Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving radiation therapy together with temozolomide may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether giving temozolomide during and/or after radiation therapy is more effective than radiation therapy alone in treating anaplastic glioma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying giving temozolomide during and/or after radiation therapy to see how well it works compared to radiation therapy alone in treating patients with anaplastic glioma.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Survival as Measured From the Day of Randomization

    The duration of survival is the time interval between randomization and the date of death due to any cause. Patients not reported dead or lost to follow up will be censored at the date of the last follow up examination.

    from date from enrollment till the date of death (time till death is up to 10.9 years after patient enrollment in the study)

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Progression-free Survival

    from randomization till the date of disease progression or death (time till death is up to 10.9 years after patient enrollment in the study)

  • Quality of Life of the Patient

    from 14 days prior to randomization till five years or death (time till death is up to 10.9 years after patient enrollment in the study)

  • Neurological Deterioration Free Survival

    within 2 weeks of randomization; during radiotherapy at week 4 and 6; 4 weeks after the end of radiotherapy; Six monthly after the end of radiotherapy; Prior to each cycle of adjuvant therapy; Every six months after the documentation of first progression.
