Research Abstract |
This study evaluated the efficacy of combined-modality treatments using CED of ACNU with systemic administration of temozolomide. CED of ACNU plus systemic administration of temozolomide significantly enhanced survival rate compared with each treatment alone (versus CED : p<0.001, versus systemic temozolomide : p<0.05). Multimodality treatment using CED of ACNU and systemic chemotherapy with temozolomide is a promising strategy for treatment of brain tumors.
