Study Summary

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest primary malignant neoplasm of the central nervous system in adults. Despite an aggressive multimodality treatment approach including surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, overall survival remains poor. Pembrolizumab has recently been approved in the United States for the treatment of patients with advanced and metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, locally advanced urothelial carcinoma, classical Hodgkin lymphoma, unresectable or metastatic melanoma This study is being performed to determine whether the triple combination of pembrolizumab when added to TTFields (Optune®) and adjuvant temozolomide increases progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with newly diagnosed GBM as compared to historical control data.

Primary Outcome

Time from enrollment to progression or death or censoring, whichever occurs first. The study team will use the one-sample log-rank test to compare PFS in the triple combination arm relative to the historical control arm to determine whether the triple combination treatment increases PFS in newly diagnosed GBM patients when compared to TTFields+TMZ historical control patients from the EF-14 study. Evaluability for progression free survival required participants to receive adjuvant TMZ, Optune and
