- Summary:
- In a significant breakthrough, researchers have identified a drug, propentofylline or PPF, that could help treat patients with deadly brain cancer. They report that PPF works to limit the spread of glioblastoma multiforme, or GBM -- the most common primary tumor of the brain and central nervous system -- by targeting a protein called TROY.

- Not sure if any one else already posted. Believe it says it's already been FDA approved. So, may be something to consider adding to a cocktail? Thoughts?
- Hope I posted this right as first time trying. :-)
