About this trial
REMIND is a single-center feasibility study testing maintenance radiotherapy in adult patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma.
Participants will be consented before starting standard-of-care concurrent temozolomide and radiotherapy. After enrollment, participants will enter an observational lead-in phase while receiving standard-of-care therapy off study. Approximately 4 weeks after temozolomide, participants will receive one study-specific 2 Gy fraction of maintenance radiotherapy directed at the post-operative cavity and areas of prior enhancing disease.
The study will evaluate the safety and feasibility of delivering maintenance radiotherapy. Blood samples will also be collected before and after maintenance radiotherapy to descriptively compare myeloid-derived suppressor cell frequency.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Histologically confirmed diagnosis of glioblastoma according to WHO classification criteria for which standard-of-care surgical resection, concurrent temozolomide and radiotherapy, and adjuvant temozolomide is planned
Planning to receive standard-of-care radiotherapy with a biological effective dose of 60 Gy or less in 30 fractions
Age 18 years or older at the time of consent
Karnofsky performance status of 70 or higher
Disqualifiers
Pregnant or breastfeeding
Presence of brain stem involvement within the planning target volume from the initial course of standard-of-care radiotherapy
Prior radiation therapy to the brain
Contraindication to MRI or CT

Treatments tested in this trial
Maintenance Radiotherapy
RadiationMaintenance radiotherapy consists of a single 2 Gy fraction of radiation delivered approximately 4 weeks after standard-of-care temozolomide. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy will be directed at the post-operative cavity and areas where previous enhancing disease was identified after surgical resection.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Number and Percentage of Participants Who Complete the Single 2 Gy Fraction of Maintenance Radiotherapy
Feasibility will be assessed by the number and percentage of enrolled participants who complete the study-specific single 2 Gy fraction of maintenance radiotherapy.
Occurrence of CTCAE Grade 4 or 5 Toxicities Related to the Single 2 Gy Maintenance Radiotherapy Fraction
Safety will be assessed by the occurrence of CTCAE Grade 4 or 5 toxicities related to the experimental single 2 Gy maintenance radiotherapy fraction.
Secondary outcomes
Change in Peripheral Blood Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell Frequency
Within 2 weeks before maintenance radiotherapy and within 1 week after maintenance radiotherapy
Other outcomes
Percentage Change in Peripheral Blood Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell Frequency After Maintenance Radiotherapy
The frequency of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in peripheral blood will be measured within 2 weeks before maintenance radiotherapy and within 1 week after maintenance radiotherapy. The percentage change from pre-maintenance radiotherapy will be recorded for each participant.
