Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The aim of the present Phase III study is to assess the positive predictive value of NPC-07 (5-aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride) induced tissue fluorescence, safety and pharmacokinetics following a single dose of NPC-07 orally, at a dose of 20mg/kg/body weight, 3 hours prior to induction of anaesthesia for surgery of patients with newly or recurrent malignant glioma (WHO grades III/IV). Positive predictive value will be confirmed by percentage of patients showing positive tumor cell identification in all biopsies taken from areas of strong and weak fluorescence. This study will be divided into two stages. After reviewing of the result of safety and pharmacokinetics of NPC-07 in small number of subjects by independent safety monitoring committee, more subjects will receive NPC-07 in Step II.
