Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

Use of metformin is not associated with a reduced risk of glioma, but patients with specific glioma subtypes (i.e. WHO grade III glioma, possibly IDH-mutated gliomas, patients with a proneural signature) may be more responsive to treatment with metformin. Adding rationale combination partners may augment inhibitory effects of metformin on glioma. Future clinical trials should consider subtype specific responses and combinatorial approaches.
