EEG-guided brain tumor surgery to preserve thinking skills
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using EEG monitoring during surgery can help protect memory, attention, and other thinking skills for people with brain tumors (gliomas). If you are scheduled for brain tumor surgery and can complete simple thinking tests, this study may be an option for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have a brain tumor called a glioma and are scheduled for surgery.
- You are awake and can understand what the study involves.
- You are able to complete short tests of memory and thinking.
- You do not have severe problems with your heart, lungs, liver, or kidneys.

This study records brain activity during awake surgery for people with glioma. It aims to better understand how the brain works around the tumor, which may help improve surgical safety.
This trial tests a combination of brain stimulation (rTMS) and cognitive strategy training to help improve memory and thinking in people with glioma. If you have a stable brain tumor and notice problems with focus or memory, you may be able to join.
This study tests a special brain-wave monitor (called processed EEG) during surgery to remove a brain tumor. The monitor helps the anesthesiologist keep you at the right level of sleep, which may improve safety and recovery.
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.
This trial tests whether a special brain stimulation technique (nTMS) before surgery can help the brain reorganize around a tumor. It's for people with aggressive brain tumors near movement areas, who still have good strength.
This study uses special recording sensors during brain tumor surgery to map the brain areas that control movement and speech. It may help the surgical team protect these key functions while removing the tumor.
