    AbstractThere are new scientific data concerning the treatment of patients with glioblastoma multiforme with concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide following surgery and radiotherapy. Patients have an improved survival rate, especially if they also have a methylated promoter of the methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) gene. It is advisable to consider treating young patients with primary glioblastoma multiforme who are in good condition with concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide. Efficacy of temozolomide in recurrent glioblastoma multiforme is limited.
