简要总结
The overall purpose of the study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of ALECSAT in patients with relapse of GlioBlastoma Multiforme (GBM) after first line treatments (followed by reoperation if possible). The efficacy and safety of ALECSAT treatment is, compared to standard Bevacizumab/Irinotecan second line treatments for these patients.
详细描述
This study is an open-label, randomized, prospective, parallel group phase II study with ALECSAT compared to Bevacizumab/Irinotecan in patients with verified relapsed glioblastoma multiforme after or during treatment with recognised first-line treatment. After 62 PFS events have been recorded, an interim analysis will be conducted under the auspices of the Data Monitoring Committee.
The patients in the two treatment groups will be followed for up to 62 weeks by planned study visits. Patients with, at least, stable disease will continue the allocated treatment after the study period as judged by the Investigator. Patients allocated to the Bevacizumab/Irinotecan (control group) will receive their treatment according to standard praxis, i.e. up to 16 treatment cycles with 4 weeks duration. Each cycle of Bevacizumab/Irinotecan consist of 2 dosing days; day 1 and day 15 in the cycle.

研究组 & 干预措施
Alecsat
The experimental product is an autologous product based on the individual patients blood. Blood donation are performed in study weeks 0, 6, 11, 23 and 43.
The patient receives treatment as bolus injection at study weeks 4, 9, 14, 26 and 46.
干预措施: ALECSAT (Biological)
bevacizumab/irinotecan
Patients allocated to the comparator arm will be treated in accordance with standard practice in Denmark for relapsed glioblastoma multiforme, up to 16 treatment cycles with 4 weeks duration
干预措施: Bevacizumab/Irinotecan (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Progression-free survival (PFS)
时间窗: During the study period up to 62 weeks
To compare progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with relapsed GBM when the patients are either treated with ALECSAT immunotherapy or standard praxis therapy with Bevacizumab/Irinotecan. Progression of disease is defined according to the response evaluation criteria for solid tumours (RANO)
次要结局
- Time to progression (TTP)(During the study period up to 62 weeks)
- Quality of Life by European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) questionnaire(During the study period up to 62 weeks)
- Overall survival (OS)(During the study period up to 62 weeks)
- Overall Response Rate (ORR)(During the study period up to 62 weeks)
