TL;DR: The BNCT is a promising and possibly curative method of treating GBM, but at present this procedure is far from perfect because of the lack of selectivity of the boron carriers.

Boron neutron capture therapy for malignant gliomas.
TL;DR: The key to effective BNCT of tumours, such as glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), is the preferential accumulation of boron-10 in the tumour, including the infiltrating GBM cells, as compared with that in the vital structures of the normal brain.

Boron Neutron Capture Therapy of a Murine Mammary Carcinoma using a Lipophilic Carboranyltetraphenylporphyrin1
Michiko Miura,G. M. Morris,Peggy L. Micca,Diana T. Lombardo,Kelly M. Youngs,John Kalef-Ezra,Duane A. Hoch,Daniel N. Slatkin,Ruimei Ma,Jeffrey A. Coderre +9 more
TL;DR: The first control of a malignant tumor in vivo by porphyrin- mediated boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is described, and equivalent long-term tumor control by a single exposure to 42 Gy X rays was achieved, but with greater damage to the irradiated leg.

The effects of boron neutron capture irradiation on oral mucosa: evaluation using a rat tongue model.
Jeffrey A. Coderre,G. M. Morris,John Kalef-Ezra,Peggy L. Micca,Ruimei Ma,Kelly M. Youngs,C. R. Gordon +6 more
TL;DR: Oral mucosa is highly sensitive to B PA-mediated BNC irradiation and could be a dose-limiting normal tissue in BNCT of brain tumors, or if BPA-based BN CT is applied to the treatment of head and neck tumors.
