Gliomas are tumors that arise from glial cells in the brain and spinal cord and include diverse types ranging from low-grade tumors to aggressive glioblastoma. According to Fassil B. Mesfin et al. (2024), gliomas account for approximately one-quarter of the 80,000–90,000 primary brain tumors diagnosed annually in the United States. Current treatment includes surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, while targeted therapies and immunotherapies are gaining attention. The growing focus on molecular biomarkers, blood-brain barrier penetration, tumor heterogeneity, recurrence, and treatment resistance is strengthening drug development. According to the glioma drug pipeline analysis by Expert Market Research, these advances are expected to support continued pipeline expansion in the coming years.
Major companies involved in the glioma pipeline analysis include HighField Biopharmaceuticals Corporation, Aveta Biomics, Inc., and others.
Leading drugs currently in the pipeline include HF1K16, APG-157, HMPL-306, and others.
Advances in IDH-targeted therapies, CAR-T and vaccine-based immunotherapies, alongside combination regimens and biomarker-driven trials, are expected to accelerate clinical development and treatment innovation.
The Glioma Pipeline Analysis Report by Expert Market Research gives comprehensive insights into glioma therapeutics currently undergoing clinical trials. It covers various aspects related to the details of each of these drugs under development for glioma. The glioma report assessment includes the analysis of over 100 pipeline drugs and 50+ companies. The glioma pipeline landscape will include an analysis based on efficacy and safety measure outcomes published for the trials, including their adverse effects on patients suffering from the condition, and alignment with glioma treatment guidelines to ensure optimal care practices.
The assessment part will include a detailed analysis of each drug, drug class, clinical studies, phase type, drug type, route of administration, and ongoing product development activities related to glioma.

Glioma is a group of tumors that develops from glial cells, which support and protect neurons in the central nervous system. It occurs when genetic and molecular changes cause glial cells to grow and divide abnormally, forming tumors in the brain or spinal cord. Gliomas vary by molecular features, grade, location, and aggressiveness.
Treatment includes surgery to remove accessible tumors, followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy when appropriate. Targeted therapies and clinical trials may be considered based on tumor genetics, grade, recurrence, location, and patient factors. In August 2025, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted accelerated approval to dordaviprone (Modeyso) for patients aged 1 year and older with progressive diffuse midline glioma harboring an H3 K27M mutation after prior therapy. The approval marked the first systemic treatment for this population.
The pipeline is supported by a significant disease burden and continued clinical research. According to Fassil B. Mesfin et al. (2024), the United States records an estimated 80,000–90,000 new primary brain tumor cases annually, with approximately 25% classified as gliomas. As per M'hamed Bentourkia et al. (2025), glioma incidence in Japan was reported at 6.6 cases per 100,000 persons. These epidemiological trends highlight the need for innovative glioma treatment, targeted therapies, and emerging glioma drugs in clinical development.
This section of the report covers the analysis of glioma drug candidates based on several segmentations, including:
By Phase
The pipeline assessment report covers 50+ drug analyses based on phase:
By Drug Class
The glioma pipeline analysis report covers 50+ drug analyses based on drug classes:
By Route of Administration
The pipeline assessment report covers 50+ drug analyses based on the route of administration:
The report covers phase I, phase II, phase III, phase IV, and early-phase drugs. The coverage includes an in-depth analysis of each drug across these phases. According to Expert Market Research's analysis, phase I and II cover a major share of the total Glioma clinical trials, each accounting for 42% of the drug pipeline. Early phase I represents 8%, and Phase III represents 8%. This strong concentration in early- and mid-stage development supports continued innovation, with a substantial pipeline of investigational therapies expected to advance clinical development and positively expand future treatment opportunities in the market.
The drug molecule categories covered under the glioma pipeline analysis include small molecules, peptides, and oligonucleotides. The glioma report provides a comparative analysis of the drug classes for each drug in various phases of clinical trials for glioma. Alkylating agents in the glioma drug pipeline are being developed to provide new treatment options for malignant gliomas. For instance, tinostamustine is an investigational therapy that combines bifunctional alkylating activity with pan histone deacetylase inhibition. This dual mechanism may enhance tumor cell damage and represents a potential first-in-class approach for treating glioblastoma and other malignant gliomas.
The EMR report for the glioma pipeline covers the profile of key companies involved in clinical trials and their drugs under development. It provides a detailed glioma therapeutic assessment, analyzing the competitive dynamics of the clinical trial landscape. Below is the list of a few players involved in glioma clinical trials:
This section covers the detailed analysis of each drug under multiple phases, including phase I, phase II, phase III, phase IV, and emerging drugs for glioma. It includes product description, trial ID, study type, drug class, mode of administration, and recruitment status of glioma drug candidates.
HF1K16, sponsored by HighField Biopharmaceuticals Corporation, is being evaluated with bevacizumab in a multicenter, open-label Phase II study for patients with recurrent or progressive glioma. The study is examining the combination’s preliminary antitumor efficacy, safety, and tolerability. HF1K16 is an immunomodulating liposome encapsulating all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), which is administered by infusion and is designed to promote the differentiation of immunosuppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells into mature immune cells, helping restore antitumor immune activity. The study is expected to be completed by December 2028.
APG-157 is an investigational oral immunotherapy sponsored by Aveta Biomics, Inc., and is being evaluated with bevacizumab in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma who have progressed on bevacizumab alone. The Phase 1/2 study is examining whether the combination will improve progression-free survival, overall survival, quality of life, and tumor response while characterizing APG-157 pharmacokinetics. APG-157 is designed to reprogram the tumor microenvironment and activate antitumor immunity. Patients will dissolve two 100-mg pastilles in the mouth three times daily, while continuing standard-of-care bevacizumab. The study is expected to be completed in June 2027.
HMPL-306, sponsored by HUTCHMED, is being evaluated in a multicenter, randomized Phase I study for patients with gliomas harboring IDH1 and/or IDH2 mutations. The drug is a novel dual inhibitor targeting mutant IDH1 and IDH2 enzymes, potentially addressing resistance associated with switching between these isoforms. The study is examining its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy. It is being administered to patients during the safety lead-in and perioperative phases. The study is expected to complete in December 2027, with primary completion anticipated in December 2026 and an estimated enrollment of 52 patients.
