Description

Glioblastoma, the most aggressive brain tumor, shrugs off radiation in many patients. Xiaohong Hu and six co-authors tested a drug called PXD101 against it in 2024, in cells and in animals. The drug loosens the packing of DNA, and it can cross from blood into brain, a step many drugs fail.

Treated tumor cells grew and invaded less, died more readily, and grew more sensitive to radiation. The drug worked by raising the level of a stress protein, GADD45A, which then switched on a death linked pathway. In animals, the drug paired with radiation slowed tumor growth clearly. The authors propose both the drug and the protein as leads for new care.
