Key LARGO (Glioblastoma Multiforme and Grade 4 Astrocytoma) - Clinical Trial
What is the Purpose of this Study?
We are doing this study to learn more about what causes glioblastoma (GBM), a type of brain cancer, and the factors that affect GBM patients' quality of life.
This research will help us to understand why some people get GBM, including how their genes and health history may contribute to tumor development and progression.
