Scientists hunt for early warning signs in brain cancer Patients' blood

NCT ID NCT00083512

Summary

This study aims to find out if measuring certain proteins in the blood and urine of patients with a serious brain tumor (glioblastoma) can help predict if the cancer will come back within a year after radiation treatment. Researchers will collect samples from about 200 adults before, during, and after their standard radiation therapy. The goal is to gather information that could lead to better tests for monitoring patients in the future.
