A randomized multicentric phase II study of prolonged adjuvant Temozolomide or stop and go in glioblastoma patients : the PATSGO study. - the PATSGO study
- Conditions
- It is an open-label, randomised multicentric phase II study of prolonged adjuvant Temozolomide versus stop and go in glioblastoma patients. This study will include a total of 70 patients. The study will determine the time to progression under TMZ, overall survival,progression-free survival (PFS),quality of life of patients. It will also determine the toxicity,response rate of Temozolomide in rechallenge arm and if the MGMT gene status can predict a benefit of TMZ in terms of PFS.
