Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop
the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
Collecting fluid samples through a catheter may help doctors find out how well temozolomide
spreads throughout the brain.
PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying temozolomide in treating patients with primary brain
tumors or metastatic brain tumors.
