Brief Summary: RATIONALE Collecting fluid from a brain tumor using a small catheter may help doctors learn how much methotrexate gets into the tumor to kill the tumor cells It may also help doctors learn how methotrexate works in the brain and in the rest of the body

PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying how much methotrexate gets into the brain tumor by collecting fluid directly from the tumor through a small catheter in patients undergoing stereotactic biopsy for recurrent high-grade glioma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the feasibility of using microdialysis to study distribution of systemically administered methotrexate in the interstitial fluid within a tumor in patients undergoing stereotactic biopsy for recurrent high-grade gliomas
Determine the systemic and intratumoral pharmacokinetics of this drug in these patients

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients have an intratumoral microdialysis catheter placed while undergoing stereotactic biopsy Between 18-32 hours after placement of catheter patients receive methotrexate IV over 4 hours Microdialysis perfusate and blood specimens are collected before during and for 24 hours after methotrexate administration

Patients are followed at 2 weeks

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 12 patients will be accrued for this study within 6 months
