Radiotherapy Versus Radiotherapy Combined With Temozolomide in High-risk Low-grade Gliomas After Surgery

Phase 2
Recruiting
Conditions
Low-grade Glioma
Interventions
Radiation: intensity modulated radiation therapy
Registration Number
NCT04316039
Lead Sponsor
West China Hospital
Brief Summary

It has been reported that radiation therapy followed by PCV chemotherapy (procarbazine, lomustine and vincristine) could improve progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with high-risk WHO grade 2 gliomas after surgery. However, procarbazine is not available in China. In clinical practice, Chinese doctors often use radiotherapy combined with temozolomide to treat these patients, though large-scale prospective studies are lacking. This trial aims to confirm whether RT combined with temozolomide can improve PFS and OS in patients with high-risk low-grade gliomas.
