Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Cilengitide may stop the growth of glioblastoma multiforme by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving cilengitide before and after surgery may be an effective treatment for glioblastoma multiforme. This phase II trial is studying how well cilengitide works in treating patients who are undergoing surgery for recurrent or progressive glioblastoma multiforme.

- Group I (high-dose cilengitide) 2000mg
- description
- Preoperative Treatment: Patients receive high-dose cilengitide IV over 1 hour on days -8, -4, and -1. (High dose 2000mg) Resection: All patients undergo tumor resection on day 0. Postoperative Treatment: Beginning within 2 weeks after surgery, all patients receive high-dose cilengitide IV over 1 hour twice weekly for 4 weeks. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for up to 24 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
