About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Study of Amgen 386 With and Without Bevacizumab for Recurrent Glioblastoma

Primary Objectives

Cohort A -- monotherapy:

Read more

To determine the efficacy of AMG 386 in participants with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) as measured by 6-month progression-free survival (PFS6)

Cohort B - combination therapy:

Phase I To determine the maximum tolerated dose of AMG 386 in combination with bevacizumab given at 10mg/kg every 2 weeks in participants with recurrent glioblastoma.

Phase II To determine the efficacy of AMG 386 plus bevacizumab in participants with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) as measured by 6-month progression-free survival (PFS6).

Secondary Objectives:

To evaluate radiographic response in both cohort populations. To evaluate overall survival in both cohort populations. To assess time-to-progression in both cohort populations. To investigate the safety profile in both cohort populations.

Exploratory Objectives:

To evaluate expression of factors associated with tumor angiogenesis using a multiples cytokine assay among participants undergoing therapy with AMG 386 with response to therapy and development of resistance.

This is an open-label Phase I/II study of AMG 386 monotherapy and AMG 386 in combination with bevacizumab. Two cohorts will accrue and will be assessed sequentially. Each cohort will enroll participants with recurrent GBM. Cohort A will assess recurrent GBM participants who receive AMG 386 monotherapy at 30 g/kg every week. (Cohort A initially accrued at a dose of 15mg/kg, but this was increased to 30 mg/kg every week following an amendment). Cohort B will assess recurrent GBM participants who receive weekly AMG 386 plus bi-weekly bevacizumab (10mg/kg). Cohort B will start with a Phase I component to determine the MTD of AMG 386 that is safe when used in combination with bevacizumab. AMG 386 is administered intravenously, and, when used in combination with intravenous bevacizumab, will be administered first.

Patients will be required to come to the clinic weekly for study drug administration.

For study purposes, a cycle of therapy will be 4 weeks. Treatment will continue until either evidence of progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, non-compliance with study follow-up, or withdrawal of consent.

The estimated rate of accrual is 60 participants per year. The estimated date of accrual completion is 1.5 years from study initiation. The estimated date of study completion will be approximately 12 months from enrollment of the last study participant.

What participants receive

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

  • Amgen 386Drug

    Also called Trebananib

    For Cohort A, AMG 386 will be administered intravenously at 30 mg/kg every week.

    For Cohort B Phase I, AMG 386 will be administered intravenously at beginning at starting dose level of 15 mg/kg every week.

    For Cohort B Phase II, AMG 386 will be administered intravenously at the maximum tolerated dose determined in the Phase I portion of the study every week.

  • BevacizumabDrug

    Also called Avastin

    The dose of bevacizumab will be 10 mg/kg and will be administered intravenously every other week.

Study groups in NCT01290263
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Amgen 386ExperimentalCohort A will assess recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) patients who receive AMG 386 monotherapy at 30mg/kg every week. As of August 1, 2013, Cohort A was closed to new accrual following early interim analysis of first 10 participants enrolled on study. None of these patients had achieved stable disease or response at their initial evaluation after 1-2 months of study therapy. Therefore, study investigators and sponsor agreed that the level of single-agent anti-tumor activity associated with AMG386 for recurrent glioblastoma patients is most likely insufficient to satisfy the stopping rule for low efficacy outlined in Section 14.5 for Cohort A.
Receives: Drug: Amgen 386
Amgen 386 and BevacizumabExperimentalCohort B will assess recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme(GBM) patients who receive AMG 386 plus bevacizumab. Because the maximum tolerated dose of this combination therapy has not yet been established, a 3x3 Phase I study was used to determine the maximum tolerated dose. As of June 6, 2014, the MTD was determined to be AMG386 30 mg/kg administered intravenously every week(dose level +1) in combination with bevacizumab at 10mg/kg administered intravenously every other week. As of July 25, 2014 the Cohort B, Phase II portion of the study was opened to accrual.
Receives: Drug: Amgen 386; Drug: Bevacizumab

What is being measured

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

  1. 6-Month Progression-Free Survival (PFS6) [Cohort A and Cohort B]

