Scientists map the immune battlefield inside deadly brain tumors
NCT ID NCT05267509
Summary
This study aims to better understand how aggressive brain tumors (gliomas) suppress a patient's immune system. Researchers will use special MRI and PET scans on 31 adult patients with confirmed malignant glioma to look for specific immune cells and iron deposits in the tumor. The goal is to learn more about the tumor's environment to help guide future treatments, but this study itself does not test a new therapy.
