Etoposide Plus Cisplatin Compared With Temozolomide in Patients With Glioblastoma

January 12, 2023 updated by: Zhongnan Hospital

Etoposide Plus Cisplatin Compared With Temozolomide in Patients With Newly Diagnosed MGMT Promotor Unmethylated Glioblastoma

Temozolomide provided significant and clinically meaningful benefit in MGMT gene promoter methylation glioblastoma. However, in unmethylated patients, the effect of Temozolomide is limited. The aim of this study is to compare the effect of Etoposide plus Cisplatin and Temozolomide in patients with MGMT gene promoter unmethylation glioblastoma.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

60 Patients with glioblastoma were recruited for this study based on the following eligibility criteria: Age between 18 and 70, performance status of 0-1 (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status), histologically confirmed MGMT gene promoter unmethylation glioblastoma, no cerebrospinal fluid and distant metastatic disease. All patients had adequate hematologic, hepatic, and renal function. Patients younger than 18 years; patients with a prior (i.e. within 5 years) or synchronous malignancy, other than non-melanoma skin cancer; and those with significant comorbidities were excluded.

60 patients were randomly divided into two groups and compared the difference of efficacy between the two groups
