About this trial
The FRONTIER Study is a prospective, interventional, single-arm, multi-center, study to assess the safety and technical feasibility of TheraSphere GBM in patients with recurrent GBM.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
The number of grade 3-5 non-hematological toxicities
The number of ≥ grade 3 CNS toxicities related to non-target embolization
Occurrence of symptomatic brain radiation necrosis requiring medical or surgical intervention and confirmed by pathology
The number of Grade 4 neutropenia events persisting for longer than 5 days
Secondary outcomes
Rate of any treatment-related adverse events and treatment-related serious adverse events (not including predefined Limiting Toxicities) from first patient enrolled through study completion.
Change in post-treatment neurological function as assessed by the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS).
The NIHSS is a tool used by healthcare providers to objectively quantify the impairment caused by a stroke. The NIHSS is composed of 11 items, each of which scores a specific ability between a 0 and 4. For each item, a score of 0 typically indicates normal function in that specific ability, while a higher score is indicative of some level of impairment.
Change in post-treatment neurological function as assessed by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS).
The mRS measures the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability on a scale from 0 (no symptoms at all) to 6 (death).
Technical Success/Feasibility of TheraSphere GBM - ability to deliver the projected radiation absorbed dose (+/- 20%) to the perfused volume for all patients treated with the device. Assessed from pre-screening through post-device delivery PET-CT/MRI.
