First seen Apr 20, 2026 · Last updated Jun 07, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study tested a new treatment for glioblastoma, a fast-growing brain cancer that had come back after initial therapy. The treatment combined a precise, high-dose radiation technique with an immunotherapy drug called durvalumab, which helps the immune system attack cancer cells. The goal was to see if this combination was safe and could help patients live longer. The trial involved 108 adults with recurrent glioblastoma.
