NCT ID NCT07375992
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether virtual music therapy is practical and helpful for people recently diagnosed with glioblastoma, a serious brain cancer. Thirty-five participants will either join live music therapy sessions with a board-certified therapist or listen to curated playlists twice a week for 8 weeks. The main goal is to see if the therapy can be delivered successfully, not to measure effects on the tumor itself.
