研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, of treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma using Gamma-Knife Radiosurgery (GKS) to target a tumor volume defined by a combination of gadolinium enhancement and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). This is a single center, Phase II trial. A total of 40 glioblastoma patients will be enrolled into the primary arm of the trial. In addition, a minimum of 10 patients with recurrent anaplastic (grade III) gliomas and a minimum of 10 patients with recurrent low-grade (grade II) gliomas will be enrolled into exploratory arms.
The investigators hypothesize that the use of a combination of gadolinium enhancement and elevated Cho:NAA ratio via MRS to determine the treatment target volume for Gamma Knife may be an effective way to treat focally-recurrent glioblastoma.
详细描述
Study Design: A single-center, single-arm, one-stage phase II clinical trial for patients with recurrent grade IV glioma (glioblastoma), with two additional exploratory arms for patients with recurrent grade II and grade III gliomas.
Patient Numbers: A total of 40 patients with recurrent glioblastoma will be enrolled. In addition, a minimum of 10 patients with recurrent grade III (anaplastic) glioma and a minimum of 10 patients with recurrent grade II (low-grade) glioma will be enrolled independently into separate exploratory arms.
Summary of Patient Eligibility Criteria Histological confirmation of glioma, grades II - IV; prior first-line treatment with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy for malignant (grades III and IV) gliomas; age > 18 years; life expectancy >8 weeks; Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 60; adequate organ function; signed patient informed consent; willingness to forego additional therapy until evidence of disease progression.
End Points
Primary: Six-month progression-free survival (PFS-6)

入选标准
- •Histologically confirmed glioblastoma, gliosarcoma, anaplastic astrocytoma, anaplastic oligodendroglioma, anaplastic oligoastrocytoma, malignant glioma not otherwise specified, low-grade astrocytoma, low-grade oligodendroglioma, low-grade oligoastrocytoma, or low-grade glioma not otherwise specified.
- •Prior first-line treatment with surgery or biopsy followed by fractionated radiotherapy with concurrent temozolomide-containing chemotherapy is required for malignant (grade III or IV) glioma patients. Additional prior chemotherapy is allowed, without limitation on number of recurrences. In patients with low-grade tumors, neither prior radiotherapy nor prior chemotherapy is required.
- •An interval of > 2 months since completion of fractionated radiotherapy.
- •Age > 18 years
- •Life expectancy of at least 8 weeks.
- •Karnofsky Performance Status score (KPS) of ≥ 60
- •Documented recurrent disease: Recurrent disease is defined either as histological confirmation of tumor, as an increase in tumor size of at least 25% based upon serial MR images, or as development of a new site of disease.
- •Tumor size will be calculated using the sum of the largest cross-sectional perpendicular diameters of contrast-enhancing tumor for high-grade tumors, the sum of the largest cross-sectional perpendicular diameters of FLAIR abnormality for low-grade tumors, or as worsened spectroscopic characteristics for any tumor type (development of ≥ 2 new voxels with CNI ≥ 3, or ≥ 25% increase in the sum of the CNI ratios within a group of previously abnormal voxels [where abnormal is defined as CNI ≥ 3]).
- •Disease must be evaluable, but does not need to be measurable.
- •The target site for GKS does not need to be located in a previously-irradiated area.
- •Eligibility for gamma-knife radiosurgery: The decision to treat with gamma-knife radiosurgery will be made by a consensus of the radiation oncology, neurosurgery and neuro-oncology co-chairs or their alternates at the weekly Brain Tumor or Gamma-Knife Tumor Conferences. The MRS defined target volume must be ≤ 15 cc. and not involving eloquent brain (speech/language cortex, motor/sensory cortex, basal ganglia, brainstem, or corpus callosum 2) on an MRI done within 14 days of the planned GKS procedure.
- •BUN < 25 and Cr < 1.7
- •Negative pregnancy test at the time of GKS in any patient who could be pregnant.
- •Willingness to forego additional therapy until evidence of disease progression.
- •Signed and witnessed informed consent and signed authorization for the release of their protected health information.
排除标准
- •MRS defined tumor volume greater than 15 cc.
- •MRS defined tumor volume involving eloquent brain (speech/language cortex, motor/sensory cortex, basal ganglia, brainstem, or corpus callosum).
- •Concurrent treatment with chemotherapy.
- •Active infectious process requiring IV antibiotics.
- •History of any other cancer (except non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in-situ of the cervix), unless in complete remission and off of all therapy for that disease for a minimum of three years.
- •Other major medical illness judged by the investigator to preclude prolonged follow-up.
- •Any condition that compromises compliance with the objectives and procedures of this protocol, as judged by the principal investigator.
