Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients must have pathologically confirmed (histology or cytology), resectable or non resectable, glioblastoma multiforme with a size \< 5 cm on MRI if non resectable
  • Patients must be at least 7 days but no more than 2 months since surgery or biopsy.
  • Patients must have an ECOG Performance Status ≤ 2.

  • Patients with uncontrolled seizures despite standard anticonvulsant therapy
  • Any prior systemic treatment (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy) for glioblastoma multiforme
  • Significantly abnormal haematological status as judged by:
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \< 1500/mm3 (1.5\*109/l) Platelet count \<100,000/mm3 (100\*109/l)
  • Serum bilirubin \>2 mg/dl (\>34 mmol/l) or Transaminase \>2.5x the upper limit of institutional normal or Creatinine \>1.5 mg/dl (\>132 mmol/l)

Exceptions are: superficial basal cell carcinoma or non-metastatic squamous cell cancer of the skin, cervix cancer (cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia -CIN or FIGO stage 1) or prostate intra-epithelial neoplasia (PIN), biochemical relapse free for at least 3 years.
  • Any prior systemic chemotherapy in the past five years for any malignancy in the medical history
  • Any concurrent disease that in the opinion of the investigator would constitute a hazard for participating in this study
  • Known sensitivity to imidazole derivatives
  • Patients under law protection
  • Medical history of phlebitis or pulmonary embolism, thrombocytosis, myocardiopathy, or other relevant cardiac pathology (auricular flutter, auricular fibrillation)
