Scientists from the University of Geneva have developed CAR-T cells targeting the PTPRZ1 marker on glioblastoma cells, a promising step toward more effective treatments. These engineered immune cells showed the ability to attack both marked and unmarked tumor cells without harming healthy cells, ...
Generally, Surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy as existing treatments for GBM ultimately increase the patient’s survival by only a few months [7]. New approaches in glioblastoma control The limitations of the effectiveness of existing therapies for GBM and the existence of mechanisms that ...
but even after surgery, there's usually cancerous cells left behind because of the way the tumors grow in the brain. That's part of why the mortality rate for glioblastoma is so high, according to Dr. William Breen, a radiation oncologist with the Mayo ...
"Research into this area is very low for several reasons. First, glioblastoma is a rare cancer so does not affect large swathes of the population. It also has extremely low survival rates and there is a long-standing history of failed studies in this area. Unfortunately, pharmaceutical compani...
has been linked totumor coexpression of EGFRvIII and PTEN.9 The identification of this genetic and phenotypicrelationship is an important step in the development of a tumor-specific treatment for GBM,according to Friedman."Whether these GBM tumors are EGRFvIII-positive or PTEN wild type--the latt...
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most common type of brain cancer, is notoriously difficult to treat. Its tumor cells mutate rapidly, pushing into deep areas of the brain that can be difficult to reach with surgery and other treatments.

Advanced-disease treatments Recent chemotherapy trials in the advanced/recurrent disease setting have not shown significant outcome improvements over prior single-agent chemotherapy studies. For example, a phase 3 randomized trial of second-line ixabepilone, an anti-tubulin epothilone, versus paclitaxel or...
Unfortunately, available Chokα inhibitors also have toxic side-effect and are not approved for use in patients. Hopefully, this research might encourage screening for safe drugs interfering with these pathways and contribute the development of new treatments for AITL....
Poor treatment outcomes have been partially attributed to the intratumor heterogeneity and evolution, which helps the tumor resist treatments. However, defining these diverse characteristics throughout the entire glioblastoma tumor, as well as all other types of solid tumors, has remained a challenge as...
