Summary

This study aimed to see if giving chemotherapy and radiation before surgery could help people with a fast-growing brain cancer called glioblastoma. Only 2 people took part before the study was stopped early. The main goals were to check safety and whether the treatment delayed the cancer from coming back, but there is not enough information to draw clear conclusions.
