What the trial team says

This prospective, interventional, monocentric study will aim at investigating the relationship between pesticide exposure and the treatment response of patients with GBM. The study will be conducted on a population of 120 participants aged over 18 years, diagnosed with IDH wild-type GBM, and who will receive the treatment for GBM (by, where applicable, concomitant radiochemotherapy or chemotherapy in combination with targeted therapy). The recruitment period will last 2 years. After eligibility is confirmed, study assessments will be performed at the baseline visit (i.e. before GBM treatment initiation). The study specific assessments consist of: biological sample collection (urine, hair and blood) and completion of a self-reported questionnaire. The questionnaire will entail 2 parts: i- the main part delivered to all participants, ii- an optional part delivered only when a professional pesticide exposure is suspected (based on answers provided in part 1). Then, the patient will be followed up for about 3 years (or 6 timepoints) for data collection. During this period, data collection will take place twice a year according to the routine visits at the investigator site for clinical benefit assessment to document tumor response, survival status and further anti-cancer treatments if applicable. This data is routinely captured in patient's medical records per SOC and will not require study specific visits. The follow-up period might differ between patients as it will depend on the routine visit schedule. This schedule will be set up for each patient specifically according to their SOC.
