New ultrasound 'Helmet' trial aims to zap brain cancer

NCT ID NCT07225621

Summary

This study is testing if a new, non-invasive ultrasound device, used with a light-sensitive drug, can help control a fast-growing brain cancer called glioblastoma. After standard surgery and chemo-radiation, about 100 patients will be randomly assigned to receive either the real ultrasound treatment with the active drug or a placebo 'sham' procedure, while both groups continue standard chemotherapy. The main goal is to see if this combination can delay the cancer from growing back.
