The malignant brain tumor Glioblastoma (GBM) is a tragic illness for patients and families due to poor patientprognosis, with only 9.8% of patients surviving past 5 years. Only modest gains in survival have been madedespite decades of research, therefore, a better understanding of the basic biology of this disease is needed toimprove patient outcomes. Hypoxia is characteristic of GBM and many other tumors, and is increased by theanti-angiogenic agent bevacizumab, which is commonly used for recurrent GBM tumors.
