Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: 6 months rate of progression free survival (PFS6) ;Secondary Objective: •Safety and tolerability of APG101<br>•Progression-free survival<br>•Objective response rates (OR) <br>•Duration of response (DR) in responders<br>•Overall survival <br>•Quality of life as determined by EORTC QLQ-C15 PAL and the EORTC brain module QLQ-BN 20 <br>•Cognitive function determined by MMSE<br>;Primary end point(s): Primary endpoint is number of patients beeing progression free after 6 month (PFS6). <br>Patients with a confirmed PFS time of at least 6 month will be defined as responders. Progression free survival (PFS) is defined as time from randomization until death or disease progression according to Macdonald criteria. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At first interims analysis (after 28 patients have been included and treated for 6 month) and at the end of the study
