From Kazia's website. "Clinical Trial Design The paxalisib arm of GBM AGILE will recruit newly diagnosed patients with the unmethylated MGMT promotor, a genetic marker that denotes near-total resistance to temozolomide, the existing FDA-approved standard of care. In addition, the study will recruit recurrent patients who have progressed despite treatment with temozolomide. The adaptive design allows GBM AGILE to balance between these two patient groups according to emerging data, so it is possible for paxalisib to emerge successful in one or both populations. The primary endpoint of GBM AGILE is overall survival, which is considered the gold standard for the evaluation of new cancer therapies, and which is the preferred approval endpoint for regulators such as the US FDA. The study will recruit up to 200 patients on paxalisib in total, and these will be compared against a roughly similar number of patients in a control group, with patients being randomly allocated between the groups. The total data set for paxalisib will therefore include up to approximately 450 patients from GBM AGILE. The duration of paxalisib’s enrolment is initially estimated to be approximately 30-36 months. However, the adaptive design of GBM AGILE means that if a definitive conclusion is evident at an earlier stage, the study will conclude at that point, with a commensurate reduction in timelines and cost".
IMO an important point to consider for investing in Kazia is what the GBM data results have shown to date for paxalisib in regards to patients safety no patients have experienced a serious adverse event (SAE).
