Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMaximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of DSF (Dose-escalation Phase Only)Estimated to be 2 years and 28 weeks
* The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of DSF is defined as the dose level at which 20% of the cohort experience dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) within 18 weeks from start of RT (or 12 weeks from the end of RT if there is a delay in RT). MTD is assessed from the first dose of DSF in combination with TMZ and RT; patients will not be assessed for DLT during the pre-surgery period when they are receiving the lead-in doses of DSF. * A DLT is defined as a clinically significant adverse event or abnormal laboratory value assessed as unrelated to disease progression, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medications/TMZ which occurs within 18 weeks following the first dose of DSF with RT+TMZ (corresponding to approximately 6 weeks during RT and 12 weeks after RT)

PrimaryKaplan-Meier Estimate of Overall Survival (Dose-expansion Phase Only)2 years
PrimaryKaplan-Meier Estimate of Overall Survival (Dose-expansion Phase Only)3 years
PrimaryMean Overall Survival (Dose-expansion Phase Only)Through completion of follow-up (up to 5 years)
SecondaryToxicity of DSF When Given Concurrently With Radiation Therapy and Temozolomide as Measured by the Grade and Frequency of Grade 2 or Greater Adverse Events Related to DSFThrough completion of DSF treatment (up to 38 weeks)The descriptions and grading scales found in the revised NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 will be utilized for all toxicity reporting.
SecondaryIntratumor and Plasma Concentration of DSF Metabolite (Ditiocarb-copper Complex)At the time of surgery (day 4)Will be determined using mass spectrometer
SecondaryMean Progression-free Survival (PFS)Through completion of follow-up (up to 5 years)Will be determined from the first day of RT to the time of tumor progression or death, whichever occurs first. Tumor progression will be determined using the RANO criteria.
OtherRate of Pseudo-progression (PsP)Through completion of follow-up (up to 5 years)-Pseudoprogression is defined as a transient increase of tumor after chemoradiotherapy that subsequently stabilizes without a change of therapy
