Circulating Biomarkers for Glioma
Brief description of study
Subjects will be recruited from the Radiation Oncology and Neurosurgery practices at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. The treating radiation oncologist will determine if the patient is a potential research candidate and has the capacity to consent.
The goal of this study is to collect and analyze blood samples from glioma cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy to determine the reliability of a circulating tumor cell assay. We will also be looking at the genetic mutations of the circulating glioma cells and comparing them to available tumor pathology.
