- NCT01790503
- Lead Sponsor
- Daiichi Sankyo
- Brief Summary
The study objectives are to assess the potential for PLX3397 to improve the efficacy of standard of care radiation therapy (RT) + temozolomide in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM).
- Detailed Description
Study drug will be administered twice daily for 7 days prior to the initiation of RT (radiation therapy)and will continue twice daily during the course of RT. The RT schedule will be once daily for 5 days per week for 6 weeks (total radiation dose of 60 Gy. Oral temozolomide will be administered once daily (7 days per week) for the duration of RT. Four weeks after the completion of the course of RT, patients will be started on once-daily adjuvant temozolomide (Day 1-5 of a 28 day cycle) and PLX3397 twice daily (28 days of a 28 day cycle) for up to 12 cycles in the absence of progressive disease or unacceptable toxicities. After discontinuation of study drug, patients will continue to be followed for OS every 6 months. For patients participating in the run-in Phase 1b of the study, intra patient dose escalation will be permitted after a RP2D has been established. The Phase 2 portion of the study will enroll patients to be treated with PLX3397 at RP2D.
For the Phase 1b portion of the study, 2 cohorts (800 mg/day and 1000 mg/day) are planned to be enrolled at approximately 7-10 sites. Each cohort will consist of approximately 7 patients. Therefore, a minimum of 14 patients are planned to be enrolled in Phase 1b. Additional patients may be required for replacement patients, or if lower dose cohorts (600 mg or 400 mg) are required. For the Phase 2 portion of the study, enrollment is planned to include approximately 44 patients.

- Prior use of Gliadel wafers or any other intratumoral or intracavitary treatment.
- Prior radiation or chemotherapy for glioblastoma or glioma.
- Prior chemotherapy or radiosensitizers for cancer of the head and neck (except for T1 glottic cancer) that would result in an overlap of radiation fields.
- Prior allergic reaction to temozolomide.
- History of Grade 2 (CTCAE v4) or greater acute intracranial hemorrhage.
- Active cancer (either concurrent or within the last 3 years) that requires non-surgical therapy (e.g. chemotherapy or radiation therapy), with the exception of surgically treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, melanoma in-situ, or carcinoma in-situ of the cervix.
- Chronic active hepatitis B or C.
- Refractory nausea and vomiting, malabsorption, biliary shunt, or significant bowel resection that would preclude adequate absorption of study drug.
- Patients with serious illnesses, uncontrolled infection, medical conditions, or other medical history including abnormal laboratory results, which in the investigator's opinion would be likely to interfere with a patient's participation in the study, or with the interpretation of the results.
- Women of child-bearing potential who are pregnant or breast feeding.
- At Screening QTcF ≥450 msec for males and ≥470 msec for females.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Summary of the Median Progression-free Survival (mPFS) in the Combined 800 mg, 5 Days/Week Dose Group Assessed from date of first dose administered to date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 4 years 4 months. Progression was determined by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria and progression-free survival (PFS) was analyzed based on the non-parametric Kaplan-Meier method.
Summary of the Median Progression-free Survival (mPFS) in the Study Group Compared With Historical Control From Medical Literature Assessed from date of first dose administered to date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 4 years 4 months. mPFS was based on model parameters estimated by maximum likelihood with a Newton-Raphson algorithm. The Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) 0525 study was the main historical control used for statistical analysis. Additionally, RTOG-0825 was also used to support this outcome measure.
