What is glioblastoma, the aggressive brain cancer that killed former US Rep Mia Love?

  • By HANNAH SCHOENBAUM Associated Press

The death of former U.S. Rep. Mia Love has brought renewed attention to an aggressive form of brain cancer that killed her at age 49. Love was a daughter of Haitian immigrants and the first Black Republican woman elected to the U.S. House. In 2022, she was diagnosed with an aggressive brain cancer called glioblastoma. She said her doctors estimated she had only 10-15 months to live, but she surpassed that. The former lawmaker from Utah had undergone treatment as part of a clinical trial at Duke University. Her daughter said earlier this month that she was no longer responding to treatment.
