The clinical landscape for FPS-ZM1 is currently defined by a clinical trial sponsored by the City of Hope Medical Center, which is currently not yet recruiting. This Phase I, first-in-human study investigates the application of FPS-ZM1 for managing post-operative cerebral edema in patients with glioblastoma, malignant glioma, and their recurrent forms. The trial aims to establish the preliminary therapeutic utility and safety of targeted RAGE inhibition in advanced neuro-oncology indications.
