Al's Comment:

 Proud to say that the Musella Foundation helped to fund this project!    It is a new approach to brain tumor treatment targeting the iron metabolism in the cells.  The conclusion of this study in lab rats was:  "Monotherapy with the iron-mimetic GaM profoundly inhibits trGBM growth and significantly extends disease-specific survival in vivo."  This is in a clinical trial in recurrent Glioblastoma now.  It is an oral drug apparently without major side effects. We will keep a close eye on this.
