For elderly patients, brain cancer treatment is tailored to overall health and comfort. Options often include surgery to remove the tumor if safe, or targeted radiation therapy, which can sometimes be given in shorter courses. Chemotherapy, using generic medications like temozolomide, may also be recommended. Additionally, supportive medications are vital: corticosteroids like dexamethasone help reduce brain swelling, and anticonvulsants like levetiracetam prevent seizures. Our primary goal is maintaining your loved one's quality of life and comfort. We work closely with a multidisciplinary team to design the gentlest, most effective plan possible. Please discuss these options with their oncologist to find the best path forward.
