Sirolimus in Treating Patients With Glioblastoma Multiforme

Completed · Phase 1/Phase 2

Conditions studied: Brain and Central Nervous System Tumors

In brief

RATIONALE: Chemotherapy drugs such as sirolimus use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving a chemotherapy drug before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed during surgery. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of sirolimus in treating patients who have glioblastoma multiforme that did not respond to previous radiation therapy.
