Glioblastoma is a type of brain cancer. It’s the most common type of malignant brain tumor among adults, making up about half of all brain tumors in the U.S. Each year, about 12,000 people are diagnosed with glioblastoma.It's usually very aggressive, which means it can grow fast and ...
But it turned out to be a different cancer."I was quite surprised to find out that it was glioblastoma ... a very serious type of brain tumor," LaPook added. "The problem with glioblastoma is at the time that it is discovered, there are almost always microscopic cells that have spread...
As Scott Pelley reported for "60 Minutes" in 2015, Friedman is working on a trial at Duke University for patients whose cancer has returned. A genetically-engineered form of the polio virus is inserted directly into the brain tumor to, in effect, jump-start the immune system. Breakthrough s...
In addition, proteinase activity is required for the formation of new blood vessels within the tumor. Levels of the proteinase matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) are highly increased in gliomas. In this stu...

Systemic Brain Tumor Delivery of Synthetic Protein Nanoparticles for Glioblastoma TherapyGlioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the predominant and most aggressive form of brain cancer, has witnessed very little clinical progress over the last decades, in parts, due to the absence of effective drug delivery ...
The mode of action for oncolytic viruses (OVs) in cancer treatment is thought to depend on a direct initial cytotoxic effect against infected tumor cells and subsequent activation of immune cell responses directed against the neoplasm. To study both of t
