Michael Castro, MD, Beverly Hills Cancer Center, California, discusses the results of a retrospective study evaluating the effect proton pump inhibition use may have on survival outcomes of patients with glioblastoma.
In this real-world evidence dataset, the use of proton pump inhibitors appeared to antagonize chemotherapy and have a negative impact on the survival of patients with glioblastoma.
