| Abstract: | Despite aggressive multimodality treatment, the prognosis of glioma, especially malignant glioma, remains very poor. After decades of effort, anti‐angiogenic therapy has become an important method of cancer treatment in addition to surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Although the performance of anti‐angiogenic therapy in colorectal cancer is good, its performance in malignant glioma remains unsatisfactory. Several phase III clinical trials showed no overall survival benefits. To solve this problem, the division of patients into groups based on their molecular biomarkers is an important step. This paper provides current insights into anti‐angiogenic drugs undergoing clinical trials and discusses the potential of molecular biomarkers to guide glioma diagnosis. |
