Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining more than one chemotherapy drug may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy following radiation therapy in treating patients who have malignant glioma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the safety and efficacy of extended low-dose temozolomide when combined with carmustine after radiotherapy in patients with malignant glioma
Determine the maximum tolerated dose of this combination in this patient population
Determine time to progression as measured from baseline gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study of temozolomide

Patients receive oral temozolomide once daily on days 1-28 and carmustine IV over 1-3 hours beginning within 72 hours after starting temozolomide Courses repeat every 8 weeks for up to 1 year in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of temozolomide until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity

Patients are followed every 2 months

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 3-24 patients will be accrued for this study within 1-2 years
