Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • 1\. Malignant glioma (World Health Organisation grade IV). Preoperative assessment by clinical presentation and Computed tomography (CT) / Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans appearance of the lesion will identify suitable candidates. Progression to enrolment will be dependent upon the neuropathological diagnosis being confirmed.
  • 2\. Age 18 – 75
  • 3\. Macroscopic tumour resection (ie it was felt by the surgeon at operation that all visible tumour was resected; tumour seen on postoperative imaging does not exclude the patient from consideration)
  • 4\. Patient undergoing standard postoperative radiotherapy and concurrent temozolomide chemotherapy, followed by post\-radiotherapy temozolomide.

Exclusion Criteria

  • 1\. Presence of extensive intracranial or intraspinal disease which precludes total macroscopic or subtotal resection.
  • 2\. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status \> 2
  • 3\. Documented history of auto\-immune disease such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), sarcoidosis, rheumatoid arthritis, glomerulonephritis or vasculitis. Previous use of long term immunosuppressive therapy in recent months. (NB perioperative short term
  • dexamethasone, which is normal treatment, does not preclude inclusion in the trial)
  • 4\. Prior use of any immunotherapeutic agent.
  • 5\. Serology indicating active infection with Hepatitis B or C, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), human T\-cell leukemia virus\-1 (HTLV\-1\) or syphilis
  • 6\. Significant non\-malignant disease (eg severe cardiac or respiratory dysfunction)
  • 7\. Pregnancy
  • 8\. Presence of another malignancy.
  • 9\. Clinically relevant abnormal haematological and biochemical parameters (as assessed by the treating clinician).
