In the first case, a 32-year-old woman with grade four GBM (MGMT-unmethylated) received conventional radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy with VAL-083 followed by adjuvant VAL-083 for a total of 13 cycles of VAL-083. The patient was tumor-free and has survived more than four years as of the last follow-up in March 2023. In the second case, a 49-year-old man with grade four GBM (MGMT-unmethylated) received radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy with VAL-083 followed by VAL-083 as an adjuvant for a total of 12 cycles. Two years after the initial treatment with VAL-083 was discontinued, a new lesion was found, and the patient had a second resection, which revealed a grade four astrocytoma. The patient was re-treated with VAL-083 and was stable as of the last follow-up in March 2023.
