Abstract_ Purpose Glioblastoma multiforme GBM is resistant to current cytotoxic therapies in part because of enhanced DNA repair. Activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase c-Met has been shown to protect cancer cells from DNA damage. We hypothesized that inhibiting c-Met would decrease this protection and thus sensitize resistant tumor cells to the effects
