研究组 & 干预措施
Imatinib mesylate + hydroxyurea (HU)
Imatinib was supplied as 100 mg and 400 mg tablets. Patients in the combination arm were instructed to take a daily oral imatinib dose of 600 mg (600 mg at lunch time) and a daily oral hydroxyurea (HU) dose of 1000 mg (500 mg twice daily; in the morning and at bed time). Every 6 weeks after randomization based on assessment of therapeutic response, either patients continued with above mentioned dosing regimen or switched to receive a daily dose of 800 mg imatinib with 1000 mg HU. Patients were instructed to split the intake, taking 400 mg imatinib with 500 mg HU in the morning, then the same in the evening.

干预措施: Hydroxyurea (Drug)
Hydroxyurea alone
1500 mg/day of HU given as 500 mg 3 times daily. Every 6 weeks after randomization and based on assessment of therapeutic response, the patients were either switched to combination arm or continued in monotherapy arm of hydroxyurea.

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Participants With Progression Free Survival (PFS) During the Study Duration
时间窗: 6 months -1 year
PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documented progression according to the MacDonald criteria, or death due to any cause. MacDonald criteria are standard criteria in neurooncology. Tumor assessment was made according to the adapted MacDonald criteria based on the combined evaluation of 1) assessment of the MRI scan for measurable, evaluable, and new lesions (made by the independent external expert too), 2) overall assessment of neurological performance (made by the investigator), 3) concomitant steroid use (as reported by the investigator).
次要结局
- Number of Participants With Death, Other Serious or Clinically Significant Adverse Events (AEs) or Related Discontinuations(6 months - 1 year)
