A new study reports researchers have discovered a way to enhance the effects of immunotherapy to treat glioblastoma. Read More
Researchers report our gender can determine longevity and response to treatment for glioblastoma brain cancer. The study reports male survival is determined by genes that control cell division, where as female survival is often determine by genes that regulate the ability of cancer cells to migrate to different brain areas.

Teriflunomide, a drug commonly used to treat multiple sclerosis, shows promise for the treatment of glioblastoma when coupled with targeted cancer therapies. Read More
Scientists have long believed that glioblastoma multiforme, the most aggressive type of primary brain tumor, begins in glial cells that make up supportive tissue in the brain or in neural stem cells. Researchers found that the tumors can originate from other types of differentiated cells in the nervous system, including cortical neurons. Read More
