Can anyone tell me which medication is typically used here, and how long it usually takes for brain swelling to go down before they can actually move forward with surgery?

My mom was just diagnosed with a glioblastoma—a type of brain tumor. I’m trying to wrap my head around what the best next steps are and which treatments actually make a difference. I’ve read that Temodal is a standard option, but I also came across some research regarding a drug developed here in the States called DCA, and I was wondering if anyone here knows much about it? Any insight would be huge. Thanks.
