Cediranib Maleate With or Without Gefitinib in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Progressive Glioblastoma

Phase 2
Terminated
Conditions
Glioblastoma
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01310855
Lead Sponsor
University College, London
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Cediranib Maleate and gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether cediranib maleate given together with gefitinib is more effective than cediranib maleate given alone in treating patients with recurrent or progressive glioblastoma.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving cediranib maleate together with gefitinib and to see how well it works compared with giving cediranib maleate together with a placebo in treating patients with recurrent or progressive glioblastoma.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* To compare progression-free survival, overall survival, radiological response, and safety and tolerability of cediranib maleate in combination with gefitinib versus cediranib maleate in combination with a placebo in patients with recurrent or progressive glioblastoma following standard front-line treatment.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive cediranib maleate and gefitinib or cediranib maleate and a placebo once daily on days 1-42. Courses repeat every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Blood and tissue samples are collected from some patients for genetic profiling and biomarker analysis.

Cediranib & Gefitinibcediranib maleateCediranib maleate 30mg od orally and gefitinib 500mg od orally. Each cycle of treatment lasts 6 weeks. Treatment will continue until confirmation of progression, patient decision or the development of unacceptable toxicity (if there is radiological progression only treatment can continue if the investigator has the opinion that the patient is receiving benefit.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression-free Survivalfrom the date of randomisation to the date of first progression or death due to any cause, until 6 months from the date the last patient finished trial treatment (the day after the date that the last trial drug was taken)

Progression free survival (PFS) defined as the time from the date of randomisation to the date of first progression or death due to any cause, whichever one comes first.

The progression definition will be based on modified RANO criteria (Wen 2010), such that progression will be defined as the earliest time that at least one of the following occurs:

1. Clinical deterioration

2. Failure to return for evaluation as a result of death or deteriorating condition

Or, by retrospective radiographic central review:

3. Any new lesion

4. Increase in ≥25% of sum of the products of perpendicular diameters of enhancing lesions compared with baseline scan, on stable or increasing doses of steroids (dexamethasone) compared to baseline (T1 post-contrast scan)

5. Clear progression of non-measureable disease

6. Significant increase in T2/FLAIR non-enhancing lesion - on stable or increasing steroids (dexamethasone) compared with baseline or best response not caused by co-morbid events.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety and Tolerabilityfrom date of randomisation to death
Overall Survivalfrom date of randomization to date of Death due to any cause.
Radiographic Response Ratefrom baseline scan to six week and 12 week scans
Progression-free Survival Rate at 6 Monthsfrom the date of randomisation to 6 months
Steroid Usefrom randomization to first increase in dexamethasone dose
Time to Deterioration of Neurological Statusfrom date of randomization to the date of first neurological status worsening in comparison to baseline (first of 2 confirmatory reports at 2 consecutive visits, 6 weeks apart) as assessed by the clinician, or until date of death, whichever is first.
