简要总结

Background:

  • Radiation therapy with temozolomide (an anti-cancer drug) is standard therapy for treating brain tumors called glioblastomas.
  • The drug valproic acid, currently approved for treating seizures, has been shown in laboratory tests to increase the radiosensitivity of glioma cells.

Objectives:

-To determine the effectiveness of adding valproic acid to standard treatment with radiation therapy and temozolomide for treating glioblastoma.

Eligibility:

-Patients 18 years of age and older with glioblastoma multiforme who have not been previously treated with chemotherapy of radiation.

Design:

  • This Phase II trial will enroll 41 patients.
  • Patients will receive radiation therapy to the brain once a day, Monday through Friday, for 6 1/2 weeks.
  • Patients will take temozolomide once a day by mouth, Monday through Friday, during the period of radiation treatment. Starting 4 weeks after radiation therapy, patients will take temozolomide once a day for 5 days every 28 days for a total of six cycles.
  • Patients will receive valproic acid by mouth twice a day beginning 1 week prior to the first day of radiation therapy and continuing until the completion of chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
  • Patients will have follow-up visits 1 month after completing therapy, then every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 3 years. Follow-up includes a physical examination, blood tests and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain.

详细描述

BACKGROUND:

  • Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have recently been shown to enhance the radiosensitivity of glioma cells both in vitro and in vivo.
  • Valproic acid has also recently been demonstrated to be a potent HDAC.
  • Valproic acid has a long clinical history in patients with and without brain tumors and is known to cross the blood-brain barrier. However, the use of valproic acid in combination with temozolomide and radiotherapy for patients with high-grade gliomas has never been tested.

OBJECTIVES:

-The primary measure of efficacy will be progression free survival and overall survival.

结局指标

主要结局

Percentage of Participants With Overall Survival at 6, 12, and 24 Months

时间窗: 6, 12, and 24 months

Percentage of participants who were alive at 6, 12, and 24 months.

Percentage of Participants With Progression Free Survival at 6, 12, and 24 Months

时间窗: 6, 12, and 24 months

Percentage of participants who were progression free by 6, 12, or 24 months. Progressive disease is a \>25% increase in contrast enhancing tumor volume documented at the initiation of treatment on protocol.

Number of Participants With Best Response

时间窗: up to 63.8 months

Best response recorded from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence. Complete response is complete resolution of all contrast enhancing tumor documented at initiation of treatment on protocol, with no appearance of new lesions. Partial response is a \>50% reduction in the contrast enhancing tumor volume documented at the initiation of treatment on protocol. Minor response is a \>25%, but \<50% reduction in the contrast enhancing tumor volume documented at the initiation of treatment on protocol. Stable disease is a change in tumor size less than MR but not demonstrating progressive disease. Progressive disease is a \>25% increase in contrast enhancing tumor volume documented at the initiation of treatment on protocol. Not evaluable means the participant cannot be evaluated (e.g., quality of scan).

Median Overall Survival

时间窗: up to 63.8 months

Survival is the interval from the initiation of treatment on protocol to date of death.

Median Progression Free Survival.

时间窗: up to 51 months

Progression free survival is the interval from initiation of treatment on protocol to symptomatic or radiographic progression. Progressive disease is a \>25% increase in contrast enhancing tumor volume documented at the initiation of treatment on protocol.

次要结局

  • Number of Participants With Adverse Events(6 years, 7 months and 27 days)
