New brain cancer strategy: wake up immune system before surgery

NCT ID NCT05423210

Summary

This small, early-stage study is testing a new approach for treating glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer. Researchers want to see if giving a short course of targeted radiation along with an immunotherapy drug (atezolizumab) *before* surgery can help the patient's own immune system better recognize and attack the tumor. After this initial treatment, patients will have standard surgery and then continue receiving the immunotherapy drug as part of their ongoing care.
