First seen May 09, 2026 · Last updated Jun 17, 2026 · Updated 8 times

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.
