Background: Increased age is a strong and unfavorable prognostic factor for patients with glioblastoma (GBM).

Objective: To evaluate co-morbid conditions, tumor-related symptoms, medication prescriptions, and subject age for patients with GBM and to establish potential targets for prospective studies. Methods: Electronic health records for 565 patients with IDHwt GBM were evaluated at a single center between January 1, 2000 and August 9, 2021 were retrospectively assessed.
