About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomised, Phase II Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Addition of Continuous Multiple Line Bevacizumab Treatment to Lomustine in Second (2nd)-Line Followed by Standard of Care (SOC) in Third (3rd)-Line and Beyond Compared to Addition of Placebo, Following First Progression of Disease (PD1) in Patients With Glioblastoma (GBM) After First (1st)-Line Treatment With Radiotherapy, Temozolomide and Bevacizumab

This multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the addition of bevacizumab treatment to lomustine (in 2nd-line [2L] treatment) and SOC (in 3rd-line [3L] and subsequent lines of treatment) following first-line disease progression (PD1) in participants with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. All enrolled participants will receive 1L treatment with radiotherapy, temozolomide, and bevacizumab. At PD1, eligible participants will be randomized (1:1) to receive 2L treatment with either bevacizumab plus lomustine or placebo plus lomustine. After second-line disease progression (PD2), participants will receive 3L treatment and will continue blinded bevacizumab or placebo with the addition of an SOC agent. Following third-line disease progression (PD3), participants will receive subsequent lines of treatment and will either continue blinded bevacizumab or placebo (at the discretion of the investigator), or switch to open-label bevacizumab (at the choice of the participant).

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 a dose of 10 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) intravenous (IV) every 2 weeks (Q2W) throughout the study, with the exception of bevacizumab monotherapy prior to PD1, which will be given as 15 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks (Q3W).

  • LomustineDrug

    Lomustine will be administered at a dose of 90 milligrams per square meter (mg/m^2) orally (PO) every 6 weeks (Q6W), with a cap of 160 milligrams (mg) per dose. In the absence of hematologic toxicity following the first dose, the second and subsequent doses may be increased to 110 mg/m^2 PO Q6W, with a cap of 200 mg per dose.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Placebo will be administered via IV infusion, in a formulation matched to bevacizumab, Q2W after randomization.

  • RadiotherapyRadiation

    Radiotherapy will be administered for a total dose of 60 Gray (Gy), administered in 2-Gy fractions, 5 days per week for 6 weeks during first-line treatment.

  • TemozolomideDrug

    Temozolomide will be administered orally (PO) as 75 mg/m^2 per day for the first 6 weeks of first-line treatment (concurrent treatment), followed by 6 cycles (28 days each) as follows: 150 mg/m^2 per day for the first 5 days of Cycle 1, then 200 mg/m^2 per day (if permitted by the participant's hematological and non-hematological toxicity profile) for the first 5 days of Cycles 2-6.

  • SOC AgentDrug

    The choice of SOC agent will be at the discretion of investigator. The SOC agent will be administered during third-line treatment and subsequent lines, as per standard practice.

Study groups in NCT01860638
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
First-Line Bevacizumab followed by Bevacizumab + Lomustine/SOCExperimentalParticipants will receive first-line treatment with radiotherapy, temozolomide, and bevacizumab. All three treatments will be given concurrently for the first 6 weeks, followed by 6 cycles (28 days each) of temozolomide plus bevacizumab, followed by bevacizumab monotherapy until PD1 or unacceptable toxicity. At PD1, participants randomized to bevacizumab will receive bevacizumab plus lomustine until PD2. Following PD2, participants will continue with blinded bevacizumab with the addition of appropriate SOC. Following PD3, for subsequent treatment lines blinded bevacizumab may continue or open-label bevacizumab may be given at the discretion of the investigator and the participant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Bevacizumab, Lomustine and Radiotherapy in people with Glioblastoma, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 64 sites in 15 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 12 inclusion and 16 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 30 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 64 sites in Spain, France, Austria, Italy, United Kingdom and 10 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

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?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: From randomization at PD1 until death from any cause or end of study (overall approximately 35 months)). 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 NCT01860638, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 30 Apr 2018.
