简要总结

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of procarbazine in treating patients who have progressive or recurrent astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma, or glioblastoma multiforme following treatment with radiation therapy.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose of oral procarbazine when administered to patients with recurrent glioma receiving or not receiving anticonvulsants metabolized by the P450 hepatic enzyme complex.
  • Determine the pharmacokinetics of oral procarbazine, including any effects of hepatic enzyme inducing drugs, in these patients.
  • Assess the response rate to procarbazine in these patients.
  • Evaluate this regimen in terms of overall survival and duration of disease free survival in these patients.
  • Evaluate the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: Phase I of this study is a dose escalation study. Patients are stratified according to concurrent use of anticonvulsant drugs that induce cytochrome P450 (yes vs no drugs or modest-induction drugs).

  • Phase I: Patients receive oral procarbazine once daily for 5 days. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 6 patients receive escalating doses of oral procarbazine until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined.
