Treatment Intensification With Temozolomide in Adults With a Glioblastoma

Study Purpose

Due to conflicting data on the optimal moment to start TMZ chemotherapy and the impact of prolongation of the adjuvant phase with TMZ, the ANOCEF (Association des Neuro-Oncologues d'Expression Francophone) group proposes this randomized trial comparing an intensified arm (early TMZ and extended adjuvant TMZ until toxicity, progression or patient refusal) versus the classical EORTC regimen as control (RT and concomitant TMZ started 4-6 weeks after surgery followed by a number of adjuvant TMZ cycles strictly limited to 6) for primary GBM adult patients.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.
