Historically this may be contextualized in the fact that the medical and scientific communities have had a very elementary understanding of its intricate and complex pathophysiology. The last 10-15 years have yielded a number of studies that have elucidated much of the molecular and genetic complexities of GBM that underlie its pathogenesis. Excitingly, some of these discovered genetic mutations and molecular profiles in GBM have demonstrated value in prognostication and utility in predicting response to treatment. Despite this, however, treatment options for patients have remained somewhat limited. These treatment options are expected to expand with the availability of new data and with the transition of novel treatment modalities from animal to human studies. This paper will have a threefold objective: provide an overview of the traditional paradigm in understanding and treating GBM, describe recent discoveries in the molecular pathogenesis of GBM against this historical backdrop, and acquaint the reader with new treatment modalities that hold significant therapeutic potential for patients.展开更多
