4.2.5 Emerging therapies
A number of emerging therapies are being investigated for high-grade glioma. Most of these emerging therapies are aimed at improving the targeted delivery of anticancer drugs to the tumour without damaging the surrounding tissue (Jain 2018).
The key principle for precision medicine is prompt and clinically oriented communication and coordination with an accredited laboratory and pathologist. Tissue analysis is integral for access to emerging therapies and, as such, tissue specimens should be treated carefully to enable additional histopathological or molecular diagnostic tests in certain scenarios.
