Journal ArticleDOI

Phase II study of 6-thioguanine, procarbazine, dibromodulcitol, lomustine, and vincristine chemotherapy with radiotherapy for treating malignant glioma in children.

TL;DR: The combination of TPDCV chemotherapy and radiotherapy appears to be active and at least as good as published reports using radiation therapy alone, while the results for children with anaplastic astrocytoma appeared better than most reports.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using genomics to guide treatment for glioblastoma.

TL;DR: As technology continues to improve, exome and RNA sequencing will play a role in the design of clinical trials, classification of patient subgroups and identification of rare mutations that can be targeted by small-molecule inhibitors and biologic agents.
Journal Article

Autologous tumor derived gp96 evokes a tumor specific immune response in recurrent glioma patients that correlates with clinical response to therapy

TL;DR: The immunomintoring results of a Phase I investigator initiated clinical trial in which recurrent high grade glioma patients were treated with autologous gp-96 demonstrated a significant increase in innate immunity when comparing final vaccination to pre-vaccination activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in the treatment of central nervous system tumors

TL;DR: Temozolomide is now the new standard of care in combination with radiation therapy for newly diagnosed glioblastomas, and there remains no current role for neo-adjuvant therapy.
