MRI in High-Grade Glioma Patients Undergoing Chemoradiation (NCT05212272)

A Feasibility Study of Interim PET-MRI in High-grade Glioma Patients Undergoing Chemoradiation

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿง  Behavioral & Psychological Program Sponsor: Wake Forest University Health Sciences

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The purpose of this research study is to see if investigators can predict how brain functioning changes after radiation treatment based on PET scans and blood tests. Most participants experience at least mild decreases in their memory or attention after radiation therapy. Investigators hope that PET scans, optional lumbar puncture, and blood tests might help investigators predict who might have larger changes in their brain function after radiation.
