Background Most glioblastoma tumours exhibit intrinsic phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway activation. Preclinical in vitro and in vivo models suggest that buparlisib (an oral pan-PI3K inhibitor) can have an effect on glioblastoma directly and ...

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia subsequent to temozolomide use in a 26-year-old man: a case report
Introduction We report the development of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a patient in whom temozolomide was used for the treatment of a brain tumor. Unlike that of other alkylating agents, the leukemogenic potential of temozolomide is considered to be ...

Metabolic activation of temozolomide measured in vivo using positron emission tomography
The purpose of this research was to quantitate and confirm the mechanism of in vivo metabolic activation of temozolomide. The secondary aims were to evaluate the tumor, normal tissue, and plasma pharmacokinetics of temozolomide in vivo, and to determine ...
