All patients will receive Toca 511, a retroviral replicating vector that expresses the cytosine deaminase (CD) gene. CD converts the antifungal 5-FC to the anti-cancer drug 5-FU in cells that have been infected by the Toca 511 vector. Beginning approximately 6 weeks after administration of Toca 511, patients will begin courses of oral Toca FC at pre-specified intervals, depending on cohort, during the approximately 30 week study.

This is a multicenter study evaluating the safety and tolerability of increasing doses of Toca 511, a retroviral replicating vector, injected into the resection cavity of patients with Grade III or Grade IV Gliomas who have elected to undergo surgical removal of their tumor. Approximately 6 weeks after injection of Toca 511, patients will begin an oral courses of Toca FC, an antifungal agent. These one week courses of Toca FC will be repeated during the approximately 30 week study. Two separate cohorts of patients treated with Toca 511 and Toca FC will also be evaluated with either of the following standard treatments for glioma: lomustine or bevacizumab. After completion of this study, all patients will be eligible for enrollment and encouraged to enter a long-term continuation protocol that enables additional Toca FC treatment cycles to be given, as well as permits the collection of long-term safety and survival data.

A Phase 1 Ascending Dose Trial of Safety and Tolerability of Toca 511, a Retroviral Replicating Vector, Administered to Subjects at the Time of Resection for Recurrent High Grade Glioma & Followed by Treatment With Toca FC, Extended-Release 5-FC

Excluding nausea, vomiting and fatigue, any Grade 3 or higher non-hematologic toxicity or any Grade 4 or higher hematologic toxicity, felt to be related to Toca 511 or the Toca 511/Toca FC combination.
