurrent glioma and is expected to run through April 2026. The study aims to assess efficacy and determine the maximum appropriate dose of sitagliptin when combined with standard-of-care bevacizumab.
“Sitagliptin, when combined with standard-of-care drug bevacizumab, is being tested to 1) find out if it is effective at treating gliomas that have returned or progressed after treatment, and 2) find out what the highest dose of sitagliptin is appropriate to give when combined with bevacizumab.”
What changed
NIH has registered a Phase 1 clinical trial (NCT07541781) on ClinicalTrials.gov testing sitagliptin in combination with bevacizumab for recurrent or progressive grade 4 glioma. The trial enrolls adult patients diagnosed with glioblastoma or recurrent glioma and is listed as Phase 1 with an anticipated completion date of April 2026.
Healthcare providers, clinical investigators, and pharmaceutical companies involved in neuro-oncology research should be aware of this trial as it represents an active Phase 1 investigation combining a DPP-4 inhibitor with anti-VEGF therapy for a high-grade malignancy with limited treatment options. No compliance obligations or reporting requirements arise from this registration entry.
