Ph I Gleevec in Combo w RAD001 + Hydroxyurea for Pts w Recurrent MG

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Glioblastoma
Gliosarcoma
Interventions
Drug: Gleevec, RAD001, and Hydroxyurea
Registration Number
NCT00613132
Lead Sponsor
Annick Desjardins
Brief Summary

Primary objective To determine maximum tolerated dose \& dose limiting toxicity of imatinib mesylate \& RAD001 when combined w fixed doses of hydroxyurea among pts w recurrent GBM who are on \& not on enzyme-inducing anti-convulsants including pts not on anti-epileptic drugs Secondary objective To assess safety \& tolerability of imatinib mesylate in combo w RAD001 \& hydroxyurea in this population To characterize single-dose \& repeated-dose pharmacokinetic profiles of imatinib mesylate \& RAD001 combo therapy in this pt population.

To assess antiangiogenic effects, pre- and post-treatment, of imatinib mesylate, RAD001 \& hydroxyurea combo therapy, using DCE-MRI to evaluate changes in extent of vascular permeability, perfusion \& relative tumor blood volume; to explore assessment of tumor cellularity \& tumor cell death by changes in DWI-MRI as quantitated by apparent diffusion coefficient maps.

Detailed Description

This is open-label, single center, 1-arm ph I dose-escalation study of continuous, daily doses of imatinib mesylate \& RAD001 administered orally in combination w fixed doses of hydroxyurea in adult pts w recurrent or relapsing glioblastoma multiforme. Study format includes classical "3+3" dose escalation design to determine MTD \& DLT of imatinib mesylate + RAD001 when combined w hydroxyurea among GBM pts. Pts will be stratified based on whether they who are receiving EIACD \& each stratum will independently dose escalate. Additionally, study will characterize safety, tolerability, biologic activity, \& pharmacokinetic profile of this combo therapy.
