简要总结
This study is to determine if an oral drug called Ramipril can lower the chance of memory loss in patients with glioblastoma getting chemoradiation. Patients will take Ramipril during chemoradiation and continue until 4 months post-treatment. Memory loss will be assessed using several neurocognitive tests throughout the duration of the study.
详细描述
This is a pilot study of an oral drug Ramipril to prevent cognitive decline in glioblastoma patients receiving partial brain radiation and concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide . Ramipril will be titrated to the highest tolerable dose during chemoradiation (2.5-5 mg). Once this dose is determined, the patient will continue at this dose for 4 months after the completion of chemoradiation. Patients will be followed until 5 months post chemoradiation for compliance, toxicity, cognitive decline and participant reported outcomes (PRO).

- •Patients planning to receive therapeutic antitumor agents (excluding use of the Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields or Optune®) device after the Month 1 Post RT (10 wk) Neurocognitive-PRO assessment.) in addition to standard radiation and concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide are not eligible to participate in this study.
- •Patients with impaired decision-making capacity; this exclusion is necessary because such patients may not be able to adequately give informed consent.
- •Pregnant or lactating women, due to possible adverse effect on the developing fetus or infant due to study drug.
- •For patients who will be treated with the Optune® device in addition to standard of care radiation plus concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide, the following exclusion criteria also apply:

- •Patients being treated with Memantine, Donepezil, and/or medications prescribed to enhance cognition.

Efficacy of Ramipril of Neurocognitive Function at Baseline - Shipley Institute of Living Scale-Version 2 Vocabulary
时间窗: Baseline
Shipley Institute of Living Scale provides an assessment of premorbid intellectual functioning comparable to a verbal IQ and thus is a proxy for cognitive reserve. This vocabulary test requires respondents to read a target word and select one of four words that most closely means the same thing. The score is total correct of 40 items (0-40). Higher scores indicate a better outcome.
Change From Baseline Neurocognitive Function at 10 Weeks - Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R) Total Recall Standardized Score
时间窗: Baseline,10 weeks
HVLT-R measures verbal learning and memory. It consists of a 12-item word list which is read to subjects on three successive learning trials. Free recall scores are recorded for each learning trial. Scores for immediate recall (total of three trials), delayed recall (total number of words recalled after 20 minutes), and recognition (total number of words correctly identified) will be the variables derived from the HVLT-R. A raw score (0-36) for part A Total Recall is calculated as the total number of words correctly recalled amongst the three trials. Test scores are presented as standardized z scores (mean=0, sd=1) with infinite range. Higher standardized scores indicate better neurocognitive function. Change in standardized scores are compared with results from the control arm of RTOG0825 (NCT00884741).
Change From Baseline Neurocognitive Function at 10 Weeks - Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R) Delayed Recall Standardized Score
时间窗: Baseline,10 weeks
HVLT-R measures verbal learning and memory. It consists of a 12-item word list which is read to subjects on three successive learning trials. Free recall scores are recorded for each learning trial. Scores for immediate recall (total of three trials), delayed recall (total number of words recalled after 20 minutes), and recognition (total number of words correctly identified) will be the variables derived from the HVLT-R. A raw score (0-12) for part B Delayed Recall is calculated as the number of words correctly recalled. Test scores are presented as standardized z scores (mean=0, sd=1) with infinite range. Higher standardized scores indicate better neurocognitive function. Change in standardized scores are compared with results from the control arm of RTOG0825 (NCT00884741).
Change From Baseline Neurocognitive Function at 10 Weeks - Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R) Delayed Recognition Standardized Score
时间窗: Baseline,10 weeks
HVLT-R measures verbal learning and memory. It consists of a 12-item word list which is read to subjects on three successive learning trials. Free recall scores are recorded for each learning trial. Scores for immediate recall (total of three trials), delayed recall (total number of words recalled after 20 minutes), and recognition (total number of words correctly identified) will be the variables derived from the HVLT-R. A raw score (-12-12) for part C Delayed Recognition is calculated as the number of incorrectly identified words subtracted from the number of correctly identified words. Test scores are presented as standardized z scores (mean=0, sd=1) with infinite range. Higher standardized scores indicate better neurocognitive function. Change in standardized scores are compared with results from the control arm of RTOG0825 (NCT00884741).
Change From Baseline Neurocognitive Function at 10 Weeks - Trail Making Test Part A (TMT A) Standardized Score
时间窗: Baseline,10 weeks
Part A of the TMT measures attention and visual motor skills and processing speed and requires subjects to connect 25 numbered circles in the proper sequence (1-2-3-…) as quickly as possible. The raw score for TMT-A is the total time in seconds required to complete the task. Scores can also be generated for number of errors and number of circles correctly connected. If the assessment was not completed in the allotted time, a prorated score was calculated based on the last completed correct circle. Final prorated raw scores of total time were at least 0 seconds with no maximum limit. Test scores are presented as standardized z scores (mean=0, sd=1) with infinite range. Higher standardized scores indicate better neurocognitive function. Change in standardized scores are compared with results from the control arm of RTOG0825 (NCT00884741).
Change From Baseline Neurocognitive Function at 10 Weeks - Trail Making Test Part B (TMT B) Standardized Score
时间窗: Baseline,10 weeks
TMT-B requires subjects to connect 25 dots in an alternating numerical and alphabetical sequence (1-A-2-B-…). TMT-B with its added complexity and set shifting requirements is a widely used measure of executive function. The raw score TMT-B is the total time in seconds required to complete the task. If the assessment was not completed in the allotted time, a prorated score was calculated based on the last completed correct circle. Final prorated raw scores of total time were at least 0 seconds with no maximum limit. Test scores are presented as standardized z scores (mean=0, sd=1) with infinite range. Higher standardized scores indicate better neurocognitive function. Change in standardized scores are compared with results from the control arm of RTOG0825 (NCT00884741).
Change From Baseline Neurocognitive Function at 10 Weeks - Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWA) Standardized Scores
时间窗: Baseline,10 weeks
The COWA measures speed of mental processing, verbal fluency, and executive function. Subjects are asked to name as many words as possible all beginning with a specified letter. A total of three trials are administered, each with a different letter. The raw score on the COWA (0-87) is the total number of words named across the three trials minus repetitions. Test scores are presented as standardized z scores (mean=0, sd=1) with infinite range. Higher standardized scores indicate better neurocognitive function. Change in standardized scores are compared with results from the control arm of RTOG0825 (NCT00884741).
