Health authority | United States: Federal Government |
Study type | Observational |
RATIONALE: Gathering information over time from laboratory tests of patients with newly
diagnosed malignant supratentorial astrocytoma may help doctors learn more about the effect
of treatment on white blood cell count and the risk of infection.
PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying blood samples and risk of infection in patients
with newly diagnosed malignant supratentorial astrocytoma.
