SPARE—Scalp Preservation and Radiation Plus Alternating Electric Tumor Treatment Field (NovoTTF, Optune) for Patients With Glioblastoma: A Pilot Study
This pilot early phase I trial studies the side effects of temozolomide, radiation therapy,
and tumor treating fields therapy using Novo tumor treatment fields (TTF)-200A device in
participants with glioblastoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in
different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping
them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy
x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. NovoTTF-200A device is a portable device that
produces alternating electrical fields that may disrupt growth of cancer cells. Giving
temozolomide, radiation therapy, and tumor treating fields therapy using NovoTTF-200A device
may work better in treating participants with glioblastoma.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the safety and toxicity of combination chemoradiotherapy with NovoTTF-200A
device (Optune) treatment in newly diagnosed glioblastoma.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the median progression-free survival of patients with newly diagnosed
glioblastoma treated with radiotherapy with concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide plus Optune.
II. To evaluate the median overall survival, 1-year overall survival, and event-free
survival.
III. Collect tumor O(6)-Methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) methylation status and
isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status.
IV. To evaluate the level of circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in glioblastoma
patient serum during treatment.
V. To evaluate the quality of life of patients treated with radiotherapy with concurrent and
adjuvant temozolomide plus Optune.
