Antineoplaston Therapy in Treating Patients With Primary Malignant Brain Tumors

Summary

RATIONALE: Current therapies for adults with primary malignant brain tumors that have not responded to standard therapy provide very limited benefit to the patient. The anti-cancer properties of Antineoplaston therapy suggest that it may prove beneficial in the treatment of adults with primary malignant brain tumors that have not responded to standard therapy. PURPOSE: This study is being performed to determine the effects (good and bad) that Antineoplaston therapy has on adults with primary malignant brain tumors that have not responded to standard therapy.
