Phase III trial comparing conventional adjuvant Temozolomide with dose-intensive Temozolomide for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (EORTC 26052). Temozolomide is an alkylating agent. Study group/sponsor: EORTC.

Phase 3 study of Enzastaurin versus Lomustine in the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme. Enzastaurin is a potent selective inhibitor of PKCβ; Lomustine is a nitrosourea agent. Study group/sponsor: Eli Lilly.

Phase I/II a study with Cilengitide (EMD121 974) and Temozolomide with concomitant radiation therapy, followed by Cilengitide and Temozolomide maintenance therapy in subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Cilengitide is an angiogenesis inhibitor, Temozolomide is an alkylating agent. Study group/sponsor: Schering-Plough. Contact: Prof. P. Clement.

A phase III, randomised, parallel group, multi-centre study in recurrent glioblastoma patients to compare the efficacy of Cediranib (Recentin, AZD2171) monotherapy and the combination of Cediranib with Lomustine to the efficacy of Lomustine alone. Study group/sponsor: AstraZeneca. Contact: Prof. P. Clement.

Phase III study with Temozolomide vs. radiotherapy in patients with low grade gliomas after stratification for genetic 1p loss (EORTC 26033). Temozolomide is an alkylating agent. Study group/sponsor: EORTC. Contact: Prof. P. Clement.
