Intratumorally-administered topotecan using convection-enhanced delivery (CED) in patients with suspected recurrent/progressive High Grade Glioma (HGG) requiring stereotactic biopsy and is focused on investigating topotecan brain tissue distribution and determining the safety, toxicity, and tolerability of intratumorally-administered topotecan.

Distribution of topotecan in tumor tissue
The spatial distribution of intratumorally-administered topotecan will be determined using a gadolinium-based contrast agent, volumetric magnetic resonance imaging, and three-dimensional image reconstruction.
Time frame: Treatment day 1
Number of Adverse Events (AEs) experienced by participants
Time frame: Up to 48 weeks
Extent of topotecan backflow
Investigate the extent to which backflow may be observed on MRI during CED-mediated delivery of topotecan
Time frame: Treatment day 1
