Eligibility Criteria

Age 18+ · All Participants · 10 Total Inclusion Criteria

Mark “Yes” if the following statements are true for you:
Participants must have experienced progression of a high-grade glioma (grades III and IV) following standard therapy or be at the first recurrence with an unmethylated HGG, having completed prior treatment but not currently scheduled for resection in order to qualify.
A diagnostic biopsy with local pathology review or contrast-enhanced MRI showing positive perfusion must be used to confirm recurrence.
Your arms A-D must have a detectable level of illness prior to the procedure, as indicated by at least one area which enhances contrast imaging with a volume between 6 and 20 cm3 in size.
You must be 18 years or older at the time of consent.
You have a PS rating of 2 or lower on the ECOG scale (Oken et al
You possess sufficient bone marrow and organ capabilities, as attested to by laboratory assessments.
Your absolute neutrophil count is greater than or equal to 1,000/mcL.
Your platelet count at the time of surgery was 100,000/mcL or higher.
You have a minimum hemoglobin level of 8.0 g/dL, and you may receive erythrocyte transfusions to achieve this concentration at the discretion of the investigator.
Your total bilirubin must be no more than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal, although those with Gilbert's syndrome can have an amount up to 2.0 times ULN so long as their direct bilirubin is within standard parameters.
