Eribulin prolongs survival in an orthotopic xenograft mouse model of malignant meningioma.

ABSTRACT: Meningioma is the most common intracranial tumor, with generally favorable patient prognosis. However, patients with malignant meningioma typically experience recurrence, undergo multiple surgical resections, and ultimately have a poor prognosis. Thus far, effective chemotherapy for malignant meningiomas has not been established. We recently reported the efficacy of eribulin (Halaven) for glioblastoma with a telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter mutation. This study investigated the anti-tumor effect of eribulin against TERT promoter mutation-harboring human malignant meningioma cell lines in vitro and in vivo. Two meningioma cell lines, IOMM-Lee and HKBMM, were used in this study. The strong inhibition of cell proliferation by eribulin via cell cycle arrest was demonstrated thr
