Pseudo-tumoral response of glioblastoma to anti-angiogenic treatment prematurely revealed by using Arterial spin-labeling (ASL) perfusion MRI and susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI)
Introduction: Angiogenesis plays a key-role in the growth and spread of solid tumors (1). This is especially true for Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), which is the most common and aggressive subtype of malignant glioma. New therapies involving anti-angiogenic agents may therefore now be part of the therapeutic protocol and they have been shown to dramatically improve response and survival in pati...
متن کاملGlioblastoma update: molecular biology, diagnosis, treatment, response assessment, and translational clinical trials
This is an exciting time in neuro-oncology. Discoveries elucidating the molecular mechanisms of oncogenesis and the molecular subtypes of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) have led to new diagnostic and classification schemes with more prognostic power than histology alone. Molecular profiling has become part of the standard neuropathological evaluation of GBM. Chemoradiation followed by adjuvant t...

متن کامل18F-FET MicroPET and MicroMRI for Anti-VEGF and Anti-PlGF Response Assessment in an Orthotopic Murine Model of Human Glioblastoma
BACKGROUND Conflicting data exist for anti-cancer effects of anti-placental growth factor (anti-PlGF) in combination with anti-VEGF. Still, this treatment combination has not been evaluated in intracranial glioblastoma (GBM) xenografts. In clinical studies, position emission tomography (PET) using the radiolabeled amino acid O-(2-18F-fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (18F-FET) and magnetic resonance imag...
متن کاملNeovascularization in Glioblastoma: Current Pitfall in Anti-angiogenic therapy.
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant primary brain tumor in adults. However, the survival of patients with GBM has been dismal after multi-disciplinary treatment with surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. In the efforts to improve clinical outcome, anti-angiogenic therapy with bevacizumab (Avastin) was introduced to inhibit vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mediated tumor ...
