Abstract:
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor and remains highly lethal due to its invasive nature and resistance to treatment. Its development of oxygen-poor regions reduces the effectiveness of radiation, limiting current therapeutic outcomes. We propose a new treatment strategy that delivers oxygen to tumor cells to enhance their sensitivity to radiation and improve patient prognosis.
