All glioblastoma (GBM) patients had isocitrate dehydrogenase-wildtype. Plasma and tumor tissue samples were obtained from all GBM patients. Cyst fluid samples were obtained from three GBM patients shown in bold with an asterisk (*). The above patient information is as of August 1, 2015. There was a statistically significant difference (p = 4.85×10−6) in age between GBM patients and healthy controls. There was no statistically significant difference in gender between GBM patients and healthy controls. F, female; M, male; OS, overall survival time; PFS, progression-free survival time
