Prolonged methotrexate infusions in children with acute leukemia in relapse and in remission and with medulloblastoma. Pharmacokinetics, toxicity and clinical results.

abstract：PURPOSE:Preclinical studies indicated that imatinib may have single-agent activity in glioblastoma through inhibition of tyrosine kinase activity and also that it might enhance the efficacy of radiotherapy. We therefore sought to investigate clinical efficacy in patients with newly diagnosed and recurrent glioblastoma ...
