Summary

This early-phase trial tests the safety and best dose of mycophenolate mofetil, a drug usually used to prevent organ rejection, when added to standard chemotherapy and radiation for glioblastoma. About 60 adults with newly diagnosed or recurrent glioblastoma will take part. The goal is to see if this combination can make chemotherapy work better and help control the disease.
