Evolving concepts in margin strategies and adaptive radiotherapy for glioblastoma: A new future is on the horizon
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment after maximal safe resection for glioblastoma (GBM). Despite advances in molecular profiling, surgical techniques, and neuro-imaging, there have been no major breakthroughs in radiotherapy (RT) volumes in decades. Although the majority of recurrences occur within the original gross tumor volume (GTV), treatment of a clinical target volume (CTV) ranging from 1.5 to 3.0 cm beyond the GTV remains the standard of care. Over the past 15 years, the incorporation of standard and functional MRI sequences into the treatment workflow has become a routine practice with increasing adoption of MR simulators, and new integrated MR-Linac technologies allowing for daily pre-, intra- and post-treatment MR imaging. There is now unprecedented ability to understand the tumor dynamics and biology of GBM during RT, and safe CTV margin reduction is being investigated with the goal of improving the therapeutic ratio. The purpose of this review is to discuss margin strategies and the potential for adaptive RT for GBM, with a focus on the challenges and opportunities associated with both online and offline adaptive workflows. Lastly, opportunities to biologically guide adaptive RT using non-invasive imaging biomarkers and the potential to define appropriate volumes for dose modification will be discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
