- Ages 18 to 89 years
- All sexes
- Adult, Older adult
Study population: Patients between 18 years of age and 89 years of age will be eligible for this study.

Should a patient have a previous surgical removal of a meningioma, they will still be included. However, all patients having undergone previous radiation to the brain, for any reason, will not be included in the study.
Who may be able to join
- Subject has a meningioma associated with the frontal or temporal lobes
- Subject is scheduled to undergo open craniotomy or Endoscopic Endonasal surgery
- Subject is 18 years of age or older
- The subject must in the investigator's opinion, be psychosocially, mentally, and physically able to fully comply with this protocol including the required follow-up visits, the filling out of required forms, and have the ability to understand and give written informed consent
- Previous surgery will not exclude the patient as a new baseline cognitive evaluation will occur.
Who cannot join

About this study
Official title: Pre and Post-Operative Cognitive Status in Patients Undergoing Surgery for Resection of Meningioma Associated With the Frontal and Temporal Lobes
The purpose of this prospectively enrolling trial is to assess long-term cognitive outcomes of patients undergoing surgery for resection of a meningioma associated with the frontal and temporal lobes.
Read the detailed description
This study will look at patients who are undergoing resection of a skull based meningioma, located in the frontal or temporal lobe, via craniotomy or via endoscopic endonasal approach. The study will compare cognitive function at baseline, at six weeks postoperatively and at one year postoperatively. The cognitive testing being done at baseline will be a clinical care set of assessments done by the speech language pathology team and will include the RBANS tests, the MoCA, PROMIS-29, and NeuroQOL-Cognitive Functions.

- Being tested
- Long-term Cognitive testing

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

These patients will undergo their standard of care cognitive testing at baseline, six weeks post-operatively and one year post-operatively.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Meningioma Group | This group will include all patients in the study, regardless of location (frontal or temporal lobe) or surgical approach (endoscopic endonasal or craniotomy). Fifty patients will be included in the cohort Receives: Other: Long-term Cognitive testing |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall cognitive function
Cognitive function will be compared at baseline and at one year post-operatively.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Emma Kurtz, BS ((614) 685-4534, Emma.Kurtz@osumc.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Overall cognitive function (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 May 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
