Anti-MDM2 Anticorps (A99874)

Glioblastoma is an aggressive, incurable brain cancer with poor five-year survival rates of around 13% despite multimodal treatment with surgery, DNA-damaging chemoradiotherapy and the recent addition of Tumour Treating Fields (TTFields). As such, there is an urgent need to improve our current understanding of cellular responses to TTFields using more clinically and surgically relevant models, which reflect the profound spatial heterogeneity within glioblastoma, and leverage these biological insights to inform the rational design of more effective therapeutic strategies incorporating TTFields. We have recently reported the use of preclinical TTFields using the inovitro^TM system within 2D glioma stem-like cell (GSC) models and demonstrated significant cytotoxicity enhancement when co-applied with a range of therapeutically approved and preclinical DNA damage response inhibitors (DDRi) and chemoradiotherapy. Here we report the development and optimisation of preclinical TTFields delivery within more clinically relevant 3D scaffold-based primary GSC models of spatial heterogeneity, and highlight some initial enhancement of TTFields potency with temozolomide and clinically approved PARP inhibitors (PARPi). These studies, therefore, represent an important platform for further preclinical assessment of TTFields-based therapeutic strategies within clinically relevant 3D GSC models, aimed towards accelerating clinical trial implementation and the ultimate goal of improving the persistently dire survival rates for these patients.
