Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Survivin-loaded dendritic cell injection

The standard treatment regimen for glioblastoma (GBM) is postoperative combined chemoradiotherapy plus adjuvant chemotherapy. Concurrent radiotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ) at 75 mg/m² is administered for 6 weeks in total. After an interval of 4 weeks (28 days), patients proceed to multiple cycles of adjuvant TMZ chemotherapy. Each 28-day cycle consists of oral temozolomide 150-200 mg/m² daily for 5 consecutive days, followed by a 23-day drug holiday, and the regimen is repeated every 28 days.

Survivin-targeted DC cell injection regimen The Survivin-targeted DC cell injection is administered on Day 9 (±1 day) after completion of the 6-week standard concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Administration routes include intradermal and intravenous injection. Dosing is performed on Day 0, Day 14 (±1 day) and Day 28 (±2 day), for a total of 3 administrations.

The total specification of Survivin-targeted DC cell injection is 6 mL per dose. The dose is divided between intradermal and intravenous route
