Inclusion criteria

Relevant Inclusion Criteria: 1. Biopsy proven supratentorial GBM that has not undergone previous surgical resection, radiation and/or chemotherapy 2. Single enhancing lesion that is \>1 cm, but \< 4 cm in cross-sectional dimension, including thalamic tumor (≤ 3 cm) 3. The patient must be ≥18 years of age 4. KPS \> 70 5. Patients must have no concurrent malignancy except curatively treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix, breast, or bladder. Patients with prior malignancies must be disease-free for five years. 6. Stable cardiovascular, pulmonary health status Relevant

Exclusion criteria

1. Seizures occurrence or the requirement of escalation (or addition) of anti-epileptic drugs 2. Symptoms due to mass effect of the tumor including high intracranial pressure, marked edema or ≥5mm midline shift significant 3. Uncontrolled cardiovascular conditions of hypertension (systolic \>180 mm Hg), angina pectoris, or cardiac dysrhythmia; or recent history of intracranial hemorrhage 4. Serious infection, immunosuppression or concurrent medical condition (chronic or acute in nature) that may prevent safe participation or ability to meet follow-up requirements 5. Pregnancy, or planning to become pregnant 6. Patients whose physical dimensions cannot be accommodated in the MRI scanner or patients with contraindications to MRI imaging such as pacemakers, non-compatible aneurysm clips, shrapnel and other internal ferromagnetic objects 7. Patients with multiple or multifocal GBM

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Adverse Events2 YearsCharacterize adverse events experienced in glioblastoma subjects undergoing LITT using the NeuroBlate System. Adverse events will be collected based on subject reports and subject examination/testing.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression-Free Survival Rate2 YearsTo describe progression-free survival rate in subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastomas treated with the NeuroBlate System
Overall Survival2 YearsTo describe/estimate the overall survival of subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastomas treated with LITT using the NeuroBlate System
Changes in Quality of Life2 YearsCharacterize the changes in quality of life in subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who are undergoing LITT using the NeuroBlate System via Quality of Life and neurocognitive assessment tools
