Lapatinib in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme
- Conditions
- Brain and Central Nervous System Tumors
- Registration Number
- NCT00099060
- Lead Sponsor
- National Cancer Institute (NCI)
- Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Lapatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth.
PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of lapatinib and to see how well it works in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.
- Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
Phase I
* Determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase II dose of lapatinib in patients with recurrent malignant glioblastoma multiforme who are taking CYP3A4 enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic drugs (EIAEDs).
* Determine the toxic effects of this drug in these patients.
* Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug in these patients.
Phase II
* Determine the efficacy of this drug, in terms of objective tumor response rate, in patients who are taking EIAEDs and in those who are not taking EIAEDs.
* Correlate immunohistochemical measures of cellular proteins and receptors from tumor samples with anti-tumor activity of this drug in these patients.
* Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, open-label, phase I, dose-escalation study followed by a phase II study.
* Phase I: Patients receive oral lapatinib twice daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of lapatinib until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.
* Phase II: Patients receive lapatinib as in phase I at the MTD. Patients are followed at 1 month and then periodically for survival. Patients with stable or responding disease who go off therapy are followed every 3 months for up to one year and then periodically thereafter for survival.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 3-24 patients will be accrued for the phase I portion of this study within 18 months. A total of 15-30 patients will be accrued for the phase II portion of this study within 18 months.
