glioblastoma multiforme (gbm)

How is GBM Treated?

Treatment for GBM typically involves a multidisciplinary approach:
Surgery: The primary treatment to remove as much of the tumor as possible while minimizing damage to surrounding brain tissue.
Radiation Therapy: Often used post-surgery to target any remaining cancer cells.
Chemotherapy: Temozolomide is the most common chemotherapy drug used for GBM.
Targeted Therapy: Drugs that target specific genetic mutations within the tumor.
Clinical Trials: Experimental treatments that may provide additional options for patients.
