Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary brain cancer in adults representing approximately 50% of brain tumours.

Key Points: 
  • Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary brain cancer in adults representing approximately 50% of brain tumours.
  • ONJCRI is leading the FIG Study with an Australian consortium1 and has secured over $3 million in research grant funding from the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF), Cure Brain Cancer Foundation and MRFF-Australian Brain Cancer Mission.
  • Telix funding will specifically support an observational study (registry) which will collect data demonstrating the value of FET-PET imaging in brain cancer patients.
  • This is a more functional imaging technique compared to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the current standard imaging tool, and could potentially provide a powerful imaging biomarker for the management of brain cancer and improve survival rates.
