Niraparib with temozolomide in adults with newly-diagnosed GBM (Glioblastoma) - Clinical Trial
¿Cuál es el Propósito de este estudio?
We are doing this study to find out if an experimental drug called niraparib is a safe and effective option for people with newly diagnosed GBM. We want to compare how well it works to temozolomide, which is an approved drug that is commonly used to treat GBM.
Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma (GBM)
¿Quién puede participar en el Estudio?
Adults ages 18+ who:
- Are newly diagnosed with GBM
- Have a specific change in the O6-methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT) gene (called methylation)
- Have an unmethylated MGMT promoter region

¿Qué Implica?
If you choose to join this study, you will get a random assignment (like a coin flip) to either take the study drug or take temozolomide.
If you are assigned to take the study drug, you will continue your regimen for as long as your cancer does not worsen. If you are assigned to take temozolomide, your treatment period will last for up to 8 months.
No matter your group assignment, you will visit our clinic for radiotherapy sessions during your study drug regimen.
