Multiple therapies can be used alone or in combination, depending on the patient’s condition and the specifics of the tumor. A multifaceted approach is crucial in treating brain tumors to ensure comprehensive care.
\n\nSurgery (resection of glioblastoma) is often the first line of attack, aiming to remove as much of the glioblastoma as possible to decrease tumor burden and improve the effectiveness of other treatments.
\n\n\tAdvancements in brain tumor surgery techniques, such as minimally invasive methods, allow for the removal of certain tumors without the need for opening the skull.
\n\tLaser ablation (minimally Invasive). For tumors in deep or delicate areas, laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is a safer alternative. Centers offering this technique create a small opening and use laser heat to destroy cancer cells. It’s ideal for patients who are not candidates for open surgery.
\n\tRadiation therapy (Gamma Knife Radiosurgery) offers targeted radiation treatment that focuses high-intensity gamma rays on the tumor with precision, sparing healthy brain tissue.
\n\tChemotherapy involves the use of drugs to target and kill cancer cells. These drugs can be administered in various forms, including orally, intravenously, or implanted biodegradable wafers. Standard drugs like temozolomide (TMZ) are often combined with other therapies.
\n\tTargeted therapy uses drugs or other substances to identify and attack specific cancer cells without harming normal cells. Drugs like bevacizumab (Avastin) target specific cancer growth factors, slowing tumor progression.
\n\t👉Around 41.3% of patients live beyond the first year after diagnosis, and 4.1% reach five years, showing the impact of advances in treatment.
\n\nImmunotherapy employs the body’s immune system to fight the tumor, enhancing its ability to detect and destroy cancer cells.
\n\tTumor treating fields (TTFields) use electric fields tuned to specific frequencies to disrupt cancer cell division in glioblastoma.
\n\tBrachytherapy. Internal radiation therapy is where radioactive materials are placed directly in or near the tumor.
\n\t✅The treatment plan often involves a multidisciplinary approach, which includes a team of specialists from various fields.
\n\n👉The best-known treatment approach since 2005 combines surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ).
\n\nThe plan starts with an accurate diagnosis through imaging tests like MRI, functional MRI, or genetic testing.
