简要总结
RATIONALE: Rosiglitazone may help pituitary adenoma cells become more like normal cells, and grow and spread more slowly.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well rosiglitazone works in treating patients with newly diagnosed or residual or recurrent pituitary adenoma.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- To assess the effect of rosiglitazone maleate on the core biochemical parameter, 24-hour urinary free cortisol levels, in patients with recurrent or uncured pituitary-dependent Cushing disease. (Group 1)
- To assess the effect of this drug on corticotropin-releasing hormone-stimulated pituitary tumor ACTH secretion in patients with recurrent or uncured pituitary-dependent Cushing disease. (Group 1)
- To assess the effect of this drug on tumor growth in patients with non-secreting pituitary macroadenoma (> 10 mm) using RECIST criteria. (Group 2)
- To assess the effect of this drug on pituitary tumor gonadotropin (i.e., follicle-stimulating hormone, leuteinizing hormone, and alpha-subunit) secretion in patients with non-secreting macroadenoma. (Group 2)
- To assess the overall safety and tolerability of this drug in both cohorts of patients.
- To assess the overall quality of life, in terms of performance status during treatment, of both cohorts of patients using the Karnofsky performance index.
OUTLINE: Patients are grouped according to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-secreting status (yes [Group 1] vs no [Group 2]).
- Group 1 (ACTH-secreting adenomas): Patients receive 4 mg oral rosiglitazone maleate once daily in week 1 and then 8 mg once daily beginning in week 2 and continuing for up to 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
- Group 2 (non-secreting macroadenomas): Patients receive 4 mg oral rosiglitazone maleate once daily in week 1 and then 8 mg once daily beginning in week 2 and continuing for up to 12 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients undergo collection of blood and urine samples at baseline and after completion of study therapy to assess pituitary function, thyroid function, and 24-hour urinary free cortisol levels. Additional assessments include corticotrophin-stimulation testing, dynamic pituitary function testing (i.e., arginine/growth-hormone releasing-hormone testing) to measure growth hormone secretion, and overnight 1 mg dexamethasone suppression testing to measure 8 a.m. serum cortisol levels. Patients also undergo MRI at baseline and after completion of study therapy to examine the effects of rosiglitazone maleate treatment on pituitary tumor size.

入选标准
- •Clinically demonstrable pituitary tumor, including either of the following subtypes:
- •ACTH-secreting adenoma
- •Residual or recurrent disease ≥ 1 month after prior pituitary surgery
- •Clinically demonstrable tumor, as evidenced by both of the following:
- •Elevated 24-hour urinary free cortisol (UFC) level
- •Lack of suppression of 8 a.m. serum cortisol to < 1.8 µg/dL after administration of dexamethasone 1 mg at 11 p.m. the previous night
- •Tumor demonstrated by MRI performed with and without contrast and/or by inferior petrosal sinus sampling with evidence of a central ACTH source.
- •Normal visual field evaluation by Goldman perimetry
- •Hypopituitarism allowed as evidenced by any or all of the following:
- •Subnormal growth hormone (GH) response to arginine/GH-releasing hormone testing (normal response is an increase of 2-6 ng/me)
- •Low age and sex-matched IGF-1 levels
- •Low thyroid-stimulating hormone, free triiodothyronine, and free thyroxine levels
- •Low estradiol levels
- •Low leuteinizing hormone (LH) and low follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in post-menopausal female patients OR low testosterone, LH, and FSH levels in male patients
- •Patients with Cushing disease (i.e., harboring ACTH-secreting pituitary adenomas) must meet the following criteria:
- •Hypercortisolemic (i.e., uncured) despite ≥ 1 pituitary surgery
- •Refuse to undergo pituitary irradiation and/or bilateral adrenalectomy
- •Refuse alternate steroid-lowering therapy such as ketoconazole and/or metyrapone.
- •Negative pregnancy test
- •Fertile patients must use effective contraception for at least 2 months prior to, during, and for 1 month after completion of study therapy.
- •Non-secreting pituitary adenoma
- •Newly diagnosed disease or residual tumor after prior surgical debulking
- •Patients underwent prior surgical debulking must be ≥ 3 months post-surgery
- •More than 10 mm in widest diameter (i.e., macroadenoma), as demonstrated by pituitary MRI performed with and without gadolinium
- •Must be able to undergo pituitary MRI (group 2)
- •More than 2 months since prior blood donation > 400 mL
- •More than 1 month since prior unlicensed drugs or participation in a clinical trial using an investigational drug
- •More than 3 months since prior rosiglitazone maleate or other thiazolidinedione
- •Patients diagnosed with hypopituitarism (except post-menopausal females) are required to initiate hormone-replacement therapy (HRT) for the 6-month duration of the study and to discontinue HRT at the end of 6 months to re-evaluate hypopituitarism
