简要总结
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, exploratory trial of temozolomide-based chemo-radiotherapy which compares two widely used established radiation schedules with either 40 Gy in 15 fractions or 25 Gy in 5 fractions with concurrent temozolomide for both schedules in patients with glioblastoma.
详细描述
All patients in the study will receive usual care with short-course radiotherapy (RT) and TMZ-chemo pills.
There are three phases of treatment in this study: the Chemo-radiation Phase, the Adjuvant Phase, and the Follow-Up Phase.
Twenty-eight or fewer days prior to starting the Chemo-radiation Phase, patients will have a baseline Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan.
Chemo-radiation Phase: In this, patient will be assigned to either a one week or a three week treatment group with radiation treatments given approximately 5 days a week as directed by the study doctor. During this time they will also take TMZ-chemo orally (by mouth) once a day on every evening including weekends starting the evening of the day that you start radiotherapy. Once radiation is completed, you will stop taking TMZ-chemo for approximately 4 weeks before going to the next phase.
Radiation therapy: Patients will be randomized between standard radiation treatment at UPMC Radiation Oncology facilities included in this protocol with either 40 Gy in 15 fractions or 25 Gy in 5 fractions, using 6 to 23 MV x-rays along with concurrent temozolomide chemotherapy for both treatment schedules.

研究组 & 干预措施
40 Gy in 15 fractions
Patients randomized to 40 Gy in 15 fractions will receive 75 mg/m^2 temozolomide per day for 15 days starting the first day of radiotherapy. This treatment will be followed by standard monthly 5 day cycles at 150 mg/m^2 for upto 1 year.
