Effect of Radiotherapy Concurrent of TTFields in Patients With Glioblastoma (ECTG001)

May 20, 2021 updated by: Zhongnan Hospital

The Clinical Effect and Safety of Radiotherapy Concurrent of TTFields in the Treatment of Post-operation Patients With Glioblastoma.

TTFields has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of patients with glioblastoma multiforme. However, the clinical effect and safety of radiotherapy concurrent of TTFields is not definite. In this study, the investigators conduct a phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this strategy.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: E group
All patients received chemoradiotherapy (CRT) ( PTV-GTV: 60Gy at 2.0Gy per fraction, 5 fractions per week for 6 weeks; PTV-CTV: 54Gy at 1.8Gy per fraction, 5 fractions per week for 6 weeks) with a Temozolomide (TMZ) regimen(75mg/m2 per day during RT)and TTFields therapy during RT. The TTFields therapy started on the day the radiotherapy started.
The TTFields, consisting of low-intensity, 200 kHz frequency, alternating electric fields, was delivered (≥ 18 hours/d) via 4 transducer arrays on the shaved scalp and connected to a portable device.
No Intervention: C group
All patients received chemoradiotherapy (CRT) ( PTV-GTV: 60Gy at 2.0Gy per fraction, 5 fractions per week for 6 weeks; PTV-CTV: 54Gy at 1.8Gy per fraction, 5 fractions per week for 6 weeks) with a Temozolomide (TMZ) regimen(75mg/m2 per day during RT)
