Personalized Drug Screening for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma

This study is testing a new way to treat newly diagnosed glioblastoma (a type of brain cancer). Researchers will take cells from your tumor and test them with combinations of up to three FDA-approved drugs to find the best personalized treatment for you. This personalized drug combination will be given along with standard treatments like radiation and TMZ (temozolomide). The main goal is to see how safe this personalized drug approach is. You may be able to join if you are 18 or older, have newly diagnosed glioblastoma that can be surgically removed, and have a life expectancy of more than 6 months. The study is currently recruiting participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study with a planned enrollment of 10 participants. It is not specified if it is randomized or blinded.
What's involved
Not specified in the trial record.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your safety will be monitored from the first dose of the study drug until your cancer progresses or you pass away, for up to 24 months.
