Brief Summary
This is a Phase 1, single-arm MT-125 dose escalation study followed by a Phase 2, randomized parallel design dose expansion phase, to determine the safety and tolerability of MT-125 administered 5 consecutive days a week with 2 days off for the 6 weeks of outpatient treatment of Radiotherapy (RT) plus TMZ. Participants with newly diagnosed histologically or molecularly confirmed IDH wild type and MGMT methylated GBM will be eligible to enroll. The dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observation window will be 6 weeks, starting with the first dose of MT-125 administration and chemoradiation. A Bayesian Optimal Interval (BOIN) adaptive trial design will be used to efficiently evaluate up to four dose levels. Secondary endpoints for this Phase 1/2 study will include determination of the MTD, the systemic PK of MT-125, and the RP2D of MT-125. Once the MTD is defined, additional participants will be enrolled as part of an expansion cohort, with a randomized parallel design, which will include up to 2 dose levels which are expected to be MTD and one dose below the MTD. Up to 36 participants will be enrolled in the study (up to 24 participants in the dose escalation phase and up to a total of 12 participants maximum per dose level for the two expansion cohorts).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Dose Limiting Toxicity Measurement
The dose escalation portion of this study will follow a BOIN design with cohorts containing a min of 3 DLT evaluable participants. If the observed DLT rate at the current dose is ≤0.236, then the decision will be to escalate the dose to the next higher dose level; if the observed DLT rate at the current dose is \>0.359, then the decision will be to deescalate the dose to the next lower dose level; otherwise, the decision will be to stay at the current dose level.
Day 1 through 6 weeks of treatment
Incidence and Severity of AEs
Incidence and Severity, attribution, grade and type of AE will be assessed based on the NCI CTCAE v5.

- Prothrombin time (PT)/ International normalized ratio (INR)/ Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) ≤1.5 x ULN OR if participant is receiving anticoagulant therapy and INR or aPTT is within target range of therapy
- Serum eGFR ≥60 ml/min
- QTc 470 ms on triplicate 12 lead ECG ≤29 days prior to registration. NOTE: QTc intervals will be corrected using Fridericia's formula (Fridericia 1920)

- a. If \>7 days between last test and first dose of study treatment, the serum pregnancy test will be repeated.
- +4 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Any of the following because this study involves an investigational agent, the genotoxic, mutagenic, and teratogenic effects of which on the developing fetus and newborn are unknown:
- Pregnant persons
- Nursing persons
- Persons of childbearing potential and persons able to father a child who are unwilling to employ adequate contraception (see Appendix 2 for highly effective forms of contraception)
- Co-morbid systemic illnesses or other severe concurrent disease which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the participant inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and toxicity of the prescribed regimens.
- Receiving any other investigational agent.
- Any concomitant disease, condition, or treatment that could interfere with the conduct of the study, or that would, in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor, pose an unacceptable risk to the participant in the study or interfere with the interpretation of study data.
- Other active malignancy requiring therapy such as RT, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy. Participants on hormonal therapy for treated breast or prostate cancer are permitted if they meet other eligibility criteria. NOTE: Participants with malignancies under active surveillance are still eligible.
