About this study

Official title: A Pilot Phase II Trial of Hypofractionated Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (Hypo-IMRT) Combining With Temozolomide (TMZ) and Bevacizumab for Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM)

The purpose of this study is to find out whether Hypofractionated Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (Hypo-IMRT) combining with temozolomide chemotherapy can be safely given with a targeted agent, bevacizumab, and how effective this study treatment will be in controlling your brain tumor.

Read the detailed description

This is a pilot phase II trial of the combination of concurrent hypofractionated IMRT (60 Gy/2 weeks), temozolomide and bevacizumab followed by 6 cycles of adjuvant bevacizumab and temozolomide in patients with grade IV malignant gliomas (glioblastoma and gliosarcoma). The study will have survival and toxicity endpoints.

Being tested
Bevacizumab, Temozolomide, RT (Radiation Therapy)

What participants receive

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

  • BevacizumabDrug

    Also called Avastin

    Bevacizumab will be administered at 10 mg/kg on day 1 and day 15. Four to six weeks following completion of concurrent IMRT, TMZ and bevacizumab, patients will receive 6 cycles of Bevacizumab.

  • TemozolomideDrug

    Also called Temodar

    Patients will be treated with hypofractionated IMRT (60 Gy in 10 Fx) and daily temozolomide at 75 mg/m2 qd concurrent with IMRT. Four to six weeks following completion of concurrent IMRT, TMZ and bevacizumab, temozolomide will be given at 150-200 mg/m2 qd on days 1-5 of each cycle.

  • RT (Radiation Therapy)Radiation

    Patients will be treated with hypofractionated IMRT (60 Gy in 10 Fx)

Study groups in NCT01209442
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
RT with Temozolomide and BevacizumabExperimentalPatients will be treated with hypofractionated IMRT (60 Gy in 10 Fx) and daily TMZ at 75 mg/m2 qd concurrent with IMRT (including weekends and holidays). Bevacizumab will be administered at 10 mg/kg on day 1 and day 15. Day 1 and the 1st Fx of IMRT must start on the same day. Four to six weeks following completion of concurrent IMRT, TMZ and bevacizumab therapy, patients will have a brain MRI and if there is no evidence of disease progression, patients will receive 6 cycles of Bevacizumab and TMZ. Beginning a minimum of 28 days after the last radiation treatment the bevacizumab will be dosed at 10 mg/kg on day 1 and day 15 of each cycle. TMZ will be given at 150-200 mg/m2 qd on days 1-5 of each cycle. Each cycle is 28 days.
Receives: Drug: Bevacizumab; Drug: Temozolomide; Radiation: RT (Radiation Therapy)

What is being measured

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

  1. 6-month Progression-free Survival

    To use 6-month progression-free survival to assess the efficacy of the combination of hypofractionated IMRT delivering 60 Gy over 2 weeks with concurrent bevacizumab and temozolomide followed by 6 cycles of adjuvant bevacizumab and temozolomide.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall Survival, Measured From the Day of Initial Diagnosis (Biopsy or Surgery) to the Time of Death From Any Cause.

    Measured: follow up for life

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Bevacizumab, Temozolomide and RT (Radiation Therapy) in people with Glioblastoma Multiforme, run by University of Colorado, Denver 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 7 inclusion and 21 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 12 Apr 2019. 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 12 Apr 2019). 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?

6-month Progression-free Survival (time frame: 6 months). 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 12 Apr 2019.
