Niacin Modulates Immune Responses in a Phase I Dose-Escalation Clinical Trial of Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma

This study provides Class IV evidence that niacin dose escalation modulates immune response in patients with glioblastoma treated with standard of care, including maximal safe resection, concurrent radiation and temozolomide, and adjuvant temozolomide administration. This is a Class IV study because it is an open-label trial with no blinding or comparison group.

Abstract

This study provides Class IV evidence that niacin dose escalation modulates immune response in patients with glioblastoma treated with standard of care, including maximal safe resection, concurrent radiation and temozolomide, and adjuvant temozolomide administration. This is a Class IV study because it is an open-label trial with no blinding or comparison group.
