Brain cancer imaging study aims to predict treatment success
NCT ID NCT03297125
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether advanced MRI scans can predict how well Optune therapy works in people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. Researchers will compare standard and advanced MRI in 60 participants to see which better forecasts survival at six months and one year. The goal is to improve treatment planning by identifying who is most likely to benefit from Optune.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors use MRI scans to predict which patients will benefit from Optune therapy, personalizing treatment for glioblastoma.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to changes in clinical practice, and results may not apply to all patients.
