Registering a new trial?

To achieve prospective registration, we recommend submitting your trial for registration at the same time as ethics submission.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - temozolomide
Treatment: Other - DNA methylation analysis
Other interventions - laboratory biomarker analysis
Treatment: Surgery - adjuvant therapy
Treatment: Surgery - quality-of-life assessment
Treatment: Other - radiation therapy

Active comparator: Radiotherapy (RT) alone - radiation therapy alone

Active comparator: RT & Concurrent CT - Radiotherapy and concurrent temozolomide chemotherapy

Active comparator: RT + Adjuvant CT - Radiotherapy plus adjuvant temozolomide chemotherapy

Active comparator: RT & Concurrent CT + adjuvant CT - Radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy plus adjuvant temozolomide chemotherapy


Treatment: Drugs: temozolomide
Patients randomized to concomitant temozolomide will receive temozolomide continuously at a daily dose of 75 mg/m² during radiotherapy.

Treatment: Other: DNA methylation analysis
O6-Methylguanine-DNA Methyltransferase (MGMT) methylation status is used for stratification at randomization.

Other interventions: laboratory biomarker analysis
Prognostic factor analyses

Treatment: Surgery: adjuvant therapy
Patients randomized to adjuvant temozolomide will start adjuvant temozolomide after a 4 week resting period after the end of radiotherapy.

Treatment: Surgery: quality-of-life assessment
Quality of Life analysis will also be used to assess neurological deterioration free progression

Treatment: Other: radiation therapy
Radiotherapy will consist of a conventionally fractionated regimen for 6.5 weeks in a once daily schedule
