ABSTRACT
Eight patients to received Boron Neuron Capture Therapy (BNCT) were selected from 33 newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients (NCT(+) group). Serial 42 glioblastoma patients (NCT(-) group) were treated without BNCT. The median OS of the NCT(+) group and NCT (-) group were 24.4 months and 14.9 months. In the high risk patients (RPA class V), the median OS of the NCT(+) group tended to be better than that of NCT(-) group. 50% of BNCT patients were RPA class V.
