Summary

This study is for people aged 65 and older with a type of brain cancer called glioblastoma that has a specific marker (unmethylated MGMT) making standard treatment less effective. Researchers are testing a different way of giving the chemotherapy drug temozolomide—daily instead of the usual schedule—to see if it helps patients live longer. About 118 participants will be enrolled to track survival and side effects.
