Abstract

KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: The clinical course of our patient, who sustained remission status for at least 18 months highlights the chance of long-term hormonal and tumor remission and demonstrates the efficacy and safety of discontinuation of temozolomide therapy. Prospective studies are required in order to define predictors of long-term remission of this promising therapeutic modality.
