What to Expect as a Participant

You will actively receive the study intervention — which may be a drug, biologic, device, or procedure.

Phase 1 is the earliest stage of human testing — safety and dosage are the primary focus. Visits are frequent and medical supervision is intensive. You will be among the first people to receive this treatment.

This trial targets 45 participants in total. It began in 2025-01-30 with a primary completion date of 2028-01-31.

Brief Summary

The goal of Phase 1 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose and the recommended Phase 2 dose of ivonescimab that can be given to patients who have recurrent glioblastoma. The goal of Phase 2 of this clinical research study is to learn if the recommended Phase 2 dose of ivonescimab found in Phase 1 can help to control the disease.

Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN d. Coagulation: prothrombin time (PT) or international normalized ratio (INR) * 1.5 × ULN, and partial prothrombin time (PTT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN (unless abnormalities are unrelated to coagulopathy or prophylactic coagulation) 8. Female patients of childbearing age must have negative serum pregnancy test results before randomization or per region-specific guidance documented in the informed consent and a negative urine pregnancy test on the day of first dose prior to dosing. 9. Female patient of childbearing potential having sex with an unsterilized male partner must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception from the beginning of screening until 90 days after the last dose of the ivonescimab. 10. Male patients of childbearing potential having sex with a female partner of childbearing potential must agree to use an effective method of contraception from the beginning of screening until Day 90 after the last dose of ivonescimab. 11. Ability to understand and willingness to sign informed consent form prior to the initiation of study and any study procedures. 1. Participants with cognitive impairment may be enrolled. The formal consent for such participants will be obtained from their legally authorized representative. However, participants will be informed about the research to the maximum extent compatible with their understanding. Assent will be obtained from such participants who will sign and date the consent form if capable. 2. Non-English speakers are allowed to enroll provided consent and all visits will be conducted with a medical interpreter. Exclusion Criteria: 1.

Hemoptysis (defined as coughing up ≥ 0.5 teaspoon of fresh blood or small blood clots) Note: transient hemoptysis associated with diagnostic bronchoscopy is allowed. c. Nasal bleeding /epistaxis (bloody nasal discharge is allowed) d. Need for therapeutic anticoagulant therapy Note: Prophylactic anticoagulation for DVT/PE or to maintain venous patency is allowed. 4. Current hypertension with systolic blood pressure ≥ 150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg after oral antihypertensive therapy 5.

Unstable angina, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] classification ≥ grade 2) or vascular disease (eg, aortic aneurysm at risk of rupture), or other cardiac impairment that may affect the safety evaluation of the study drug (eg, poorly controlled arrhythmias, myocardial ischemia) 2. History of esophageal gastric varices, severe ulcers, wounds that do not heal, abdominal fistula, intra-abdominal abscesses, or acute gastrointestinal bleeding 3. History of arterial thromboembolic event, venous thromboembolic event of Grade 3 and above as specified in National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 5.0, transient ischemic attack, cerebrovascular accident, hypertensive crisis, or hypertensive encephalopathy 4.
