Utilization of hypofractionated radiation therapy in older glioblastoma patients

ConclusionsThe majority of older GBM patients do not undergo hypofractionated radiation. High 90-day mortality in both groups suggests that hypofractionation may improve the survival-to-treatment time ratio and positively impact patient quality of life. Hypofractionated radiation regimens for GBM should be discussed with older patients and considered for inclusion in efforts to improve the quality and value of cancer care.
