Summary

This study tests a shorter, more intense radiation schedule for people whose glioblastoma (a severe brain cancer) has returned after standard treatment.

The goal is to find the safest schedule that controls the tumor while limiting side effects. Participants will be followed for up to 5 years to track outcomes.
