Popis: Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor. Despite standard multimodality therapy, median overall survival remains poor with a 5-year survival rate of approximately 5% in most studies (range 4.7–13.0%). Strong interest in targeting IDH mutations has led to a variety of studies in both hematologic malignancies and solid tumors and to the approval of IDH inhibitors such as ivosidenib, an IDH1 inhibitor, in hematologic malignancies. Here, we present the first case study of a patient with a recurrent IDH1-mutant glioblastoma who experienced improved seizure control and radiographic stable disease for more than 4 years while treated with ivosidenib. Such findings support the further development of IDH inhibitors as single agents and/or in combination for the treatment of IDH-mutant glioma.
