About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of At-Labeled Anti-Tenascin Human/Mouse Chimeric Monoclonal Antibody 81C6 (ch81C6) Via Surgically Created Cystic Resection Cavity in the Treatment of Patients With Primary or Metastatic Brain Tumors

RATIONALE: Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and deliver radioactive tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. This may be effective treatment for primary or metastatic brain tumors.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of radiolabeled monoclonal antibody therapy in treating patients with primary or metastatic brain tumors.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the toxicity of monoclonal antibody (MAb) Astatine At 211 Antitenascin Human/Mouse Chimeric 81C6 (At 211 MAb 81C6) therapy delivered via the intracranial resection cavity in patients with recurrent primary or metastatic malignant brain tumors.
  • Identify objective therapeutic responses of these patients to this treatment.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study.

Patients undergo surgical resection of their tumor at which time an indwelling intracranial resection cavity catheter is surgically placed. Patients receive one dose of astatine At 211 antitenascin monoclonal antibody 81C6 (At 211 MAb 81C6) via the intralesional catheter.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients are treated at escalating doses of At 211 MAb 81C6. The maximum tolerated dose is the highest dose at which no more than 3 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicity.

Patients are followed initially at 4 weeks, then at approximately 12 weeks, at 24 weeks, and then every 12 weeks for 1 year.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 12-24 patients will be accrued for this study within 18-24 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing surgical procedure and astatine At 211 monoclonal antibody 81C6 in people with Brain and Central Nervous System Tumors and Metastatic Cancer, run by Duke University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Aug 2014.
