研究概览
简要总结
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vandetanib when given together with radiation therapy in treating young patients with newly diagnosed diffuse brain stem glioma.
详细描述
Vandetanib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving vandetanib together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
Patients undergo conformal radiotherapy once daily, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks. Patients also receive oral vandetanib once daily beginning on the same day as radiotherapy and continuing for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of vandetanib until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined.
Blood samples are collected periodically for pharmacokinetic studies, polymorphism analysis (e.g., CYP3A4/5), and immunological laboratory methods (e.g., western blot assay). Imaging studies are also conducted periodically.

研究组 & 干预措施
Pediatric Diffuse Brainstem Glioma Patients
Patients with newly diagnosed diffuse brainstem gliomas receive vandetanib.
干预措施: vandetanib (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and to determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of vandetanib administered concurrently with radiation therapy (RT) in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed diffuse brainstem glioma.
时间窗: 3 Years
次要结局
- To characterize the pharmacokinetics of vandetanib in pediatric patients(3 Years)
- To determine the toxicities associated with the chronic use of vandetanib in pediatric patients(3 Years)
- To evaluate the influence of specific polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of vandetanib in children(3 Years)
- To prospectively estimate the cumulative incidence of intratumoral hemorrhage in patients with diffuse brainstem glioma treated with vandetanib concurrently with and after RT in the context of a Phase I study(3 Years)
- To prospectively investigate the role of innovative imaging techniques (e.g., perfusion/diffusion, susceptibility-weighted imaging, arterial spin labeling) in assessing the response to therapy, particularly in tumor vascularization and perfusion(3 Years)
- Prospectively assess the number of circulating endothelial cells and circulating endothelial progenitors before the start and during therapy and, if possible, to correlate these findings with tumor response, imaging studies, and other biological assays(3 Years)
