Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most lethal primary brain tumor in adults with a less than 5% chance of survival beyond 5 years. With few effective therapies beyond the standard of care, there are often treatment resistant recurrences seen in most patients. STAT5 is a protein that has shown to be upregulated in highly invasive and treatment resistant GBM. Elucidating the role of STAT5 in GBM could reveal a node of therapeutic vulnerability in primary and recurrent GBM.
