Abstract:
Eleven patients with relapsing malignant glioma were treated with fotemustine chemotherapy, a new nitrosourea derivative. One partial response of 13 months duration occurred, resulting in a marked improvement of the quality of life of the patient. Seven patients had stable disease for a median duration of 5 months. Median survival from inclusion in the study was 6 months. Toxicity was mainly hematologic and manageable. We confirm that fotemustine has some activity in patients with relapsing malignant glioma.
