Early trial seeks to stall aggressive brain tumors

NCT ID NCT05076513

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether the drug niraparib can effectively reach brain tumors and slow their growth. It involves 42 adults with newly diagnosed glioblastoma or a specific type of recurrent brain cancer. The trial first checks if the drug gets into the tumor during a short pre-surgery dose; patients showing a good response may then receive longer-term treatment with niraparib, combined with radiation for some.
