Recording brain waves during awake surgery for brain tumors
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at brain wave recordings taken during awake brain surgery for diffuse glioma. The goal is to better understand and protect important brain functions during tumor removal. If you are already scheduled for awake brain surgery with ECoG monitoring, you may be able to take part.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a type of brain tumor called a diffuse glioma, and your doctor plans to remove it with surgery.
- Your surgery is planned to be done while you are awake (awake surgery) so doctors can map important brain functions.
- Your surgery will include special brain wave monitoring (electrocorticography, or ECoG) during the procedure.
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are covered by a French health insurance plan (social security, CMU, or equivalent).
- You are not currently being treated for an infection, are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and have no other condition that could affect your safety.

This study uses special brain recordings during an awake surgical procedure to understand how the brain learns new movement and sensation skills. If you can comfortably take part in a simple task during surgery, you may help researchers learn how learning works in humans.
This study tests a new way to monitor brain activity during surgery to remove brain tumors. It may help doctors better protect important brain functions during the operation.
This study tests whether using brain wave (EEG) monitoring during brain tumor surgery can help protect your thinking and memory. It might help you keep more of your cognitive function after surgery.
This trial is testing a new tool called the CIPHER System during brain surgery for people with a newly diagnosed glioma. It looks at how well the tool works and how safe it is when used during the procedure.
