Summary
This study looks at whether using chemotherapy alone is as good as combining it with radiation for elderly and frail patients with a type of brain cancer called glioblastoma. About 107 participants aged 65 and older with limited mobility will be randomly assigned to one of two treatments. The goal is to find a treatment that works well but causes fewer side effects and is easier to manage.
