Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

RATIONALE: 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 chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining temozolomide with radiation therapy in treating patients who have newly diagnosed anaplastic oligodendrogliomas or mixed anaplastic oligoastrocytomas.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the rate of progression in patients with newly diagnosed anaplastic oligodendrogliomas or mixed anaplastic oligoastrocytomas treated with neoadjuvant and concurrent temozolomide with radiotherapy.
* Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
* Determine the survival of patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to response to neoadjuvant temozolomide (stable disease or partial response (PR) vs complete response (CR)).

Patients receive oral temozolomide on days 1-7 and 15-21. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with CR or PR receive 2 courses beyond CR or PR.

Within 6 weeks after completion of neoadjuvant temozolomide, patients with stable disease or PR undergo radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6.5 weeks. Patients also receive oral temozolomide daily for 42 days concurrently with radiotherapy.

Patients with CR after completion of neoadjuvant temozolomide undergo observation.

Patients are followed at 9 and 12 months, every 4 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 37 patients will be accrued for this study within 12 months.
