Study Summary

Preoperative therapy has not been well studied in resectable glioblastoma. This study attempts to prospectively assess the feasibility and efficacy of preoperative chemo radiation in improving local control, as this is the predominant mode of failure in these patients leading to poor outcomes. This Phase II study design would be used to proceed with the study treatment after meeting pre-specified events in the initial phase, with goal being to determine whether the new treatment paradigm is sufficiently promising to warrant a major controlled clinical evaluation against the standard therapy.

Primary Outcome

Number of participants with no study related undue toxicity or progression within the limits of stage one patients. Toxicity is defined as: progression precluding surgery, unanticipated neurological decompensation, non-completion of neoadjuvant therapy (other than protocol defined dose adjustments or discontinuation), treatment related delay of \>6 weeks to surgery, and/or major unforeseen surgical complication requiring repeat surgical intervention including other than non-life-threatening infe

Interventions

  • RADIATION Neoadjuvant chemoradiation
  • DRUG Drug Therapy with Temozolomide (benzolamide) (Standard of Care)
  • PROCEDURE Surgery post Radiation and Temozolomide (benzolamide)
