Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells and may be an effective treatment for patients with anaplastic astrocytomas

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of radiation therapy in treating patients with anaplastic astrocytomas
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Compare the disease-free interval and survival in patients with supratentorial malignant brain gliomas randomized to radiotherapy alone vs radiotherapy plus radiosensitization with mitolactol DBD followed by DBD and carmustine

OUTLINE Randomized study Group I Radiotherapy External-beam cranial irradiation with megavoltage equipment Group II Radiotherapy with Radiosensitization followed by Maintenance Chemotherapy Radiotherapy as in Group I with Mitolactol DBD NSC-104800 followed by DBD Carmustine BCNU NSC-409962

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 212 patients will be entered over more than 3 years
