Phase III Trial of Temozolomide/Lomustine (TMZ/LOM) Combination Therapy vs. Standard TMZ Therapy for Newly Diagnosed MGMT Promoter Methylated Glioblastoma (IDHwt) Patients +/- Tumor Treating Fields (Optune)
Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is notoriously difficult to treat, with current therapies often extending life by only a few months. The standard treatment involves surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy with Temozolomide (TMZ). The efficacy of TMZ, however, is significantly enhanced when the tumor's o6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) gene is methylated. Recent studies, such as the NOA-09 trial, have suggested that adding Lomustine (LOM) to TMZ could improve outcomes for patients with this specific tumor profile. Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that the addition of LOM to the TMZ regimen will lead to significantly improved survival rates among patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who have a methylated MGMT promoter compared to those receiving only TMZ. Treatment Plans: The study will randomly assign participants to two groups: - Control Group: Standard treatment with TMZ during and after radiation therapy. - Experimental Group: TMZ combined with LOM, starting on the first day of radiation therapy. Outcome Measures: The primary outcome measure will be survival. Other outcomes will include progression-free survival (time from randomization until tumor progression or death), safety profiles (adverse effects of the treatments), and quality of life measures as well as neurocognitive outcomes.

A Phase 1 Adaptive Dose Escalation With Dose Expansion Study of Triapine in Combination With Temozolomide (TMZ) for Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of triapine in combination with temozolomide in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Triapine inhibits an enzyme responsible for producing molecules required for the production of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which may inhibit tumor cell growth. Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's DNA and may kill tumor cells and slow down or stop tumor growth. Giving triapine in combination with temozolomide may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

A Phase 3, Open-label, Randomized 2-arm Study Comparing the Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Niraparib With Temozolomide in Adult Participants With Newly-diagnosed, MGMT Unmethylated Glioblastoma
The goal of this Phase 3 clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of niraparib versus temozolomide (TMZ) in adult participants with newly-diagnosed, MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does niraparib improve progression-free survival (PFS) compared to TMZ? Does niraparib improve overall survival (OS) compared to TMZ? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment arms: niraparib or TMZ. - study drug (Niraparib) or - comparator drug (Temozolomide - which is the standard approved treatment for MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma). The study medication will be taken daily while receiving standard of care radiation therapy (RT) for 6-7 weeks. Participants may continue to take the niraparib or TMZ adjuvantly as long as the cancer does not get worse or completion of 6 cycles of treatment (TMZ). A total of 450 participants will be enrolled in the study. Participants' tasks will include: - Complete study visits as scheduled - Complete a diary to record study medication

GlobAl Psychological and Psychiatric prOfile in Glioblastoma and Head and Neck Cancer paTients
Approximately 30% of cancer patients may experience psychopathological disorders. The most common psychopathological disorders in cancer patients are mood disorders, anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, and suicidal ideation. Among depressive disorders, mixed depression, with the simultaneous presence of symptoms of both depressive and manic polarity, is associated to higher levels of chronicity, functional impairment and suicidality. These disorders can also be worsened by loneliness and demoralization. Patients with head and neck cancer (H&N-C) and Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) have high psychological and sometimes psychiatric comorbidity probably due to the severity, poor prognosis of these cancers and harsh treatment toxicities. The most important protective factor for psychopathology is psychological resilience, which is "the capacity of a person to protect themselves and their mental health when facing life adversities," such as a GBM or H&N-C diagnosis. Resilience is influenced by the affective temperament, which refers to basic personality traits related to behavioral and emotional reactivity to environmental stimuli. It is believed to be biologically determined and relatively stable throughout life. To date, the literature does not clarify the role of resilience and temperament in mediating the psychological profile of cancer patients. Furthermore, extensive profiling of the psychological and psychiatric profile of these patients at such a critical and pivotal moment in their journey is currently lacking in the literature. Aim of this study is to evaluate global psychological and psychiatric profile of patients affected by GBM and H&N-C and the eventual fluctuation over time during RT course. Conducting an early and accurate screening for potential psychopathological issues will give the opportunity to avoid factors that could: worsen patient compliance, lead to suicidal risk, and increase hospitalizations. The results obtained will be utilized for planning precocious psychological or psychiatric take-in-charge aimed at promoting psychological well-being of H&N-C and GBM patients.

Sub-lobectomy for IDH Wild-type and TERT Promoter Mutant Glioblastoma: A Prospective, Interventional, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial
Glioblastoma is recognized as the most common and aggressive form of primary malignant brain tumor, with treatment options that are limited and prognosis that is extremely poor, showing median progression-free survival of 12 months and median overall survival of less than 18 months. Surgical resection plays a critical role in the treatment, with the extent of resection significantly impacting patient outcomes. Historical approaches to surgical resection have evolved, moving from radical strategies to more conservative ones that aim to preserve normal brain function while removing the tumor as completely as possible. Recent studies have suggested that increasing the extent of surgical resection, particularly along the T2 FLAIR border rather than the traditional T1-enhanced border, can significantly improve patient prognosis. There is, however, a lack of consensus on the optimal surgical approach, and the heterogeneity of tumors presents challenges in standardizing surgical strategies. Extended resection has been shown to prolong survival, and novel intraoperative molecular diagnostics have emerged to improve accuracy in tumor classification and prognosis. Building on these advancements, a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial is proposed to evaluate the efficacy of sub-lobectomy in treating IDH wild-type/TERTp-mutant glioblastoma, aiming to improve evidence levels and establish standardized surgical practices for this devastating disease.
