How do your colleagues incorporate the latest research and guideline recommendations into the clinical management of patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM)? With a median overall survival of only 15 months, GBM has long presented a challenge to the multidisciplinary management team. To maximize patient survival and QOL, clinicians who treat patients with this complex, diverse, fast-growing, and aggressive brain tumor must be prepared to quickly create personalized management plans that incorporate several new modalities, including tumor treating fields (TTFields) and efficacious systemic therapies, as well as clinical trial–based options. In a new event from PeerView and the American Brain Tumor Association (ABTA), an expert panel will review the latest efficacy and safety data on multimodal GBM treatments, along with a clear rationale for selecting guideline-recommended treatments and strategies for incorporating these advances into clinical practice. This case-based activity has been designed to help clinicians hone their informed decision-making skills and personalize management plans and for the benefit of patients with GBM in a variety of settings. Upon completion of this CE activity, participants will be able to: Describe the biologic rationale and latest clinical evidence for the use of guideline-recommended treatment strategies, such as TTFields and multikinase and TRK inhibitors, for patients with newly diagnosed and recurrent GBM, Identify patients with GBM who may benefit from participation in a clinical trial, and assess the applications of emerging approaches based on available data on their efficacy and safety, Develop personalized management plans for patients with newly diagnosed and recurrent GBM, including within the context of clinical trials, based on the current clinical evidence, guideline recommendations, and patient needs and preferences.
