Introduction: Glioblastoma (GBM) treatment starts in most patients with surgery, either resection surgery or biopsy, to reach a histology diagnose. Multidisciplinar team, including specialists in brain tumors diagnose and treatment, must make an individualize assessment to get the maximum benefit of the available treatments.
Material And Methods: Experts in each GBM treatment field have briefly described it based in their experience and the reviewed of the literature.
Results: Each area has been summarized and the consensus of the brain tumor group has been included at the end.
Conclusions: GBM are aggressive tumors with a dismal prognosis, however accurate treatments can improve overall survival and quality of life. Neurosurgeons must know treatment options, indications and risks to participate actively in the decision making and to offer the best surgical treatment in every case.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly invasive and malignant primary intracranial tumor originating from glial cells, and it is associated with an extremely poor clinical prognosis. The hypoxic conditions within GBM promote various tumor cell processes such as angiogenesis, proliferation, migration, invasion, and drug resistance. A key aspect of tumor adaptation to the hypoxic environment and the promotion of malignant behaviors is the regulation of HIF-1α signaling pathways.

Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive adult glioma (16-month median survival). Its immunosuppressive microenvironment limits the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs).
Objectives: To assess the effects of the ICIs antibodies anti-programmed cell death 1 (anti-PD-1) and anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1) in treating adults with diffuse glioma.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, characterized by resistance to conventional therapies and poor survival. Ferroptosis, a form of regulated cell death driven by lipid peroxidation, has recently emerged as a promising therapeutic target for GBM treatment. However, there are currently no non-invasive imaging techniques to monitor the engagement of pro-ferroptotic compounds with their respective targets, or to monitor the efficacy of ferroptosis-based therapies.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor, and has a low survival rate and a poor prognosis. Intensive studies of pathogenic mechanisms are essential for exploring therapeutic targets for GBM. In this study, the roles played by interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15), HECT, RCC1-containing protein 5 (HERC5), and SERPINE1 mRNA binding protein 1 (SERBP1) in regulating GBM cell stemness were investigated.
