GammaTile and Stupp in Newly Diagnosed GBM

Exploring new treatments for newly diagnosed brain cancer.

Phase 4

This study is for people with a newly diagnosed brain cancer called GBM, which stands for glioblastoma multiforme. GBM is a fast-growing type of brain tumor. The study aims to see if a new treatment called GammaTile (GT) can help improve outcomes when combined with the standard care, known as the Stupp Protocol. GT uses a special type of radiation called Cs-131, which is placed directly at the tumor site during surgery. This allows for faster and potentially more effective treatment. The Stupp Protocol involves chemotherapy with a drug called temozolomide (TMZ) and regular radiation therapy. The study will ensure that the combination of these treatments is safe and well-tolerated. Participants will receive both GT and traditional radiation treatments. Researchers will monitor the tumor's response and overall survival rates. To join, patients must be 18 or older and able to follow the treatment plan. They must also meet specific health criteria.

  • The study lasts until the treatment and follow-up are complete.
  • Participants must attend regular visits for treatment and monitoring.
  • Potential benefits include improved treatment effectiveness, but risks include side effects from radiation and chemotherapy.

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
