Abstract

Cancer is one of the most prevalent diseases globally and is the major cause of death. An abstract on cancer therapy usually encapsulates the salient features of oncology research, breakthroughs, or therapeutic approaches. It summarizes the goals, approaches, findings, and recommendations of research or reviews pertaining to cancer care. Topics include immunotherapy, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and new treatments may be included in the abstract. It functions as a succinct synopsis that offers insights into current developments, obstacles, and trends targeted at enhancing patient outcomes in the fight against cancer. The treatment of brain tumors including glioblastoma multiformes (GBM’s) remains a challenge. The main option is still surgery to remove the bulk of tumor and adjuvant treatments for the infiltrating parts. The blood brain barrier (BBB), however, restricts the access of chemotherapeutic agents to the tumor.

Keywords: Cancer therapy, Chemotherapy, Targeted therapy, glioblastoma multiformes.
