We describe the response to a new chemotherapy agent, topoisomerase I inhibitor edotecarin in an 18-year-old woman with recurring glioblastoma. The therapy was administered for 17 months. The radiological partial response and clinical improvement have been achieved, with minor toxicity. Median survival of patients with glioblastoma is 10 months. With edotecarin we have achieved promising result, which should encourage further investigations to develop more efficient therapy for such a deadly disease.
