Abstract
We describe the institutional guidelines of a major tertiary cancer center with regard to using hypofractionated radiation regimens to treat glioblastoma as a measure to minimize exposure to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) while not sacrificing clinical outcomes. Our guidelines review level one evidence of various hypofractionated regimens, and recommend a multidisciplinary approach while balancing the risk of morbidity and mortality among individuals at high risk for severe illness from COVID-19 infection. We also briefly outline strategies our department is taking in mitigating risk among our cancer patients undergoing radiation.
