    Arm 1

    Arm Type

    Experimental

    Arm Label

    enzyme-inducing antiseizure drug

    Arm Description

    A single-arm study with all subjects assigned to one treatment (radiation + temozolomide + talampanel) but subjects receiving concomitant anti-seizure drugs which could increase study drug elimination had a slightly modified dose/schedule of study drug. The primary endpoint is analyzed as a single group.
