Pilot Study Effect of Sulfasalazine on Glutamate Levels by(Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy)MRS in Patients With Glioma

Brain Tumor Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Pilot Study to Determine the Effect of Sulfasalazine on Glutamate Levels Detected by Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy(MRS) in Patients With Glioma

Clinical Trial Summary

The main purpose of this part of the study is to determine the Central Nervous System bioavailability of sulfasalazine.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a pilot, open-label, non-randomized, study to determine the effect that orally administered sulfasalazine has on glutamate levels as measured by MRS and on epileptiform spiking as measured by simultaneous MEG/EEG. The intent of the dose escalation is to determine an Optimal Biological Dose (OBD) based on changes in tumor glutamate levels. The OBD is defined as the dose that has the maximal reduction in tumor glutamate levels after normalization to uninvolved brain. ;

Study Design

Endpoint Classification: Bio-availability Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
