Journal ArticleDOI

Phase III trial of accelerated hyperfractionation with or without difluromethylornithine (DFMO) versus standard fractionated radiotherapy with or without DFMO for newly diagnosed patients with glioblastoma multiforme.

TL;DR: In this prospective Phase III study, no survival or PFS benefit was seen with accelerated hyperfractionated irradiation to 70.4 Gy, nor was any benefit seen with DFMO as a radiosensitizer, and standard fractionation to 59.4Gy remains the treatment of choice for newly diagnosed patients with glioblastoma multiforme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Primary gliosarcoma: key clinical and pathologic distinctions from glioblastoma with implications as a unique oncologic entity

TL;DR: Clinical and pathologic characteristics distinct to gliosarcoma compared to glioblastoma suggest that they may warrant specific treatment, separate from conventional GBM therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A preliminary study of the prognostic value of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging in gamma knife radiosurgery of recurrent malignant gliomas.

TL;DR: The pretreatment spectroscopic results provided information that was predictive of outcome for this patient pool, both in local control and global outcome, and this modality may have an important role in improving the selection, planning, and treatment process for glioma patients.
