About this study

Official title: Analysis of Different Circulating Immune Cells in Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma or Mixed Anaplasic Glioma Treated With Bevacizumab and Search for a Link With Response to Treatment

Bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), is an antiangiogenic treatment currently proposed to recurrent high grade glioma patients. Unfortunately some patients fail to respond to this treatment and finding biological factors allowing the discrimination between potential responders and non responders would be very helpful. As the immune system plays a key role in angiogenesis induction and maintenance in cancer, it could serve as a surrogate marker of angiogenesis in cancer patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of bevacizumab treatment on circulating immune cells in high grade glioma patients and to search for a link between the variation of these cells and the response to treatment.

Read the detailed description

The following leucocyte subsets will be analyzed in whole blood before treatment and before cycles 3, 5 and 7:

  • Classical, intermediate, nonclassical and Tie2 expressing monocytes.
  • Regulatory T cells (Treg).
  • Myeloid Derived Suppressor cells (MDSCs) The variation of the absolute numbers (or relative percentages) of the cells in the blood of patients will be correlated to the response to treatment assessed according to the RANO criteria.

What is being measured

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

  1. blood cells populations

    Analysis of blood cells populations variation during treatment with bevacizumab. Last sampling planned before the 7th cycle of bevacizumab.

    Measured: up to 4 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Cells variation and RMI response

    Relationship between variation of blood cells and RMI response after 6 weeks of treatment

    Measured: 6 weeks

  2. Survival

    Link between variation of analyzed cellular population and survival.

    Measured: Patients will be followed up from the date of randomization up to their death, assessed up to 100 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study of Glioblastoma and Glioma, run by Center Eugene Marquis at 2 sites in France.

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 1 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 1 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

blood cells populations (time frame: up to 4 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 1 Mar 2017.
