Brief summary
This is a multi-center prospective phase 3 clinical trial to explore the efficacy and side effects of standard-dose photon radiation versus standard-dose proton radiation versus carbon ion boost plus standard proton radiation for newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The patients enrolled will be randomly allocated with 1:1:1 to three group: Control Group, standard-dose photon radiotherapy; Study Group A, standard-dose proton radiotherapy; Study Group B, standard-dose proton radiotherapy plus induction carbon-ion radiotherapy boost. The primary endpoint is overall survival (OS).
Detailed description
This multi-center prospective phase 3 clinical trial will enroll 369 patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Patients will be randomly allocated with 1:1:1 to three groups: Control Group, standard-dose photon radiotherapy (60 Gy); Study Group A, standard-dose proton radiotherapy (60 GyE); Study Group B, standard-dose proton radiotherapy (60 GyE) plus induction carbon-ion radiotherapy boost (15GyE/3F). All patients will receive concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide according to the Stupp protocol. The primary endpoint is overall survival (OS). The secondary endpoint is progression-free survival, side effect and quality life.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Survival | From the pathological confirmation to death, a median of 3 years. | The interval from randomization to death |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Progression-free Survival | From randomization to tumor progression, with a median of 3 years. | The interval from randomization to progression or death |
| Toxicities | From start to 12 months after completion of radiotherapy. | The scores of toxicities are based on CTCAE criteria, which refers to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events. |
| Recognitive Function | From initiation of radiotherapy to 12 months after completion of radiotherapy. | The assessment of recognitive function is based on MMSE criteria, which refers to Mini-Mental State Examination. |
| Life Quality | From initiation of radiotherapy to 12 months after completion of radiotherapy. | The assessment of life quality is based on ADL criteria, which refers to Activities of Daily Living. |
