Study Summary

This clinical trial tests the safety and side effects of tumor treating fields in treating patients with gliomas located in the brainstem. Optune is a wearable, portable, treatment that creates low-intensity, wave-like electric fields called tumor treating fields (TTFields), which interfere with cancer cell division. TTFields may prevent growth or decrease size of gliomas in patients

Primary Outcome

Adverse event rates will be summarized descriptively using frequencies and percentages in addition to a tolerability rate defined as composite of any dose-limiting toxicity.
