Annual Research Progress of Glioma in China in 2022

Abstract

Glioma, the most prevalent primary malignant tumor of the adult central nervous system, is highly malignant. Despite the current clinical treatment options including surgical resection, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the survival period of patients is still relatively short, which poses a serious threat to patients' lives and health. In recent years, the research on glioma has made great progress, and the study on the mechanism of glioma development and the characteristics of the immune microenvironment has also deepened. At the same time, researches on molecular pathological typing of glioma, comprehensive clinical diagnostic and therapeutic programs, novel drug delivery systems and big data clinical translation are also steadily underway. This article reviews the research progress in the field of glioma in China in 2022, with the hope of providing reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
