Summary

This study tests a treatment plan for people whose brain tumors (gliomas) have come back after standard care. The approach uses laser heat to destroy tumor tissue, followed by a short course of focused radiation. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and can help control the tumor for longer. About 32 adults with recurrent gliomas will take part.
