Last week, the Ivy Brain Tumor Center published a manuscript in Science Translational Medicine authored by Nader Sanai, MD, Shwetal Mehta, PHD, Artak Tovmasyan, PHD, An-Chi Tien, PHD, Igor Barani, MD, Charuta Furey, MD, and Zaman Mirzadeh, MD, in collaboration with other Ivy Center team members. The manuscript presents results from our early phase clinical trial utilizing sonodynamic therapy (SDT) in recurrent high-grade glioma patients. SDT pairs 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), which is metabolized to protoporphyrin IX in glioma cells, with noninvasive, image-guided focused ultrasound to trigger tumor-selective oxidative injury.

Dr. Mehta illustrates the importance of the results and says, "our study provides proof of principle for safety and feasibility of 5-ALA SDT as a therapeutic modality for glioma. Ongoing and future efforts will be focused on optimizing the treatment parameters for clinical efficacy."
