Brief Summary: RATIONALE Current therapies for adult recurrentprogressive low grade astrocytoma provide limited benefit to the patient The anti-cancer properties of Antineoplaston therapy suggest that it may prove beneficial in the treatment of adult recurrentprogressive low grade astrocytoma

PURPOSE This study is being performed to determine the effects good and bad that Antineoplaston therapy has on adults with a recurrentprogressive low grade astrocytoma
Detailed Description: OVERVIEW This is a single arm open-label study in which adults with a recurrentprogressive low grade astrocytoma receive gradually escalating doses of intravenous Antineoplaston therapy Atengenal Astugenal until the maximum tolerated dose is reached Treatment continues for at least 12 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

OBJECTIVES

To determine the efficacy of Antineoplaston therapy in adults with a recurrentprogressive low grade astrocytoma as measured by an objective response to therapy complete response partial response or stable disease
To determine the safety and tolerance of Antineoplaston therapy in adults with a recurrentprogressive low grade astrocytoma
To determine objective response tumor size is measured utilizing MRI scans which are performed every 8 weeks for the first two years every 3 months for the third and fourth years every 6 months for the 5th and sixth years and annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20-40 patients will be accrued to this study
