The present invention provides a combination therapy using eflomithine (DFMO) and PCV (matulane, lomustine and vincristine) in the treatment of anaplastic gliomas. In contrast to the results seen with glioblastoma multiforme, anaplastic gliomas responded better to the combination of DFMO and PCV than to either the PCV combination or DFMO alone, extending patient survival by approximately two years.
