Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The objectives of the trial are: To assess safety, tolerability and activity of nelfinavir given neo-adjuvant and concomitant to chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide in patients with a newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme. To describe the possible effect of nelfinavir on functional imaging To describe the activity of nelfinavir in vivo on blocking the AKT pathway.
