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 uses a special brain scanner (like an MRI, but measuring brain waves) to look at electrical patterns inside gliomas before surgery. The goal is to better understand these tumours, which may help doctors improve treatment in the future.
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 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 study tests whether watching a movie during an MRI scan can help doctors map brain function more comfortably before surgery for a brain tumor (glioma). If you are already scheduled for a clinical fMRI, this extra scan might replace the need to do repetitive tasks during the scan.
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 special MRI techniques to better understand how a high-grade brain tumor spreads into nearby brain tissue. The information may help doctors plan safer and more effective tumor removal.
