Background Glioblastoma, the most common primary brain tumorin adults, is usually rapidly fatal. The current standard ofcare for newly diagnosed glioblastoma is surgical resectionto the extent feasible, followed by adjuvant radiotherapy. Inthis trial we compared radiotherapy alone with radiotherapyplus temozolomide, given concomitantly with and after radiotherapy,in terms of efficacy and safety.
Methods Patients with newly diagnosed, histologically confirmedglioblastoma were randomly assigned to receive radiotherapyalone (fractionated focal irradiation in daily fractions of2 Gy given 5 days per week for 6 weeks, for a total of 60 Gy)or radiotherapy plus continuous daily temozolomide (75 mg persquare meter of body-surface area per day, 7 days per week fromthe first to the last day of radiotherapy), followed by sixcycles of adjuvant temozolomide (150 to 200 mg per square meterfor 5 days during each 28-day cycle). The primary end pointwas overall survival.
Results A total of 573 patients from 85 centers underwent randomization.The median age was 56 years, and 84 percent of patients hadundergone debulking surgery. At a median follow-up of 28 months,the median survival was 14.6 months with radiotherapy plus temozolomideand 12.1 months with radiotherapy alone. The unadjusted hazardratio for death in the radiotherapy-plus-temozolomide groupwas 0.63 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.52 to 0.75; P<0.001by the log-rank test). The two-year survival rate was 26.5 percentwith radiotherapy plus temozolomide and 10.4 percent with radiotherapyalone. Concomitant treatment with radiotherapy plus temozolomideresulted in grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxic effects in 7 percentof patients.
Conclusions The addition of temozolomide to radiotherapy fornewly diagnosed glioblastoma resulted in a clinically meaningfuland statistically significant survival benefit with minimaladditional toxicity.
