N1 - Clinical Study - Patient Study Glioblastoma (GBM) is rare in early adulthood and little information is available on this subgroup. We investigated whether young age (18-30 years) had an independent effect on survival. We retrospectively reviewed patients from two large databases: Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) and American College of Surgeons National Cancer Data Base (NCDB).
