In case who diagnosed as glioblastoma after the first resection (partly resection or biopsy), all of the following conditions must be fulfilled: (i) Resection of more than 90% of contrast region will be performed at the institutions in JCOG study groups of the Brain Tumor Study Group within 3 weeks from the first resection. (ii) Preoperative head contrast MRI before first resection is available. (iii) Negative of immunostaining of IDH1 if performed. (4) The tumor exists in the cerebrum and diencephalon on preoperative head contrast MRI and no evidence of tumors in the cerebellum, brain stem, optic nerve, olfactory nerve, and pituitary gland. (5) Preoperative head contrast MRI revealed no multiple legions or dissemination. (6) Aged 20 to 75 years old at registration. (7) ECOG performance status (PS) of 0, 1, 2, or 3 due to neurological signs caused by the tumor. (8) No prior chemotherapy or head radiation therapy for any malignant diseases (9) Sufficient organ function. (i) Neutrophil count >= 1,500 /mm3 (ii) Hemoglobin >= 8.0 mg/dl (iii) Platelet count >= 100,000 /mm3 (iv) AST =< 120 U/L (v) ALT =< 120 U/L (vi) Cr =< 1.5 mg/dL (10) Written informed consent.
