Title:
Characterizing benefit from temozolomide in MGMT promoter unmethylated and methylated glioblastoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Published date:
10/30/2020
Excerpt:
The median OS for patients with unmethylated GBM treated with RT/TMZ pooled from 5 phase III studies (N = 655) was 14.11 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 13.18–15.04) with a median PFS of 4.99 months (95% CI, 4.25–5.72)...TMZ should be withheld for patients with unmethylated GBM...

Title:
Bortezomib sensitization of recurrent glioblastoma with unmethylated MGMT promoter to temozolomide, a phase II study (NCT03643549)
Published date:
05/26/2022
Excerpt:
Patients with glioblastoma harboring active MGMT enzyme have median survival of 12.7 months, compared to 21.7 months for patients with the MGMT gene promoter silenced by methylation.

Title:
Final data from the phase 2a single-arm trial of SurVaxM for newly diagnosed glioblastoma
Published date:
05/26/2022
Excerpt:
Maintenance doses of SurVaxM-Montanide plus sargramostim were thereafter administered every 12 weeks. Adjuvant TMZ was administered for at least 6 cycles, after at least the first dose of SurVaxM and beginning no sooner than 28 days after completion of chemoradiation. SurVaxM was immunogenic and produced survivin-specific CD8+ T-cells and antibody (IgG) titers in both methylated and unmethylated MGMT pts and both groups showed clinical benefit. SurVaxM represents a promising therapy for nGBM, including for those pts with unmethylated MGMT genes.
