The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good or bad, the experimental device, NovoTTF-100A has on patients with meningioma. This study is being done because currently there are no proveneffective medical treatments for a progressive meningioma that has failed surgery and/or radiation. The NovoTTF-100A System is a portable medical device. It delivers electric fields called TTFields to the brain using transducer arrays which are sticky pads placed on the scalp. TTFields are intended to kill cancer cells..
