Brief Summary
This clinical trial is using EF5 to measure the oxygen level in tumor cells of patients undergoing surgery or surgery biopsy for newly diagnosed supratentorial malignant glioma. Diagnostic procedures using the drug EF5 to measure the oxygen level in tumor cells may help in planning cancer treatment

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Time to local recurrence
Time from study entry (EF5 administration) to local recurrence, assessed up to 3 years
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Time to death
Up to 3 years
Presence and pattern of EF5 binding in newly diagnosed brain masses by IHC analyses
At 48 hours after EF5 administration
Levels of EF5 binding within histological subtypes of SMG
At baseline, at 1 hour, and the time of surgery
Relationship between hypoxia and clinical outcomes (i.e., time to local recurrence and survival)
Up to 3 years
Association between EF5 binding and Eppendorf needle electrode measurements in brain masses
Up to 3 years
Study Arms (1)
Diagnostic (etanidazole)
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive etanidazole derivative EF5 IV over 1-2½ hours once within 1-2 days before surgical resection or biopsy. Tumor tissue, normal tissue, and/or tumor-infiltrated lymph node samples are collected during surgery and stained for biological markers. Fluorescent immunohistochemistry techniques are used to determine the presence, distribution, and levels of EF5 binding.

- WBC greater than 2,000/mm\^3
- Platelet count greater than 90,000/mm\^3
- Creatinine less than 2.0 mg/dL
- No significant cardiac condition that would preclude study therapy

- No unstable angina pectoris
- Not pregnant or nursing
- Negative pregnancy test
- Fertile patients must use effective contraception during and for 1 month after study completion
- Weight no greater than 130 kilograms
- No grade 3 or 4 peripheral neuropathy
- No other invasive malignancy within the past 3 years that is likely to cause a solitary supratentorial metastasis
- +7 more criteria
