Abstract
Glioblastoma is a malignant manifestation of a solid brain tumour with a very dismal prognosis due to an overall median survival of 14 months. The currently administered Standard treatment plan, the STUPP regimen, is not very effective in tackling this neoplasia. A major concern that affects the development of new drug formulations, specifically for Glioma, is the inherent sub-clonal heterogeneity, which includes the dynamic and intricate nature of the Tumour Microenvironment (TME). Targeting the cellular niche using personalized medication for glioma specifically gene therapy, seems to be promising, with most studies in preclinical models yielding optimistic results. This paper analyses the great headways made in glioma gene therapy in the last 10 years while looking into different therapeutic strategies. That said, certain challenges do plague the clinical use of gene therapy which have been highlighted in the hopes that future researchers will address these concerns and further propel gene therapy in its journey from the Lab to the bedside.
期刊介绍：
Current Gene Therapy is a bi-monthly peer-reviewed journal aimed at academic and industrial scientists with an interest in major topics concerning basic research and clinical applications of gene and cell therapy of diseases. Cell therapy manuscripts can also include application in diseases when cells have been genetically modified. Current Gene Therapy publishes full-length/mini reviews and original research on the latest developments in gene transfer and gene expression analysis, vector development, cellular genetic engineering, animal models and human clinical applications of gene and cell therapy for the treatment of diseases.
Current Gene Therapy publishes reviews and original research containing experimental data on gene and cell therapy. The journal also includes manuscripts on technological advances, ethical and regulatory considerations of gene and cell therapy. Reviews should provide the reader with a comprehensive assessment of any area of experimental biology applied to molecular medicine that is not only of significance within a particular field of gene therapy and cell therapy but also of interest to investigators in other fields. Authors are encouraged to provide their own assessment and vision for future advances. Reviews are also welcome on late breaking discoveries on which substantial literature has not yet been amassed. Such reviews provide a forum for sharply focused topics of recent experimental investigations in gene therapy primarily to make these results accessible to both clinical and basic researchers. Manuscripts containing experimental data should be original data, not previously published.
