Brief Summary: The combination therapy of temozolomide and radiation has been established as the standard therapy for the initial treatment of glioblastoma However the prognosis for patients with recurrent refractory glioblastoma is dismal with a median survival of 36 months There is no efficient and standard care at the time of recurrence or progression following temozolomide administration Recently many clinicians have reassessed the efficacy of second-line chemotherapeutic agents such as nitrosoureas for the treatment of recurrentrefractory glioblastoma It is very important that the effect of the agent is sustained and the adverse effect is reduced to preserve the quality of life in recurrent settings We have realized that the clinical features of Korean patients are very different from those of foreign patients Therefore it is mandatory to develop the new strategy for the treatment of Korean patients We modify the PCV chemotherapy in the dose and administration schedule of CCNU and procarbazine to reduce the side effect especially hematologic problems The dose of CCNU is reduced to 75mgm2 and the interval between CCNU and procarbazine is increased Moreover vincristine is excluded because BBB permeability of vincristine is very poor and the risk of neurotoxicity is high We introduce the modified PC chemotherapy regimen for the treatment of recurrentrefractory glioblastoma which is the first multicenter trial for glioblastoma patients in Korea
