What the film says

Read the transcript

This trial is for adults diagnosed with glioblastoma within two months who have not started chemotherapy or radiation. Patients need a performance score of at least seventy and English or Spanish literacy.

The idea: an eighteen-week ketogenic diet increases fat relative to protein and carbohydrate intake. Patients are randomized to this diet or standard dietary guidance, with dietitian support. Everyone receives standard cancer treatment. Ketone and glucose measurements track adherence; researchers test whether survival differs between groups.

This phase 2 study plans 170 patients. Jethro Hu leads at Cedars-Sinai; four US sites recruit.
