- Platelets ≥ 100,000 /mm3
- Total white blood cell (WBC) ≥ 2,500 cells /mm3
- Total bilirubin ≤ 2.5 mg/dL
- AST ≤ 4 x ULN
- ALT ≤ 4 x ULN
- ALP ≤ 5 x ULN
- Creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dL
- GFR ≥ 30 ml/min/1.73m2
- Patient with no or mild organ impairment
- Patients who are eligible and able to participate in the study and accept to enter the study by signing written informed consent forms
- Patients agrees not to use food supplementary or dietary that contains Angelica sinensis after Screening Visit to Day 21
- All male patients and female patients with child-bearing potential (between puberty and 2 years after menopause) should use appropriate contraception method(s) for at least 4 weeks after Cerebraca wafer treatment and TMZ treatment (whichever is longer) shown below.
- Total abstinence (when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception).

- Combination of any two of the following (a+b or a+c, or b+c):
- Use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception or other forms of hormonal contraception that have comparable efficacy (failure rate \<1%), for example hormone vaginal ring or transdermal hormone contraception.
- Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS).
- Barrier methods of contraception: Condom or Occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps) with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/vaginal suppository.
- Phase IIa The inclusion criteria for Phase IIa is the same as in Phase I

- Patient who has participated in other investigational studies within 4 weeks prior to receive Cerebraca wafer
- Patient with known or suspected hypersensitivity to Cerebraca wafer, TMZ or the excipient
- Patient has tumor that cannot be surgically removed without significantly affecting vital function
- Patient's glioma locates in the area that is not suitable for Cerebraca wafer implantation
- Patient has external-beam radiation therapy within 4 weeks before study entry
- Patient has other severe and/or life-threatening disease(s) with life expectancy less than 12 months
- Patient has immuno-compromised condition, or is with known autoimmune conditions or is human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) seropositive.
- Patient with medical, social or psychological factors interfering with compliance of the study
- Patient has on-going moderate to severe organ impairment other than study indication that may confound the efficacy evaluation, safety evaluation or usage of TMZ
- At Phase I, patient is planning to use strong cytochrome P450 modulator.
