Official title
Treatment of Adults with Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma with Partial Brain Radiation Therapy Plus Temozolomide and Chloroquine Followed by Tumor Treating Fields Plus Temozolomide and Chloroquine -- a Pilot Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This trial studies the side effects of partial brain radiation therapy, temozolomide, chloroquine, and tumor treating fields therapy for the treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Chemotherapy drugs, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Chloroquine is normally used to treat strains of malaria and prior preclinical and clinical data suggests that it may increase the efficacy of both radiation and tumor treating fields therapy. Tumor treating fields therapy uses electric fields tuned to specific frequencies to disrupt cell division, inhibiting tumor growth and potentially causing cancer cells to die. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of partial brain radiation therapy, temozolomide, chloroquine, and tumor treating fields therapy in patients with gliobastoma
