The combination of gemcitabine, PI3K-Akt pathway inhibitors, and radiation in human glioma cell lines shows potential to enhance radiation sensitivity in aggressive brain tumors. Inhibiting the overactive PI3K-Akt pathway may increase tumor vulnerability to treatment. However, variability in responses among different glioma cell lines highlights the need for personalized approaches.
