Epidemiology of Glioblastoma Multiforme-Literature Review

Szymon Grochans et al.

Summary: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly aggressive malignancy with a median overall survival of approximately 15 months. This review analyzes the pathogenesis and epidemiological data of GBM, including age, gender, and tumor location. The data suggest that GBM is a higher-grade primary brain tumor and is significantly more common in men. Despite advancements in medicine, the risk of being diagnosed with glioma increases with age and median survival remains low. Additionally, the influence of stimulants, certain medications (such as NSAIDs), cell phone use, and exposure to heavy metals on GBM is difficult to determine clearly.

PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors in glioblastoma: clinical studies, challenges and potential

Tianrui Yang et al.

Summary: Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized tumor immunotherapy, but face challenges in the treatment of glioblastoma due to its unique immunosuppressive characteristics. Recent clinical studies are focusing on combination therapies involving standard treatments, targeted therapies, and other immunotherapies to improve outcomes for patients with GBM.

Immunosuppression in Gliomas via PD-1/PD-L1 Axis and Adenosine Pathway

Thamiris Becker Scheffel et al.

Summary: Glioblastoma is a highly malignant subtype of glioma, and the immune landscape within the tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in influencing therapy outcomes. The presence of multiple immunosuppression pathways, particularly the adenosine pathway, poses significant obstacles to immune-based cancer therapies and can contribute to treatment resistance. Research focusing on immune checkpoints and the adenosine pathway may provide insights into potential targets for improving tumor treatment strategies.

Immunotherapy for recurrent glioblastoma: practical insights and challenging prospects

Xin Wang et al.

Summary: For recurrent glioblastoma (rGB) patients, neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 therapy followed by surgery and adjuvant anti-PD-1 therapy can significantly improve overall survival. Additionally, tumor-specific peptide vaccination or CAR-T cell therapy has shown promise for treating rGB patients. Effective predictive biomarkers for clinical efficacy are needed, along with efforts to enhance T cell function through engineering techniques.

Sex-Specific Differences in Glioblastoma

Anna Carrano et al.

Summary: Sex differences exist in brain tumors, with males having higher incidence and worse outcomes in GBM compared to females. Estrogen plays a protective role in GBM, while upregulation of androgen receptors and testosterone may have detrimental effects. Hormones and the immune system play important roles in the GBM microenvironment.
