Management of Elderly Patients with Glioblastoma.

Current neurology and neuroscience reports - 1 Apr 2017

Roth Patrick, Gramatzki Dorothee, Weller Michael

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Glioblastoma represents one of the major challenges in neurooncology and approximately half of the patients are 60 years or older. We summarize the particular situation of elderly glioblastoma patients with a focus on therapeutic considerations. RECENT FINDINGS: Favorable molecular markers such as mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1 or 2 genes are virtually absent in glioblastomas...
