Overview

Brief Summary

IPILIMUMAB Extended Access Program for patients who received chemotherapy and / or radiation therapy before the protocol, before or after the operation.

Detailed Description

It is not yet known which protocols are a better treatment for glioblastoma or glioma.

The ipilimumab extended-access program for patients who received previous chemotherapy and / or radiation therapy by protocol, before ((for non-operable cases) or after the operation.

Monoclonal antibodies of CTLA-4, such as ipilimumab, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells and activating the patient's immune system to fight the disease.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Glioblastoma.
  • Glioma Brain.
  • Male or female subjects aged ≥18 years.
  • Histopathological evidence of glioblastoma or glioma.
  • Patients still alive must provide informed consent if required by local regulations
  • Maximal tumor diameter (including residual tumor and resection cavity if subjects had tumor resection rather than only stereotactic biopsy) up to 7cm or less.
  • Karnofsky performance status (Appendix 2) of ≥
  • Availability of a paraffin-embedded or frozen tumor-tissue block with a minimum of 0.5 cm2 and 5 unstained slides from the glioblastoma or glioma tissue specimen.
  • Not earlier than 35 days after surgery.
  • An interval of at least 2 week for stereotactic biopsy from the start of study treatment.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Prior systemic treatment anti-CTLA-4 antibody, or any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T-cell costimulation or immune checkpoint pathways.
  • Planned participation in another study intended for therapy of glioma or glioblastoma.
  • Primary brainstem or spinal cord tumor.
  • Diffuse leptomeningeal gliomatosis.
  • Сonfirmed mutation of the IDH1/2 genes.
  • Stem or dendritic cell therapy 60 days before the program or 45 days after the last infusion of ipilimumab.
  • Systemic treatment with either immunosuppressive doses of corticosteroids (\> 10 mg daily prednisone equivalents) or other immunosuppressive medications within 21 days of study drug administration.
  • Patients on a standard high-dose steroid taper after craniotomy or stereotactic biopsy may have received a higher dose of corticosteroids within 21 days of registration, however must be at a dose \< 5 mg daily prednisone or bioequivalent per day within 7 days prior to initiation of study drug.
  • Patients requiring adrenal replacement with corticosteroids are eligible if the steroids are at doses ≤ 10 mg prednisone or bioequivalent per day in the absence of active autoimmune disease.
  • Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., CT scan premedication) are allowed.
