Brief Summary: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of arsenic trioxide and radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed malignant glioma Drugs such as arsenic trioxide may stop the growth of malignant glioma by stopping blood flow to the tumor Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Combining arsenic trioxide with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES

I To determine the maximum tolerated dose MTD of Arsenic Trioxide ATO when administered on a once a week schedule and a twice a week schedule in conjunction with radiation therapy to patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme

II To determine the toxicity of ATO when it is administered on a once a week schedule and a twice a week schedule in conjunction with radiation therapy in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

I To determine the survival of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme receiving ATO when it is administered on a once a week schedule and a twice a week schedule in conjunction with radiation therapy

II To evaluate the effect of ATO on tumor vasculature by using perfusion MRI III To describe the pharmacokinetics of ATO following weekly and twice weekly injection

OUTLINE This is a nonrandomized open-label multicenter dose-escalation study of arsenic trioxide Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups

Group A Patients receive arsenic trioxide IV over 2 hours once weekly for 6 weeks

Group B Patients receive arsenic trioxide at a lower dose IV over 2 hours twice weekly for 6 weeks

Patients in both groups also undergo radiotherapy once daily 5 days a week for 6 weeks

In both groups cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of arsenic trioxide until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 2 of 3 or 3 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity

Patients are followed weekly for 4 weeks and then every 2 months thereafter
