Study Summary

This trial is looking at a new way to collect information from people with brain tumors during surgery, in order to learn more about the safety and feasibility of the new method, as well as to gather data about potential biomarkers for brain tumors.

Who is the study for?
Adults (18+) with certain brain tumors or epilepsy needing surgery can join. They should be in fair to good health otherwise, as measured by ECOG performance status. Surgery must be planned at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, and participants need to consent to the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing if microdialysis catheters can be used during neurosurgery to collect biomarkers from brain tissue. This could help doctors better understand and treat central nervous system malignancies.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves standard surgical procedures with an additional step of microdialysis, potential side effects may include typical surgical risks such as infection, bleeding, or reactions related to anesthesia.
