Al's Comment:

 This is a trial for recurrent glioblastoma patients who have failed Temodar and Avastin.  There is another trial of Val-083 for newly diagnosed MGMT unmethylated patients.  Val-083 is a chemotherapy similar  to Temodar but works at a different location on the DNA of the tumor cells.  It should theoretically not be affected by the MGMT status and may work even when the tumor is resistant to Temodar
