NCT ID NCT06136611

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-phase study tests whether using Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) before surgery and radiation is safe for people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma, a fast-growing brain cancer. About 42 participants will wear a device that sends electric fields to the tumor, then undergo standard treatment. The main goal is to check for side effects like skin problems or wound healing issues.
