Therapeutic value

Current treatment options EMA: "At the time of designation, several medicines were authorised for the treatment of glioma in the EU. Treatments included surgery, radiotherapy (treatment with radiation), and chemotherapy (medicines to treat cancer) to improve survival. Patients also received treatments for the symptoms of glioma, including corticosteroids to reduce pressure within the skull and medicines to prevent seizures."
Therapeutic value No judgement
Substantiation EMA: "The sponsor has provided sufficient information to show that the medicine might be of significant benefit for patients with glioma because early studies showed a good response in patients whose disease came back after standard treatment. This assumption will need to be confirmed at the time of marketing authorisation, in order to maintain the orphan status."
