Sponsor's own description
PreOperative Brain Irradiation in Glioblastoma (POBIG) is a phase I study that will test the safety and feasibility of a single fraction of preoperative radiotherapy in patients with a new radiological diagnosis of glioblastoma (GBM). After the single fraction of radiotherapy, patients will receive standard treatment. The standard treatment consists of resection of the tumor followed by (chemo)radiation (i.e. radiotherapy +/- daily temozolomide (75mg/m2) for 6 weeks (60Gy/30fr) or for 3 weeks (40Gy/15fr)).
