New MRI scan to track glioblastoma growth during treatment
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study is testing a new type of MRI called APTw-CEST to see if it can better detect tumor progression in people with glioblastoma. It may help doctors monitor your tumor more accurately during radiation or chemoradiation therapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed or suspected glioblastoma (a type of brain tumor).
- You are scheduled to start radiation therapy or combined chemotherapy and radiation.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You can understand and sign a consent form.
- You will already be having standard MRI scans as part of your care.

This trial tests whether using advanced MRI scans before radiation therapy can help doctors target the tumor more precisely and possibly improve outcomes for people with glioblastoma. It aims to make radiation treatment more personalized.
This trial is testing a new way to find and remove glioblastoma brain tumors using a special MRI scan. It may help doctors remove more of the tumor safely during surgery.
This study is testing whether special MRI scans and blood tests can help tell the difference between true tumor growth (progression) and a treatment-related reaction called 'pseudoprogression' in people with glioblastoma. The goal is to make treatment decisions more accurate.
This study is testing whether using MRI scans can help doctors better plan radiotherapy for cancer patients. It involves having an MRI before your radiotherapy starts, and the results will be compared to your standard CT scan.
This trial tests a special MRI technique to help surgeons remove more of a glioblastoma brain tumor during surgery. The goal is to see if this approach helps people live longer.
This study uses two special types of MRI scans to better understand how far a high-grade brain tumor (aggressive brain cancer) has spread into surrounding brain tissue. The goal is to help doctors plan surgery or biopsy more precisely.