    PFS6 is the proportion of patients remaining alive and progression-free at 6-months from study entry. Progressive disease was established based on Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria (Wen et al JCO 2010). RANO criteria has 5 potential categories: Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), Stable Disease (SD), Progressive disease (PD) and Unknown status. CR: disappearance of all enhancing lesions, stable or improved non-enhancing lesions, and stable or improved clinically. PR: >= 50% decrease in sum of perpendicular diameters of all measurable enhancing lesions, no progression of non-measurable disease, stable or improved non- enhancing lesions, and stable or improved clinically. PD: > 25% increase in sum of perpendicular diameters of all measurable enhancing lesions, significant increase of non-enhancing lesions, any new lesions, clear clinical deterioration, failure to return for evaluation due to death or deteriorating condition. SD: d

    Measured: 6 months

  2. AMG 386 Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) [Cohort B Phase I]

    The MTD of weekly AMG 386 intravenously (IV) in combination with bevacizumab 10 mg/kg intravenously (IV) on days 1 and 15 of each 28 day cycle is determined by the number of participants who experience a dose limiting toxicity (DLT). See subsequent primary outcome measure for the DLT definition. The MTD is defined as the highest dose at which fewer than one-third of patients experience a DLT. If no DLTs are observed, the MTD is not reached but the highest dose received may be the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D).

    Measured: Participants were assessed weekly while on study; the observation period for MTD evaluation was the first 28 days of study treatment.

  3. AMG 386 Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) [Cohort B Phase I]

    A DLT is defined as an adverse event that (a) is related to the AMG 386 and/or bevacizumab with an attribution of possible, probable, or definite, and (b) occurs during and/or begins during the first 28 days of the study treatment, and (c) meets any of the following criteria: >= grade 3 thrombocytopenia; grade 4 neutropenia lasting > 7 days; grade 4 anemia lasting > 7 days despite transfusion or growth factors; febrile neutropenia if ANC<0.5x10^9/L; clinically significant grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity despite maximal medical therapy lasting > 7 days, with the exception of grade 3 proteinuria which was considered a DLT if lasting > 14 days; grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity resulting in study drug discontinuation; grade 4 non-hematologic toxicity; >= grade 1 new CNS hemorrhage; >= grade 2 non-CNS hemorrhage.

    Measured: Participants were assessed weekly while on study; the observation period for DLT evaluation was the first 28 days of study treatment.

Secondary outcomes (3)

  1. Best Radiographic Response [Cohort A and Cohort B]

    Radiographic response was established based on Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria (Wen et al JCO 2010) with 5 potential categories: Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), Stable Disease (SD), Progressive disease (PD) and Unknown status. CR: disappearance of all enhancing lesions, stable or improved non-enhancing lesions, and stable or improved clinically. PR: >= 50% decrease in sum of perpendicular diameters of all measurable enhancing lesions, no progression of non-measurable disease, stable or improved non- enhancing lesions, and stable or improved clinically. PD: > 25% increase in sum of perpendicular diameters of all measurable enhancing lesions, significant increase of non-enhancing lesions, any new lesions, clear clinical deterioration, failure to return for evaluation due to death or deteriorating condition. SD: does not qualify for CR, PR or PD, stable non-enhancing lesions, and stable clinically.

    Measured: Disease was assessed radiographically for response every 8 weeks.

  2. Overall Survival (OS) [Cohort A and Cohort B]

    OS based on Kaplan-Meier is defined as the time from study entry to death or date last known alive.

    Measured: Participants were followed long-term for survival every 3 to 4 months from the end of treatment until death or lost to follow-up. On Cohort A and B participants were followed up to 554 days and 442 days.

  3. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [Cohort A and Cohort B]

    PFS based on Kaplan-Meier is defined as the time from study entry to the earliest documentation of disease progression or death. Progressive disease was established based on Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria (Wen et al JCO 2010).

    Measured: Disease was assessed radiographically to document clinical progression every cycle on treatment and post-treatment every 8 weeks. On Cohort A and B participants were followed for progression up to 36 days and 166 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Amgen 386 and Bevacizumab in people with Glioblastoma Multiforme, run by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at 6 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 16 inclusion and 24 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 2 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 May 2017). 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 (PFS6) [Cohort A and Cohort B] (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01290263.

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 2 Jul 2017.
