Brief Summary: This research study involves the study of granulocyte colony stimulating factor G-CSF in patients with MGMT-methylated glioblastoma multiforme GBM that are undergoing standard chemoradiation The study aims to evaluate G-CSFs effects on brain health and cognitive function

The name of the study drugs involved in this study are

G-CSF also called Filgrastim
Temozolomide TMZ a standard of care chemotherapy drug
Detailed Description: This is an open-label randomized phase II clinical study of using G-CSF in patients with newly diagnosed MGMT-methylated GBM treated with standard of care radiation with concurrent and adjuvant chemotherapy with temozolomide The investigators are testing whether G-CSF can reduce the negative side effects from radiation and chemotherapy on brain health The investigators are specifically testing the effects of G-CSF on brain structure cognitive function and general brain health and the safety and tolerability of G-CSF

Participants will be randomized in a 11 fashion to receive either standard of care chemoradiotherapy chemo-RT in combination with G-CSF or standard of care chemo-RT without G-CSF Treatment with G-CSF will be initiated after chemo-RT and be completed after 6 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy with Temozolomide

This study involves screening for eligibility standard of care radiation therapy and chemotherapy study treatment and study visits and follow-up visits Participants will be in the study for up to 24 months including 6 weeks of standard of care chemo-RT up to 7 months of G-CSF treatment depending on the number of additional chemotherapy cycles given as a part of standard care and 12 months of active follow-up visits after study treatment ends Long-term follow-up review of medical chart will occur for up to 5 years after enrollment Up to 40 participants will be enrolled in this study

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor G-CSF is a protein that stimulates bone marrow to produce stem cells and blood cells and release them into the bloodstream It is known to have anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties slowing or halting the loss of neurons G-CSF is also called Filgrastim and brand names include Granix Neupogen and Zarxio In addition to testing the safety and tolerability of G-CSF the researchers in this study are testing whether or not G-CSF can protect cells in the brain or enhance repair in the brain after chemoradiation and during chemotherapy The US Food and Drug Administration FDA has not approved G-CSF to support brain health and cognitive function However G-CSF has been approved for several decades and in patients with any type of cancer who develop neutropenia low white blood cell counts following chemotherapy including in patients with glioblastoma or in patients following stem cell transplantation with low white cell blood counts

The US Food and Drug Administration FDA has approved temozolomide as a treatment option for GBM Temozolomide is given as standard of care chemotherapy in this study

The radiation therapy used in this study is standard of care and approved by the US Food and Drug Administration FDA as a treatment option for GBM
