Serial magnetic resonance spectroscopy reveals a direct metabolic effect of cediranib in glioblastoma.
Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy is increasingly used in clinical studies of brain tumor to provide information about tissue metabolic profiles. In this study, we evaluated changes in the levels of metabolites predominant in recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (rGBM) to characterize the response of rGBM to antiangiogenic therapy. We examined 31 rGBM patients treated with daily doses of cedi...
متن کاملDifferentiation of active tumor from edematous regions of glioblastoma multiform tumor in diffusion MR images using heterogeneity analysis method
Background: Due to intrinsic heterogeneity of cellular distribution and density within diffusion weighted images (DWI) of glioblastoma multiform (GBM) tumors, differentiation of active tumor and peri-tumoral edema regions within these tumors is challenging. The aim of this paper was to take advantage of the differences among heterogeneity of active tumor and edematous regions within the gliobla...
متن کاملEffect of Foretinib on Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2) Expression in Glioblastoma
Background: The most malignant form of infiltrating astrocytoma, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), is one of the most aggressive human cancers. Foretinib diminished GBM cell invasion by downregulating the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2). The study aimed to examine the anti-tumor activity of foretinib and to test its effect on MMP2 expression in T98 cells. Materials and methods: T9...
متن کاملDetection of Glioblastoma Multiforme Tumor in Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Based on Support Vector Machine
Introduction: The brain tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue in the brain, which is one of the most important challenges in neurology. Brain tumors have different types. Some brain tumors are benign and some brain tumors are cancerous and malignant. Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest malignant brain tumor in adults. The average survival rate for peo...
متن کاملInfiltrative patterns of glioblastoma spread detected via diffusion MRI after treatment with cediranib.
To evaluate the role of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) imaging in assessing tumor cell infiltration after treatment with the antivascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agent, cediranib, we prospectively analyzed diffusion MRI scans from 30 patients participating in a Phase II trial of cediranib for recurrent glioblastoma. A patient-specific threshold was selected below which ADC v...
