Abstract
Although advances in surgery, radiation therapy, and stereotactic radiosurgery have significantly improved the treatment of meningiomas, there remains an important subset of patients whose tumors are refractory to conventional therapy. Treatment with traditional chemotherapeutic agents has provided minimal benefit. In this review, the role of targeted molecular therapies for recurrent or progressive meningiomas is discussed.Entities:
