Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of carboxyamidotriazole plus radiation therapy in treating patients who have newly diagnosed supratentorial glioblastoma multiforme.

- Patients receive induction therapy consisting of radiotherapy once daily 5 days a week plus oral carboxyamidotriazole once daily for 6 weeks followed by carboxyamidotriazole alone daily for 4 weeks. Patients continue on oral carboxyamidotriazole once daily as maintenance therapy in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are followed monthly for survival.
