摘要
Concurrent temozolomide (TMZ) and radiotherapy is the new standard of care for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. In 51 consecutive patients treated according to this regimen, 7 patients (14%) manifested surgically confirmed early necrosis without evidence of recurrent tumor. This observation suggests that daily TMZ may represent a potent radiosensitizing regimen.
