U.S., July 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07712770) titled 'Pilot Radioembolisation Clinical Trial Assessing Safety and Efficacy in Recurrent Glioma' on July 02.
Brief Summary: This study is testing a new way of treating brain tumours using tiny radioactive beads called SIR-Spheres(R) (90Y-labelled Resin Microspheres). These microspheres are placed into the blood vessels that feed the tumour. The treatment gives off radiation inside the tumour to try to stop it from growing.
This type of treatment is called Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT), Transarterial Radioembolisation (TARE), or radioembolisation. It is already an accepted treatment for patients with liver cancer. In this stu...
