Pooledresponse rates (RRs) were calculated. <br/><b>Results</b>: In temozolomide based regimens, 5 clinical studies including 152patients with advanced glioma were considered eligible for inclusion. Four clinical studies included temozolomide.Systematic analysis suggested that, in all patients, pooled CR was 21% (32/152) , and PR was 21% (32/152).Grade 3/4 toxicity included neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia. No grade 3 or 4 renal or liver toxicitywas observed. No treatment related death occurred with temozolomide based treatment. <br/><b>Conclusion</b>: Thissystematic analysis suggests that temozolomide based regimens are associated with mild response rate andacceptable toxicity for treatment of glioma patients. https://journal.waocp.org/article_29933_c1a8e24ac99282815a04bb3869db42d1.pdf
