A Phase III Study of Re-Irradiation in Recurrent Glioblastoma

March 14, 2016 updated by: AHS Cancer Control Alberta

A Randomized Phase III Study of Re-Irradiation in Recurrent Glioblastoma

The investigators hope to improve overall median survival of patients with recurrent Glioblastoma by investigating continuous low-dose daily Temozolomide plus or minus five treatments of re-irradiation.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a stratified study for patients with recurrent intracranial glioblastoma or gliosarcoma previously treated with concurrent chemoradiation presenting radiographic progression or recurrence of tumour. Patients are stratified by extent of resection, time to re-irradiation and re-irradiation volume.
