Brief Title: Trans Sodium Crocetinate (TSC) Study of Intra-tumoral Oxygen Concentration, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics in Patients With High Grade Glioma
Official Title: Open-label Study to Determine the Effect of Trans Sodium Crocetinate (TSC) on Intra-tumoral Oxygen Concentration, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of TSC in Post-operative Patients With High Grade Glioma (HGG)
Study ID: NCT00826930
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of Trans Sodium Crocetinate (TSC) on oxygen levels in brain tumor tissue in patients with high grade glioma. The proposed clinical indication for TSC is a radiation sensitizer for the treatment of cancerous tumors.
Detailed Description: In this open-label, one-site study, up to 48 patients with high grade glioma (HGG) who are undergoing biopsy or partial debulking of the tumor as part of standard of care will have an oxygen monitoring probe placed in residual tumor tissue. Oxygen levels in the tumor tissue will be measured prior to and after administering a single bolus injection of TSC. Safety assessments will occur throughout the trial, including at a 7 to 14 day follow-up visit. Pharmacokinetic assessments will be performed prior to and during the first 24 hours after TSC dosing.
