• Patients with a high grade primary glial tumor (Astrocytoma grade 3; Glioblastoma; Anaplastic Oligodendroglioma)
• Patients scheduled to begin radiation and/or chemotherapy.
• Able to give informed consent to participate in the research.
• Enrolled in a social security plan or beneficiary of such a plan.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patient under guardianship or curatorship
