Sponsor's own description

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well atezolizumab works in combination with temozolomide and radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy beams to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. It is not yet known how well atezolizumab works in combination with temozolomide and radiation therapy in treating patients with glioblastoma.
