Glioblastoma Multiforme
Treatment Using Ayurveda

http://parijatak.com/ayurvedic-treatment-for-glioblastoma-multiforme-at-central-india/
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest of
malignant primary brain tumors in adults and is one of the groups of tumors referred to
as gliomas.

Glioblastoma is a type of astrocytoma, cancer that forms from star-shaped cells in

the brain called astrocytes. In adults, this cancer usually starts in the cerebrum, the
largest part of your brain.

Classified as a grade IV astrocytoma, GBM develops from the lineage of star- shaped
gilal cells, called astrocytes, that support nerve cells.

GBM develops primarily in the cerebral hemisphere but can develop in other parts of the
brain, brainstem, or spinal cord.

Glioblastoma usually affects adults.

There is no reasonable method to keep the infection. Normally, treatment includes

medical procedure, after which chemotherapy and radiation treatment are utilized. The
pharmaceutical temozolomide is utilized as often as possible as a major aspect of
chemotherapy.

High measurements steroids might be utilized to help lessen swelling and diminishing
indications. It is misty in the case of endeavoring to evacuate all or just the greater part
of the malignancy is better.

In spite of most extreme treatment, disease generally repeats. The most widely
recognized length of survival following analysis is 12 to 15 months, with less than 3% to
5% of individuals surviving longer than five years. Without treatment, survival is
regularly three months.

It is the most widely recognized growth that starts inside the mind and the second most
normal cerebrum tumor, after meningioma. Around 3 for every 100,000 individuals build
up the malady a year. It frequently starts around 64 years old and happens more
ordinarily in guys than females. Immunotherapy is being considered in glioblastoma with
promising outcomes.

Characteristics of Glioblastoma Multiforme

Common symptoms include seizure, headaches, nausea and vomiting, memory

loss, changes to personality, mood or concentration; and localized neurological
problems.

The kind of symptoms produced depends more on the location of the tumor than on its
pathological properties. The tumor can start producing symptoms quickly, but
occasionally is an asymptomatic condition until it reaches an enormous size.

http://parijatak.com/ayurvedic-treatment-for-glioblastoma-multiforme-at-central-india/
1. Can be composed of several different cell types.
2. Can develop directly or evolve from lower grade astrocytoma or oligodendroglioma
3. Most common in older individuals and more common in men than women
4. Less common in children

Causes:
The cause is unknown, but research is pointing substantially towards genetic mutations

Symptoms of Glioblastoma Multiforme

Symptoms of glioblastoma vary depending on the location of the tumor, but they may
include:

• Persistent headaches

• Double or blurred vision

• Nausea

• Vomiting

• Loss of appetite

• Changes in mood or personality

• Changes in ability to think and learn

• Memory loss

• New onset of seizures

• Muscle weakness

• Speech difficulty

Ayurvedic Treatment For Glioblastoma
Multiforme At Central India, Nagpur at
Parijatak
In Ayurveda, There are various Treatment method availble to treat Glioblastoma
Multiforme

It is very difficult to treat glioblastoma due to several complicating factors:

• The tumor cells are very resistant to conventional therapies.

• The brain is susceptible to damage due to conventional therapy.

• The brain has a very limited capacity to repair itself.

• Many drugs cannot cross the blood–brain barrier to act on the tumor.

Treatment of primary brain tumors and brain metastases consists of both symptomatic
therapies, palliative therapies, Vatakapha Haram and Medo Haram

Symptomatic therapy

Supportive treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and improving the patient’s

neurologic function.

The primary supportive agents are anticonvulsants and corticosteroids.

http://parijatak.com/ayurvedic-treatment-for-glioblastoma-multiforme-at-central-india/
Historically, around 90% of patients with glioblastoma underwent anticonvulsant
treatment, although it has been estimated that only approximately 40% of patients
required this treatment. Recently, it has been recommended that neurosurgeons not
administer anticonvulsants prophylactically, and should wait until a seizure occurs
before prescribing this medication. Those receiving phenytoin concurrent with radiation
may have serious skin reactions such as erythema multiforme and Stevens–Johnson
syndrome.

Corticosteroids, usually dexamethasone given 4 to 8 mg every 4 to 6 h, can reduce

peritumoral edema (through rearrangement of the blood–brain barrier), diminishing
mass effect and lowering intracranial pressure, with a decrease in headache or
drowsiness.

Palliative therapy
Palliative treatment usually is conducted to improve quality of life and to achieve a
longer survival time. It includes surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. A
maximally feasible resection with maximal tumor-free margins is usually performed

http://parijatak.com/ayurvedic-treatment-for-glioblastoma-multiforme-at-central-india/
along with external beam radiation and chemotherapy. Gross total resection of tumor is
associated with a better prognosis.

• Surgery
Surgery is the first stage of treatment of glioblastoma. An average GBM tumor
contains cells, which is on average reduced to cells after surgery (a reduction of
99%). Benefits of surgery include resection for a pathological diagnosis,
alleviation of symptoms related to mass effect, and potentially removing disease
before secondary resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy occurs.

• Radiotherapy
Subsequent to surgery, radiotherapy becomes the mainstay of treatment for
people with glioblastoma. It is typically performed along with giving temozolomide
(TMZ).A pivotal clinical trial carried out in the early 1970s showed that among ,
GBM patients randomized to radiation or nonradiation therapy, those who
received radiation had a median survival more than double those who did not.

Subsequent clinical research has attempted to build on the backbone of surgery

followed by radiation. On average, radiotherapy after surgery can reduce the
tumor size to cells. Whole-brain radiotherapy does not improve when compared

http://parijatak.com/ayurvedic-treatment-for-glioblastoma-multiforme-at-central-india/
 to the more precise and targeted three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy. A
total radiation dose of 60–65 Gy has been found to be optimal for treatment.

• Chemotherapy
Most studies show no benefit from the addition of chemotherapy. However, a
large clinical trial of 575 participants randomized to standard radiation versus
radiation plus temozolomide chemotherapy showed that the group receiving
temozolomide survived a median of 14.6 months as opposed to 12.1 months for
the group receiving radiation alone.

This treatment regime is now standard for most cases of glioblastoma where the
person is not enrolled in a clinical trial.Temozolomide seems to work by
sensitizing the tumor cells to radiation.
