Patients with provision of signed and dated, written informed consent prior to any study specific procedures, sampling and analyses. 5. Patients (both males and females) should employ adequate contraceptive measures which should be maintained during the whole duration of the trial. 6. Additional eligibility criteria include: age between 18 and 70; Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) score of 70 or higher; adequate kidney, liver, bone marrow, and cardiac function; total serum bilirubin level and liver- function values; isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 (IDH1/2) mutational status; MGMT methylation status assessment.

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients should not enter the study if any of the following exclusion criteria apply: 1. Treatment with any of the following:

• - Any other chemotherapy, immunotherapy or anticancer agents within 4 weeks before enrollment in the study.

• - Any investigational agents or study drugs from a previous clinical study within 30 days before the first dose of study treatment.

Chlorpromazine (CPZ, Largactil, Thorazine) is a potent antagonist of the dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2) and has been effectively and safely employed for over half a century in the treatment of psychiatric disorders. CPZ displays a series of remarkable bio-molecular effects in cancer cells, as inhibition of cell growth, nuclear aberrations, inhibition of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase/mammilian target of rapamycin (PI3K/mTOR) axis, induction of cytotoxic autophagy, inhibition of glutamate and DRD2 receptors.

Arms

Experimental: Standard protocol plus chlorpromazine (CPZ)

Combination of chlorpromazine to the standard treatment with temozolomide in the sole adjuvant phase of the standard protocol.Chlorpromazine will be administered at a dose of 50 mg/day concomitantly with the adjuvant treatment with temozolomide (TMZ)

Interventions

Drug: - Chlorpromazine Pill

The experimental treatment involves the combination of chlorpromazine to the standard treatment with temozolomide solely in the adjuvant phase (after radio-chemotherapy, temozolomide for 5 days every 28, at a dose of 150-200 mg/mq for 6 cycles) of the Stupp protocol. Chlorpromazine will be administered at a dose of 50 mg/day concomitantly with the adjuvant treatment with temozolomide
