Photodynamic therapy of supratentorial gliomas

Abstract

The  results  of  treatment  of  patients  with  malignant  gliomas  remain  unsatisfactory,  despite  modern possibilities in the diagnosis and treatment based on molecular genetic data. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a method with pathogenetic antitumor mechanisms that differ from radiation therapy and chemotherapy and allows to increase the radicalness of the surgical intervention.

PURPOSE  OF  THE   STUDY.  demonstrate the possibilities of photodynamic therapy of malignant glial tumors using chlorin e6.

MATERIALS AND METHODS .  A total of 161 patients with a glial tumor of supratentorial localization, a high degree of tumor anaplasia according to Grade (III–IV), who were treated at the N.N. prof. A.  L.  Polenov. 80 — study group (with photodynamic therapy), 81 — control group (without photodynamic therapy).

RESULTS .  The use of photodynamic therapy as part of the complex therapy of gliomas of the brain can increase the median survival of patients with Grade III gliomas up to 40.4±7.4 months (control group — 23.4±3.9 months), for patients with Grade  IV gliomas up to 21.3±5.1 months (control group — 13.7±3.7 months) (p=0.0003); and the value of the relapse-free period for patients with Grade  III gliomas up to — 22.5±3.79 months (control group — 16.1±3.22 months) (p=0.0002); for patients with Grade IV gliomas up to — 11.4±2.49 months (control group — 8.2±2.13 months) (p=0.0001).

CONCLUSION.  PDT can be considered a safe and effective method to increase the radicalness of the operation and improve long-term results of treatment in patients with malignant gliomas.
