Summary

The purpose of this research is to test the safety and effectiveness of the investigational drug ruxolitinib when it is combined with standard of care treatment (radiation therapy and temozolomide) for the treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Half the people in the study will be assigned to take the study drug ruxolitinib in addition to the standard of care temozolomide and radiation therapy and the other half will be assigned to the standard of care temozolomide and radiation therapy only. This assignment will be randomized in a 1-to-1 ratio, like the flip of a coin.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Ruxolitinib

"During Radiation Therapy" phase: 20 mg ruxolitinib will be self-administered orally (PO) twice every day (BID), starting on Day 1 for 6 weeks. Then there will be a 4-week break after radiotherapy is complete. "Maintenance" phase: Occurs thirty days (4 weeks) after receiving the last dose of radiotherapy. Ruxolitinib 20 mg will be self-administered PO BID, starting on Day 1 in consecutive 28-day cycles. Either phase: Aside from the 30-day break, ruxolitinib will be continued daily until disease progression or treatment intolerance. Ruxolitinib should be administered at approximately the same time each day. The tablets should be swallowed whole with water and should not be opened, broken, or chewed. The dose may be reduced in the case of certain adverse events.

DRUG

Temozolomide

"During Radiation Therapy" phase: 75 mg/m\^2 will be self-administered PO once every day, starting on Day 1, for 6 weeks. Then there will be a 4-week break after radiotherapy is complete. "Maintenance" phase: Occurs thirty days (4 weeks) after receiving the last dose of radiotherapy. Temozolomide 150-200 mg/m\^2 will be self-administered PO BID, starting on Day 1 to Day 5 of each cycle for six cycles. Either phase: The dose may be reduced in the case of certain adverse events.

RADIATION

Radiation Therapy

Radiation will be administered every weekday (Monday to Friday) in 2 Gy fractions for 30 fractions during a 6-week period (60 Gy total).
