Description:
Collection of biological samples
Arm group label:
Biological sample collection
Summary:
In patients operated for glioblastoma, glioma stem-like cell lines will be obtained from
tumor tissue, and IPSCs from skin fibroblasts or PBMCs. Brain organoids will be generated
from IPSCs and co-cultured with IPSCs to study brain invasion and ciliogenesis. 3D genome
architecture of glioma stem-like cells will be investigated. Gene modulation and
pharmacologic strategies to inhibit invasion and restore ciliogenesis will be explored.
Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
o be enrolled in the study patients must:
1. Have a radiological diagnosis of supratentorial glioblastoma, or
2. Have a radiological diagnosis of first recurrence of a primary supratentorial
glioblastoma (for which a formal histopathologic diagnosis of glioblastoma had made
at first surgery), according with RANO criteria (Wen, 2010);
3. Be a candidate to neurosurgery for glioblastoma;
4. Be of an age of 18 years or above;
5. Provide written informed consent for participation to the study.
Exclusion criteria
To be enrolled in the study patients must not:
1. Have not enough pathological material removed at surgery available both for
mandatory routine histopathological diagnosis and for the present study, as judged
by the Principal Investigator;
2. Have not a definitive pathological diagnosis of a primary supratentorial
glioblastoma, according with 2016 WHO classification.
