Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a single-arm pilot study that will recruit 12 patients with newly diagnosed Glioblastoma, a malignant brain tumor with a poor prognosis. Patients will be treated with fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) for 2 weeks, in addition to two doses of Atezolizumab (Tecentriq), an FDA approved PD- L1 inhibitor drug, 840 mg IV, at the beginning and at the end of the two-week time period, concomitantly with FSRT. After this initial two weeks treatment the patients will undergo craniotomy and maximal safe resection as per normal care for a GB. After surgery patients will follow the normal care for glioblastoma in addition to Atezolizumab 840 mg IV q2 weeks for the duration of adjuvant treatment.

Atezolizumab 840mg IV every 2 weeks Fractionated Stereotactic Radiotherapy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of participants who progress/relapse after surgical resection [2 years]

    Assess the efficacy of atezolizumab in combination with fractionated stereotactic radiation therapy in the neoadjuvant setting for resectable glioblastoma multiforme

  2. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 [30 days after the last dose of atezolizumab]

    Assess the safety of atezolizumab in combination with fractionated stereotactic radiation therapy in the neoadjuvant setting for resectable glioblastoma multiforme
