Das Glioblastoma multiforme ist der häufigste und aggressivste primäre bösartige Tumor des zentralen Nervensystems. Trotz der Fortschritte, die bei der Therapie vieler solider Tumoren erzielt wurden, hat sich der Goldstandard der multimodalen Behandlung des Glioblastoma multiforme seit vielen Jahren nicht geändert. Die Ergebnisse aus klinischen Studien sind nach wie vor enttäuschend. Daher ist die Behandlung dieses Tumors eine Herausforderung für Neurochirurgen, Neuroonkologen und Strahlenonkologen. In diesem Beitrag wurden Risikofaktoren, prognostische/vorhersagende Faktoren und neue Richtungen der innovativen therapeutischen Optionen für das Glioblastoma multiforme diskutiert. Darüber hinaus wurden ergänzende Strategien und die Behandlung älterer Patienten analysiert.
