Brief Summary: RATIONALE IL-438-37-PE38KDEL immunotoxin may locate tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells This may be an effective treatment for recurrent malignant astrocytoma

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of IL-438-37-PE38KDEL immunotoxin in treating patients who have recurrent malignant astrocytoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the maximum tolerated dose of intratumorally infused IL-438-37-PE38KDEL immunotoxin in patients with recurrent malignant astrocytoma II Determine the safety of this regimen in these patients III Determine preliminarily any efficacy of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose escalation multicenter study Patients undergo a stereotactic biopsy under MRCT guidance Catheters are then placed into the tumor under stereotactic guidance The catheter is filled with IL-438-37-PE38KDEL immunotoxin IL-4 toxin with infusion beginning 24 hours after catheter insertion The IL-4 toxin is infused over 4 days The catheter is removed 45 minutes after the infusion is completed and a MR scan is performed Cohorts of 3 patients each receive escalating doses of IL-4 toxin until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is reached The MTD is defined as the dose preceding the dose at which 2 of 3 patients experience dose limiting toxicity Patients are followed every 4 weeks for 16 weeks then every 8 weeks for up to 3 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL Approximately 30 patients will be accrued for this study
