The major mechanism of resistance to alkylnitrosourea therapy involves the DNA repair protein O(6)-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT), which removes chloroethylation or methylation damage from the O(6) position of guanine. O(6)-benzylguanine (O(6)-BG) is an AGT substrate that inhibits AGT by suicide inactivation. We conducted a phase I trial of carmustine (BCNU) plus O(6)-BG to define the toxicity and maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of BCNU in conjunction with the preadministration of O(6)-BG with recurrent or progressive malignant glioma.
