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 24 participants in total. It began in 2024-03-15 with a primary completion date of 2025-09-15.

Brief Summary

This is a single center Phase I study of a new adjuvant CD200 activation receptor ligand, CD200AR-L, in combination with imiquimod and GBM6-AD vaccine to treat malignant glioma in children and young adults. The primary objective of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CD200AR-L when given with a fixed dose of GBM6-AD vaccine, imiquimod, and a single dose of radiation for patients with recurrent High Grade Glioma (HGG) or following standard of care therapy radiation therapy for newly diagnosed Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Midline Glioma/Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG/DMG).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Histologically confirmed newly diagnosed DIPG/DMG with documented H3K27M alteration (based on IHC or DNA sequencing performed in a CLIA-certified laboratory) or recurrent HGG. Patients cannot enroll until they are a minimum of 14 days and preferably within 30 days from the last dose of radiation. * Diagnosis of recurrent HGG based on MRI findings. Recurrent HGG must have received standard of care radiation at diagnosis. Prior biopsy material will be required to confirm diagnosis of HGG; however, biopsy of the recurrent/progressive lesion will not be required for study enrollment. * Maximal safe resection is preferred prior to clinical trial enrollment if indicated and feasible. * Clinically stable on a dose of corticosteroids not to exceed an equivalent of dexamethasone 0.1 mg/kg/day (maximum 4 mg) for at least 2 weeks prior to study enrollment. * Prior therapy wash-out is required * Minimum of 28 days since last dose of any targeted therapy (including bevacizumab), immunotherapy, investigational agents. * Minimum of 10 days since any anti-cancer intervention: cytoreductive surgery/laser ablation and a minimum of 28 days since any viral therapy * Voluntary written consent obtained by patient if ≥18 years of age or a parent or guardian if \<18 years of age before the performance of any study-related procedure not part of standard medical care * Able to comply with follow-up visit schedule (i.e., return to clinic for follow-up visits). * Willing to allow for collection of pre-treatment research related blood collection \[1-5 mL red top tube and 2-10 mL green top tubes (or to a max of 2 ml/kg of body weight)\] for immune characterization. If a patient does not subsequently enroll in the study, the samples will be destroyed according to institutional protocol. * Lansky play performance score ≥60 (\<16 years) or Karnofsky (≥16 years) performance score of ≥60 * Sexually active persons of child-bearing potential or with partners of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective form of contraception during the 2-year treatment period. Urine pregnancy tests will be obtained at defined time points during protocol therapy. * Adequate bone marrow reserve: Absolute neutrophil (segmented and bands) count (ANC) ≥1.0 x 10E9/L, platelets ≥75 x 10E9/L; Hemoglobin ≥8 g/dL * Hepatic: Bilirubin ≤1.3 mg/dL and SGPT (ALT) ≤2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age * Renal: Normal serum creatinine for age or creatinine clearance \>60 ml/min/1.73 mE2 Exclusion Criteria: * Known sensitivity to the GBM6-AD tumor lysate vaccine, CD200AR-L, or imiquimod. * Unable to complete a standard upfront course of radiotherapy due to disease progression or intolerance of therapy. * Radiographic evidence of diffuse leptomeningeal disease. * Prior history of malignancy within 5 years of enrollment. * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements. * Concurrent use of tumor treatment field devices (e.g., Optune) - permitted until the time of consent. * History of any laboratory findings consistent with any uncontrolled immune system abnormalities such as hyper-immunity (e.g., autoimmune diseases, thyroid dysfunction, lupus, scleroderma, etc.) and hypo-immunity \[e.g., myelodysplastic disorders, marrow failures, human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS), transplant immune-suppression, etc.\]. Any known autoimmune disease must be clinically silent and without associated laboratory abnormalities for at least 1 year in the absence of any disease directed therapy or systemic steroids. * Any conditions that could potentially alter immune function (e.g., HIV/AIDS, hepatitis B, untreated hepatitis C, multiple sclerosis, renal failure). * Receiving ongoing treatment with any immunosuppressive drug for any reason, excluding those patients requiring a low dose of corticosteroids equivalent to dexamethasone 0.1 mg/kg/day (maximum 4 mg) or less for treatment of tumor-related edema. * Not able to tolerate an MRI or radiation therapy even with reasonable accommodations or sedation. * Known pregnancy or anticipated conception during the 1-year study period
