This study looks at the drug cilengitide in younger patients with recurrent or progressive high-grade glioma (a type of brain tumor) that has not responded to standard therapy. People with histologically confirmed high-grade glioma and measurable disease who had received at most two prior treatments for this tumor could take part. The study was carried out in Phase 2 and has been completed.
The summary above is a plain-language rendering of the official record. The original English title is shown for reference.
Criteria are reproduced from the ClinicalTrials.gov record in the original English. Only the trial team can determine eligibility.
