Dose Confirmation Study of Cotara for the Treatment of Glioblastoma Multiforme at First Relapse
- Conditions
- Glioblastoma Multiforme
- Interventions
- Drug: 131I-chTNT-1/B MAb (Cotara)
- Registration Number
- NCT00677716
- Lead Sponsor
- Peregrine Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
Cotara® is an experimental new treatment that links a radioactive isotope (iodine 131) to a targeted monoclonal antibody. This monoclonal antibody is designed to bind tumor cells and deliver radiation directly to the center of the tumor mass while minimizing effects on normal tissues. Cotara® thus literally destroys the tumor "from the inside out". This may be an effective treatment for glioblastoma multiforme, a malignant type of brain cancer.
- Detailed Description
To confirm the safety and tolerability of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of 131I-chTNT-1/B MAb given as a single interstitial infusion in patients with glioblastoma multiforme at first relapse.
To estimate overall survival, progression free survival and proportion of patients alive at six months after treatment.
