About this study

Official title: Phase II Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of AMG 102 and Avastin in Subjects With Recurrent Malignant Glioma

The primary purpose of the study is to assess the response rate of AMG 102 and Avastin treatment in subjects with advanced malignant glioma. Secondary objectives are to estimate overall survival and 6-month progression-free survival rates in this population and to assess the safety of this combination in this population.

Patients must have recurrent histologically confirmed diagnosis of World Health Organization (WHO) grade IV malignant glioma (glioblastoma multiforme or gliosarcoma) with no more than 3 prior progressions. Subjects will receive Avastin and AMG 102 every two weeks. Avastin will be administered prior to AMG 102. Up to 36 adult subjects will take part in this study at Duke.

In initial Phase I and II clinical trials, four potential Avastin-associated safety issues were identified: hypertension, proteinuria, thromboembolic events, and hemorrhage. The most common side effect for AMG 102 have been nausea and fatigue.

What participants receive

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

  • AMG 102Drug

    Also called rilotumumab

    AMG 102 will be administered as a continuous intravenous infusion by an infusion pump at 20 mg/kg every 2 weeks over 60 or 30 minutes.

  • AvastinDrug

    Also called Bevacizumab

    Avastin will be administered as a continuous intravenous infusion at 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks (6-week study cycle) over 60 or 30 minutes. Avastin will be given prior to AMG 102.

What is being measured

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

  1. Radiographic Response

    The percentage of participants with a complete or partial response as determined by modified Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria will be determined. Complete Response (CR) is defined as complete disappearance on MR/CT of all enhancing tumor and mass effect, off all corticosteroids (or receiving only adrenal replacement doses) and accompanied by a stable or improving neurologic examination. Partial Response (PR) is defined as greater than or equal to 50% reduction in tumor size on MR/CT by bi-dimensional measurement, on a stable or decreasing dose of corticosteroids and accompanied by a stable or improving neurologic examination. Tumor assessments are done at baseline and the end of every 6-week cycle thereafter.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Median Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival is defined as the time in months from the start of protocol treatment until the date of death, or the date of last follow-up if alive. Kaplan-Meier methods will be used to estimate overall survival.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Six-month Progression-free Survival (PFS6)

    The percentage of participants alive and progression-free at 6 months after the start of study treatment will be determined. PFS6 will be calculated from the date study treatment started until the date of progression or death, or the date of last follow-up if participants are alive without progression. Kaplan-Meier methods will be used to estimate survival.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Percentage of Participants Who Experience Treatment-related Grade 2 or Greater CNS Hemorrhage or Grade 4 or Greater Non-hematologic Toxicities

    The percentage of participants who experience unacceptable toxicity, defined as any treatment-related grade 2 or greater CNS hemorrhage or grade 4 or greater non-hematologic toxicity, will be calculated.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AMG 102 and Avastin in people with Glioblastoma Multiforme and Gliosarcoma, run by Katy Peters 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?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 37 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 Dec 2015. 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 phase mean?

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Dec 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Radiographic Response (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01113398, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Dec 2015.
