  • Carmustine 7.7Mg Wafer — DRUG
    GLIADEL wafers will be placed to cover tumor bed immediately after tumor removal.

Study Details

This study is being done to see if adding GLIADEL to the site where the tumor was removed works as well as just having the tumor removed with radiation treatment done within six weeks after the surgery to keep the cancer from coming back.

Arms

  • No Intervention: Standard of Care Arm
    The tumor will be removed surgically. Within 6 weeks after surgery, the resection will be treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS).
  • Experimental: GLIADEL Arm
    Once the tumor has been removed, GLIADEL wafers will be applied to the resection cavity. The number of wafers used will be determined by the size of the cavity. Enough wafers should be used so that as much of the cavity is covered as possible.

Primary Outcome Measure

Efficacy of GLIADEL compared to Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
