Brief Summary

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

To obtain preliminary data in a randomized phase II study whether PPX/RT improves progression-free survival as compared to temozolomide/RT for patients with GBM without MGMT methylation.

Detailed Description

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

To evaluate the toxicities of PPX/RT To evaluate neuro-cognitive functional assessments of patients with GBM receiving PPX/RT To obtain preliminary data in a randomized phase II study whether PPX/RT improves overall survival as compared to temozolomide /RT for patients with GBM without MGMT methylation to facilitate planning a phase III study.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Histologically proven diagnosis of glioblastoma or gliosarcoma (WHO grade IV)
* GBM must have unmethylated MGMT as determined by central laboratory
* Diagnosis of GBM must be made by biopsy or surgical excision, either partial or complete; as long as there is sufficient tissue to determine MGMT status
* No prior chemotherapy or radiation for brain tumor
* Must be able to tolerate brain MRIs.

\*A diagnostic contrast-enhanced MRI must be performed postoperatively within 42 days prior to study registration.
* KPS \>60.
* Age \> 18
* Life expectancy of at least 3 months.
* Absolute neutrophil count \> 1500/mm3, Platelets \> 100,000/mm,
* Creatinine \< 2 x ULN
* ALT or AST \< 3 x upper limit of normal (ULN) and total bilirubin \< 1.5x ULN.
* Patients with a prior history of low grade glioma who did not receive prior radiation or chemotherapy with transformation to grade IV brain tumor are eligible.
* Women must be non-lactating, and surgically sterile, post-menopausal or have a negative serum pregnancy test and agree to use adequate birth control. Males must agree to use adequate birth control.
* Voluntary, signed informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

* Acute infection or other medical condition that would impair study treatment
* No other active invasive malignancy unless disease free for at least 3 years.
* Prior temozolomide or PPX.
* Prior use of Gliadel wafers or any other intratumoral or intracavitary treatment are not permitted.
* Prior radiotherapy to the head or neck (except for T1 glottic cancer), resulting in overlap of radiation fields.
* No diffuse leptomeningeal disease, or gliomatosis cerebri.
* Use of any other experimental chemotherapy drug within the 60 days prior to randomization and during the trial. (Use of a non-chemotherapy investigational agent must be approved by the Brown University Oncology Group)
