NCT00430079

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)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients 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.
