Systemic and Local Levels of Lidocaine During Surgery for the Removal of Glioblastoma

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Glioblastoma

In brief

This clinical trial measures the amount and effect of lidocaine injected into patients with glioblastoma while they are undergoing surgical removal of their brain tumors. Lidocaine is a substance used to relieve pain by blocking signals at the nerve endings in skin. Information gained from this study may help researchers come up with new treatments to help patients with glioblastomas in the future.
