Trial summary

RATIONALE: Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radioactive drugs, such as iobenguane I 131, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Giving vorinostat together with iobenguane I 131 may kill more tumor cells.

Who cannot join

  • They have had treatment with 131I-MIBG before.
  • They have had prior treatment with vorinostat or other HDAC inhibitor.
  • They have had a stem cell transplant using another person as the stem cell donor. (You can still be in the study if a previous transplant used your own stem cells)
  • They have other medical problems that could get much worse if they had this treatment.
  • They are on dialysis for bad kidney function.
  • They have a history of unexplained blood clot, pulmonary embolus, thrombotic stroke, or arterial clot.
Show all 10Show fewer
  • They are pregnant or breast feeding.

About this study

Official title: Vorinostat With 131-I MIBG Therapy for Resistant/Relapsed Neuroblastoma: A Phase I Study IND# 105,744

RATIONALE: Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radioactive drugs, such as iobenguane I 131, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Giving vorinostat together with iobenguane I 131 may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving vorinostat together with iobenguane I 131 in treating patients with resistant or relapsed neuroblastoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To determine the maximum tolerated dose of vorinostat in combination with iobenguane I 131 in patients with resistant or relapsed neuroblastoma.
  • To define the toxicities of vorinostat in combination with therapeutic doses of iobenguane I 131 in these patients.

Secondary

  • To describe, within the context of a phase I study, the response rate in patients treated with vorinostat and iobenguane I 131.
  • To describe histone acetylation levels and norepinephrine transporter mRNA levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells after treatment with different doses of vorinostat.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral vorinostat once daily on days 1-14 and iobenguane I 131 IV over 1½-2 hours on day 3. Patients undergo autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation on day 17.

Blood samples may be collected periodically for correlative biological studies.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • VorinostatDrug

    Also called SAHA, Suberoylanili de hydroxamic acid., Zolinza

    Patients on study will receive vorinostat orally once daily on days 1 to 14 of treatment.This is a single course treatment. The study has a planned dose escalation schedule, the starting dose level is 180 mg/M2.The maximum absolute dose of vorinostat is 400 mg.

  • 131- I MetaiodobenzylguanidineRadiation

    Also called 131-I MIBG, Iobenguane I 131

    Patients will receive 131-I MIBG on day 3 , one hour after vorinostat dosing.Patients will initially receive 8 mCi/kg 131-I MIBG with 180 mg/m2/dose vorinostat. The dose of 131-I MIBG will be escalated in subsequent cohorts to 15 mCi/kg and then to 18 mCi/kg.If the starting dose exceeds the maximum tolerated dose, patients will be treated with a lowering of vorinostat dose initially (150 mg/m2/day . Dose level -1). If this combination still exceeds the maximum tolerated dose, then a dose level using reduced dose 131-I MIBG will be studied (6 mCi/kg. Dose level -2).

  • Peripheral Blood Stem Cell InfusionProcedure or surgery

    Also called PBSC, Peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT), Autologous bone marrow transplant (ABMT), Hemopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT)

    Stem cell infusion is planned for 2 weeks after MIBG infusion (day 17). However, stem cells may be infused on day 18 or day 19 to avoid weekend or holiday stem cell infusions.The dose for Purged PBSC is a minimum of 2 x 106 viable CD34+ cells/kg and for Unpurged PBSC: a minimum of 2 x 106 viable CD34+ cells/kg must be available. Stem cells must be infused over 15-30 minutes and within 1.5 hours of thawing.Stem cells will be infused following institutional guidelines for prophylaxis of hypersensitivity reactions and monitoring.

  • FilgrastimDrug

    Also called G-CSF, Neupogen

    All patients will receive filgrastim following hematopoietic stem cell infusion according to institutional guidelines (section 4.2.3 of protocol).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. All toxicities , including dose limiting toxicities, of the combination of vorinostat with therapeutic doses of 131-I MIBG

    All toxicities observed will be summarized in terms of type (organ affected or laboratory determination), severity (by NCI CTCAE) and attribution. Tables will be created to summarize these toxicities and side effects by dose level and by course.

    Measured: From day 1 of vorinostat therapy to 56 days after stem cell re-infusion

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Response evaluation , within the context of a phase I study.

    Eligible patients with measurable or evaluable disease who receive 131-I MIBG are evaluable for response even if they fail to complete the course of therapy because of disease progression. Responses will be described for all patients registered on the study even if there are major protocol deviations .

    Measured: At study entry, 56 days after stem cell re-infusion (end of therapy).

  2. Histone acetylation levels and norepinephrine transported mRNA levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells after treatment with different doses of vorinostat.

    Collection of samples for correlative biology is optional and not required for study entry. Although these studies are not mandated, all institutions are strongly urged to submit specimens for all consenting patients.

    Measured: Baseline, Pre-day 3 , Post-day 3, Day 12, 13 or 14.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Vorinostat, 131- I Metaiodobenzylguanidine and Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Infusion in people with Neuroblastoma, run by New Approaches to Neuroblastoma Therapy Consortium at 12 sites 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?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. 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 10 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites 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 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.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

All toxicities , including dose limiting toxicities, of the combination of vorinostat with therapeutic doses of 131-I MIBG (time frame: From day 1 of vorinostat therapy to 56 days after stem cell re-infusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 10 Apr 2023.
