Brain cancer trial tests double attack on recurrent tumors

NCT ID NCT04221503

Summary

This study is testing whether combining a pill called niraparib with a wearable device that delivers Tumor-Treating Fields (TTFields) can help control recurrent glioblastoma, a very aggressive brain cancer. The goal is to see if the device makes the tumor cells more vulnerable to the drug, potentially stopping or slowing their growth. The trial is for adults whose glioblastoma has returned after prior radiation treatment.
