Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical Trial Substantiates the Predictive Value of O-6-Methylguanine-DNA Methyltransferase Promoter Methylation in Glioblastoma Patients Treated with Temozolomide

TL;DR: The association of the epigenetic inactivation of the DNA repair gene MGMT with better outcome in this homogenous cohort may have important implications for the design of future trials and supports efforts to deplete MGMT by O-6-benzylguanine, a noncytotoxic substrate of this enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation of O6-Methylguanine Methyltransferase (MGMT) Promoter Methylation With Clinical Outcomes in Glioblastoma and Clinical Strategies to Modulate MGMT Activity

TL;DR: The data supporting MGMT as a major mechanism of chemotherapy resistance in malignant gliomas is reviewed and ongoing studies that are testing resistance-modulating strategies are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

MGMT promoter methylation in malignant gliomas: ready for personalized medicine?

TL;DR: The prognostic and predictive value of MGMT silencing is critically discussed, reviewing trials in which patients with different types of glioma were treated with various chemotherapy schedules, either upfront or at recurrence.
