What is Involved?
If you choose to join this study, you will stay at the hospital for about 2.5 days to have surgery. This surgery will involve:
- Taking a biopsy (small sample) of your brain tumor
- Placing a catheter (small tube) in your brain
- Placing a pump under the skin of your abdomen (belly)
You will get the study drug through this pump, which will then move the study drug into your brain tissue.
You will return to our clinic every 7 days starting after the first time you get the study drug. During these visits, you will:
- Have a physical exam
- Answer questionnaires
- Have an electrocardiogram
- Have blood drugs
- Have the study drug pump refilled and restarted.
- Have an MRI (only at certain visits)
You will continue to receive the study drug until you decide to stop the study or if the study doctor determines that the drug is not helping you.
