About this study
Official title: Temozolomide With Irinotecan Versus Temozolomide, Irinotecan Plus Bevacizumab (NSC# 704865) for Recurrent/Refractory Medulloblastoma/CNS PNET of Childhood, a COG Randomized Phase II Screening Trial
This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving temozolomide and irinotecan hydrochloride together with or without bevacizumab works in treating young patients with recurrent or refractory medulloblastoma or central nervous system (CNS) primitive neuroectodermal tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide and irinotecan hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. It is not yet known whether temozolomide and irinotecan hydrochloride are more effective with or without bevacizumab in treating medulloblastoma or CNS primitive neuroectodermal tumors.
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
- To compare the overall survival (OS) of subjects receiving the combination of temozolomide and irinotecan with that of subjects receiving temozolomide, irinotecan (irinotecan hydrochloride), and bevacizumab for recurrent medulloblastoma (MB)/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) of childhood.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- To assess the response rate for each treatment arm amongst patients who are enrolled with measurable disease.
II. To determine event-free survival (EFS) for each patient compared across regimens.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.
ARM I: Patients receive temozolomide orally (PO) and irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 90 minutes on days 1-5.
ARM II: Patients receive temozolomide PO and irinotecan hydrochloride IV as in arm I and bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1 and 15.
In both arms, treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 5 years.
- Conditions
- Central Nervous System Neoplasm, Pineoblastoma, Recurrent Medulloblastoma, Recurrent Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor, Refractory Medulloblastoma, Refractory Peripheral Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor
- Being tested
- Bevacizumab, Irinotecan Hydrochloride, Temozolomide
- Medical subject headings
- Central Nervous System Neoplasms, Pinealoma, Medulloblastoma, Neuroectodermal Tumors, Primitive, Neuroectodermal Tumors, Primitive, Peripheral

ARM II: Patients receive temozolomide PO and irinotecan hydrochloride IV as in arm I and bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1 and 15.
In both arms, treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 5 years.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Bevacizumab, Irinotecan Hydrochloride and Temozolomide in people with Central Nervous System Neoplasm and Pineoblastoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 158 sites in 5 countries.
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 50 inclusion and 13 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 23 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 158 sites in United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Puerto Rico. 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 13 Sep 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?
Overall Survival (time frame: Up to 5 years after enrollment). 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 23 Jul 2021.
