Summary
Survival rates for many cancers are improving, however, for most patients diagnosed with a high grade glioma (HGG) there is limited long term survival. The treatments administered have limited effectiveness due to extensive infiltration of the tumour cells. New therapeutic strategies targeting the invading cell population to further reduce tumour spread are needed. Hence, a better understanding of the mechanisms promoting glioma migration and invasion are urgently required in this fatal disease.
