入选标准

  • Presence of a brain tumor with high probability of being a glioma as detected by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). These would include newly diagnosed tumors or potentially recurrent gliomas.
  • No prior treatment for the tumor including chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
  • Amenable to surgery for biopsy or resection of the brain tumor. Surgically confirmed diagnosis of glioma (glioblastoma multiforme [GBM], anaplastic astrocytoma [AA], anaplastic oligodendroglioma [AO], anaplastic oligoastrocytoma [AOA], astrocytoma [A] or oligodendroglioma [O]) will be
  • required for patients to be maintained in the study. Those not fulfilling this requirement will be discontinued and will be replaced.
  • Use of medically approved contraception in fertile males and females.
  • Women with childbearing potential must have a negative urine or serum
  • pregnancy test (urinary excretion or serum level of beta-Human Chorionic
  • Gonadotropin [bHCG]) within 72 hours of randomization.
  • Karnofsky Performance Status score >= 70%.
  • Signed informed consent form

排除标准

  • Prior chemotherapy.
  • Prior radiotherapy at the tumor site.
  • History of non-compliance to other therapies.
  • Inadequate haematological, renal and hepatic function according to all of the following laboratory values (to be performed within 14 days, inclusive, prior to study inclusion):
  • Absolute neutrophil count ≤1.5 x 10^9/L;
  • Platelets ≤100 x 10^9/L;
  • Haemoglobin <90 g/L;
  • Serum creatinine ≥1.5 times upper limit of laboratory normal;
  • Total serum bilirubin ≥1.5 times upper limit of laboratory normal (ULN);
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 2.0 ULN;
  • Alkaline phosphatase of > 2.5 ULN.
  • Known Human Immunodeficiency Virus [HIV] infection.
  • Known chronic hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection.
  • Any other serious medical condition according to the medical judgment of the physician prior to inclusion in the study.
  • Any medical condition, which could interfere with oral medication intake (e.g., frequent vomiting, partial bowel obstruction).
