Brain Cancer Trial, Recruiting

Written by an AI model from ClinicalTrials.gov eligibility criteria and checked on a sample basis. Please confirm against the original criteria.

Who might be able to join this trial:

• People who have been clinically diagnosed with a brain tumor located near areas of the brain involved in language, movement, or major brain communication networks.
• People whose general health and ability to carry out daily activities meets a certain minimum level, as measured by a standard medical scoring tool called the Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS), with a score of 70 or higher.
• People whose pre-surgery MRI scan shows that the tumor is close to important nerve pathways in the brain, such as those involved in movement or language.
• People who do not have any other neurological disease or condition that could itself cause problems with brain function.
• People who have not previously received treatment, such as radiotherapy, for a brain tumor in the same area of the brain.
• People whose tumor is not extensively attached to multiple critical brain network areas.
• People who are already planning to have surgery to remove the brain tumor and who are able to provide written agreement to take part (or whose legal representative can do so on their behalf).

Who may not be able to join:

• People whose brain lesion is suspected or confirmed to be something other than a tumor (for example, a non-cancerous or inflammatory condition).
• People who have tumors in more than one separate location in the brain.
• People whose medical evaluation records are incomplete.
• People, or their legal representatives, who choose to withdraw from the study for any reason.
• People who are pregnant, breastfeeding, possibly pregnant, or planning to become pregnant.
