Brain Activity Changes in Glioma Patients During Treatment
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tracks how brain activity and connections change in patients with gliomas (brain tumors) as they receive treatment. Researchers use special brain scans to understand how treatment affects the brain's function, which may help improve care for glioma patients in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diffuse glioma (a type of brain tumor, grades 2–4)
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You can have brain MRI scans (a detailed imaging test) without metal implants or other contraindications
- You do not have cancer that has spread to your brain from elsewhere in your body
- You have had a baseline brain scan and cognitive (thinking/memory) assessment before starting treatment
- You are well enough to participate in testing (KPS score of 60 or higher, or study team confirms you can participate)

This study looks at how brain tumors look on MRI and what biopsy tissue shows, using samples taken during planned surgery. It may help improve understanding of tumor biology and future treatment planning.
This study uses specialized imaging (MEG and MRI) to map electrical activity patterns inside newly diagnosed brain tumors (gliomas) before surgery. Understanding these patterns may help doctors plan safer, more effective tumor removal.
This early-stage study measures electrical brain activity during brain tumor surgery to see if it can predict tumor return or progression. You may be offered the additional measurements while your surgeon removes a suspected or known high-grade glioma.
This trial uses a special MRI scan to study the genetics of gliomas (a type of brain tumor). It may help doctors better understand your tumor and choose the right treatment. You can join if you have a suspected or confirmed low- or high-grade glioma that still has a measurable tumor after surgery.
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.
This study uses a special MRI scan where you watch a movie to help doctors map important functions in your brain before surgery. The goal is to improve surgical planning and safety for patients with brain tumors.
