Summary

RATIONALE: The TP-38 toxin can locate tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. Giving TP-38 toxin directly into the tumor may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of TP-38 toxin administered directly into the brain and to see how well it works in treating young patients with recurrent or progressive supratentorial high-grade glioma.
