Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Adverse Events [2 Years]
Characterize adverse events experienced in glioblastoma subjects undergoing LITT using the NeuroBlate System. Adverse events will be collected based on subject reports and subject examination/testing.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Progression-Free Survival Rate [2 Years]
To describe progression-free survival rate in subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastomas treated with the NeuroBlate System
- Overall Survival [2 Years]
To describe/estimate the overall survival of subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastomas treated with LITT using the NeuroBlate System
- Changes in Quality of Life [2 Years]
Characterize the changes in quality of life in subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who are undergoing LITT using the NeuroBlate System via Quality of Life and neurocognitive assessment tools
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Relevant Inclusion Criteria:
-
Biopsy proven supratentorial GBM that has not undergone previous surgical resection, radiation and/or chemotherapy
-

-
The patient must be ≥18 years of age
-
KPS > 70

-
Uncontrolled cardiovascular conditions of hypertension (systolic >180 mm Hg), angina pectoris, or cardiac dysrhythmia; or recent history of intracranial hemorrhage
-
Serious infection, immunosuppression or concurrent medical condition (chronic or acute in nature) that may prevent safe participation or ability to meet follow-up requirements
-
Pregnancy, or planning to become pregnant
-
Patients whose physical dimensions cannot be accommodated in the MRI scanner or patients with contraindications to MRI imaging such as pacemakers, non-compatible aneurysm clips, shrapnel and other internal ferromagnetic objects
-
Patients with multiple or multifocal GBM
