摘要
Monitoring patient response to treatment is challenging for most cancers, but it is particularly difficult in glioblastoma multiform, the most common and aggressive form of malignant brain tumor. These tumors exhibit a high degree of heterogeneity which may not be reflected in a biopsy. To determine if the current standard of care is effective, glioma patients are monitored using MRI or CT scans, an effective but sometimes misleading approach due to the phenomenon of pseudoprogression. As such, there is incredible need for a minimally invasive "liquid biopsy" to assist in molecularly characterizing the tumors while also aiding in the identification of true progression in glioblastoma. This review details the status and potential impact for circulating tumor cells, extracellular vesicles, ctDNA, and ctRNA, putative circulating biomarkers found in the blood in glioblastoma patients. As mutation-based therapy becomes more prevalent in gliomas, blood-based analyses may offer a non-invasive method of identifying mutations. The ability to obtain serial "liquid biopsies" will provide unique opportunities to study the evolution of tumors and mechanisms of treatment resistance and monitor for mutational changes in response to therapy.
