Eligibility Criteria: Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 18 years, smoking or non-smoking, of any ethnic origin and gender * Patients present with unequivocal first, second or third recurrence of a histologically confirmed IDH1R132H-mutated glioma WHO grade II, III or IV progressive after radiotherapy and chemotherapy * Absence of chromosomal 1p/19q co-deletion in the primary tumor tissue and/or * Loss of nuclear ATRX expression in the primary tumor tissue (partial loss allowed) * Availability of tumor tissue for analysis (FFPE bulk tissue) * Patients have received radiotherapy (54 - 60 Gy) and at least six months of alkylating chemotherapy * Patients are at least three months off radiotherapy * Patients must be candidates for re-resection and the re-resection must be postponable for seven weeks * Patients should be immunocompetent (i.e. no concomitant treatment with dexamethasone (or equivalent), or receive stable/decreasing steroid levels not exceeding 2 mg/day dexamethasone (or equivalent) during the last 3 days prior to clinical screening; no severe lymphopenia) * Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 70 * Estimated creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula (or local institutional standard method) * Ability of patient to understand character and individual consequences of the clinical trial * Evidence of informed consent document personally signed and dated by the patient (or a witness in case the patient is unable to write) and indicating that the patient has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study and that the patient consents to participate in the trial * Women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP; i.e. those who have not undergone a hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral oophorectomy or who have not been post-menopausal for at least 24 consecutive months) must have a negative serum pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) within 72 hours prior to the start of the investigational medicinal product(s) (IMPs). * WOCBP must be using an effective method of birth control to avoid pregnancy throughout the study and for 3 months after the last dose of the IMP. This includes two different forms of effective contraception (e.g. hormonal contraceptive and condom, IUD/IUS and condom) or sterilization, resulting in a failure rate less than 1% per year. * Men must be willing and able to use an effective method of birth control throughout the study for up to 3 months after the last dose of the IMP(s), if their sexual partners are WOCBP (acceptable methods see above). * Availability of pre-study MRT (magnetic resonance tomography) of latest tumor recurrence * Patients who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures. Exclusion Criteria: * Current use of immunosuppressive medication, EXCEPT for the following: 1. intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, or local steroid injection (e.g., intra-articular injection); 2. Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses ≤ 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent; 3. Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., CT scan premedication). * Pregnancy or lactation * Previous or concurrent experimental treatment for the tumor other than radiotherapy and alkylating chemotherapy. This includes local therapies such as interstitial radiotherapy or local chemotherapy (i.e. BCNU wafers), loco-regional hyperthermia, electric fields, and antiangiogenic therapy (such as Bevacizumab). * Abnormal (≥ Grade 2 CTCAE v4.03) laboratory values for thyroid gland: free T4 and TSH * Abnormal (≥ Grade 2 CTCAE v4.03) laboratory values for hematology, liver and renal function (serum creatinine). In detail, the following values apply as exclusion criteria: 1. Hemoglobin \< 9 g/dL (5.59 mmol/L) 2. White blood cell count (WBC) decrease (\<3.0 x 109/L) or increase (\> 10.0 x 109/L) 3. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) decrease (\< 1.5 x 109/L) 4. Platelet count decrease (\< 100 x 109/L) 5. Bilirubin \> 1.5 x ULN (upper limit of normal according to the performing lab´s reference range) 6. ALT \> 2,5 x ULN 7. AST \> 2,5 x ULN 8. GGT \> 2.5 x ULN 9. Serum creatinine increase (\> 1.5 x ULN) * Patients with history or presence of HIV and/or HBV/HCV positivity (positive HBV surface antigen or HCV RNA if anti-HCV antibody screening test positive) * Patients with history or known presence of tuberculosis (positive QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test (or equivalent) or tuberculin skin test). Patients with an indeterminate result of the QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test (or equivalent) are not eligible unless additional testing demonstrates a negative result (tuberculin skin test or repeated QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test/or equivalent). If a tuberculin skin test is performed, an induration of \> 6 mm is "positive" for a patient with history of BCG vaccine, while an induration of \> 10 mm is "positive" for a patient without history of BCG vaccine. If necessary, a QuantiFERON®-TB Gold or equivalent test might be complemented by additional specific diagnostic tests as per standard procedures. * Patients with severe infection(s) or signs/symptoms of infection within 2 weeks prior to the first administration of the study drug(s) * Active infection requiring systemic therapy * Patients who have received a live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to the first administration of the study drug(s) * Patients with a prior solid organ transplantation or haematopoietic stem cell transplantation * Active autoimmune disease that might deteriorate when receiving an immuno-stimulatory agent. Patients with diabetes type I, vitiligo, psoriasis, or hypo- or hyperthyroid diseases not requiring immunosuppressive treatment are eligible. * Clinically significant (i.e., active) cardiovascular disease: Cerebral vascular accident/stroke (\< 6 months prior to enrolment), myocardial infarction (\< 6 months prior to enrolment), unstable angina, congestive heart failure (≥ New York Heart Association Classification Class II), or serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication. * Persisting toxicity related to prior therapy (NCI CTCAE v.4.03 Grade \>1); however, alopecia, sensory neuropathy Grade ≤ 2, or other persisting toxicities Grade ≤ 2 not constituting a safety risk based on investigator´s judgement is acceptable. * Other severe acute or chronic medical conditions including colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, pneumonitis, pulmonary fibrosis or psychiatric conditions including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation or behavior; or laboratory abnormalities that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study treatment administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study. * History of hypersensitivity to the investigational medicinal product or to any drug with similar chemical structure or to any excipient present in the pharmaceutical form of the investigational medicinal product, including known severe hypersensitivity reactions to monoclonal antibodies (NCI CTCAE v4.03 Grade ≥ 3). * Participation in other clinical trials or their observation period during the last 30 days before the first administration of the IMP(s).
