DISEASE, TUMOR PROGRESSION
A total of 12 patients with recurrent GBM were recruited. The median follow-up was 16 (IQR, 14-18.5) months. This gene therapy protocol was safe and well tolerated. During the study period, eleven (91.7%) patients showed tumor progression, and nine (75.0%) died. The median overall survival (OS) was 16.0 months (95% CI 14.3–17.7) and the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 11.0 months (95% CI 8.3–13.7). A total of 8 and 4 patients showed partial response and stable disease, respectively. Moreover, significant changes were observed in volumetric analysis, peripheral blood cell counts, and cytokine profile.
