SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Congress of Neurological Surgeons systematic review and evidence-based guidelines update on the role of radiation therapy in the management of progressive and recurrent glioblastoma in adults.
Journal of Neuro-oncology 2022 June
TARGET POPULATION: These recommendations apply to adult patients (18 years of age and above) with progressive/recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (pGBM) after first line combined multimodality treatment.
QUESTION: Can re-irradiation (by using conventional radiotherapy, fractionated radiosurgery, or single fraction radiosurgery) be used in patients with pGBM after the first adjuvant combined multimodality treatment with radiation and chemotherapy?
RECOMMENDATION: Level III: When the target tumor is amenable for additional radiation, re-irradiation is recommended as it provides improved local tumor control, as measured by best imaging response. Such re-irradiation can take the form of conventional fractionation radiotherapy, fractionated radiosurgery, or single fraction radiosurgery.
LEVEL III: Re-Irradiation is recommended in order to maintain or improve a patient's neurological status and quality of life prior to any further tumor progression.
