Is Interstitial Chemotherapy with Carmustine (BCNU) Wafers Effective against Local Recurrence of Glioblastoma? A Pharmacokinetic Study by Measurement of BCNU in the Tumor Resection Cavity

The effectiveness of carmustine (BCNU) wafers on local recurrence of glioblastoma (GBM) remains contentious. We investigated the accumulating high-dose effects of BCNU released from the wafers on the survival of GBM patients by measuring BCNU concentration in the resection cavity of GBM over time. B...
