About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Phase I/II Trial of Irinotecan and Temozolomide Compared to Irinotecan and Temozolomide in Combination With TPI 287 in Patients With Primary Refractory or Early Relapsed Neuroblastoma

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate a new investigational drug (TPI 287) for early relapsed neuroblastoma. An investigational drug is one that has not yet been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. This investigational drug is called TPI 287. This study will look at the tumor's response to the study drug, TPI 287, in combination with Irinotecan and Temozolomide versus the combination of Irinotecan and Temozolomide alone. This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of the study drug, TPI 287.

Arm A- Temozolomide and IrinotecanActive comparator1. Oral (PO) Temozolomide at a dose of 100mg/m2 on days 1-5 of each 28 day cycle. 2. Intravenous (IV) Irinotecan at a dose of 10mg/m2 on days 1-5 and 8-12 of each 28 day cycle. Patients who show progression on the I+TMZ arm may crossover to the I+TMZ+TPI 287 arm at anytime during cycles 1 to 6. If there is evidence of progression after completion of the I+TMZ arm (after completion of cycle 6) then the patient will have been considered to have completed therapy and is not eligible for the crossover.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    To determine the safety and tolerability of TPI 287 in combination with Irinotecan and Temozolomide (TPI+I+TMZ) in pediatric and young adult patients with primary refractory or recurrent Neuroblastoma.

    Phase I patients were all enrolled to receive TPI 287. Phase 2 is where randomization began. Patients were different patients than the Phase 1 patients. Below all patients that received TPI 287 are included in the TPI 287 group. This includes Phase I patients and the Phase 2 patients randomized to TPI 287.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Overall Response Rate (ORR) of Participants Using RECIST Criteria

    Phase I portion of trial- All patients enrolled to recieve TPI+I+TMZ. These patients will be added to the Phase II patients that were randomized to Arm B- Arm with TPI 287 (recieved same tx as Phase I participatns).

    Phase II portion of trial- TPatients enrolled to this portion (different patients than enrolled to Phase 1) were randomized to Arm A: I+TMZ OR Arm B: TPI+I+TMZ Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of TPI 287 in the Phase I Population of This Trial.

    To evaluate the drug levels and pharmacokinetics (PK) of TPI 287 from blood samples at multiple time points within the first 24 hours on study.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Measure Quality of Life of Children Receiving TPI287 Using PedsQL Questionnaires

    Evaluate the impact on QOL of children receiving TPI+I+TMZ

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Progression Free Survival (PFS) of Participants Using Days Until Progression

    Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions

    Measured: 3 years

  4. Median Overall Survival (OS) of Participants

    To determine OS and clinical benefit (CR/PR/SD) in this population

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing TPI 287, Temozolomide and Irinotecan in people with Neuroblastoma, run by Giselle Sholler at 8 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 17 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 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 28 Oct 2016). 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?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Aug 2024.
