Who cannot join

  • Patients with any of the following are ineligible for this research study:
  • Patients with VS or meningiomas deemed very high surgical risk for stroke and/or other complications by the attending surgeon, such as meningiomas with major vascular or dural sinus infiltration.

Show all 22Show fewer
  • History of hepatitis B or C. Note: A detailed assessment of hepatitis B/C medical history and risk factors must be done at screening for all patients. HBV serology, DNA and/or HCV RNA PCR testing are required at screening for all patients with a positive medical history based on risk factors and/or confirmation of prior HBV/HCV infection.

  • Known HIV seropositivity
  • Neurologic deficits that are rapidly progressing: all neurologic signs and symptoms must have been stable for a week prior to first dose
  • Patients who are pregnant or breast-feeding. The anti-proliferative activity of this experimental drug may be harmful to the developing fetus or nursing infant.

  • Radiation therapy to a study target lesion within 6 months
  • Prior therapy with mTOR inhibitors, including sirolimus, temsirolimus, deforolimus within 6 months prior to enrollment
  • Known hypersensitivity to RAD001 or other rapamycins (sirolimus, temsirolimus, deforolimus)
  • Patients with a concurrent malignancy
  • Patients treatment with systemic steroids or another immunosuppressive agent. Patients with endocrine deficiencies are allowed to receive physiologic or stress doses of steroids if necessary.
  • Patients cannot receive CYP3A4 inhibiting drugs including antibiotics (clarithromycin, erythromycin, troleandomycin), anti-HIV agents (delaviridine, nelfinavir, amprenavir, ritonavir, indinavir, saquinavir, lopinavir), antifungals (itraconazole, ketoconazole, fluconazole at doses > 200 mg/day, voriconazole), antidepressants (nefazodone, fluovoxamine), calcium channel blockers (verapamil, diltiazem) oramiodarone
  • Patients should avoid CYP3A4 inhibiting foods including grapefruit and Seville orange juice.
  • Patients cannot receive CYP3A4 inducing anticonvulsants including carbamazepine, felbamate, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone and oxcarbazepine, or other CYP3A4 inducers such as St. John's Wort
  • Patients who previously received CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors must have discontinued these medications within at least 1 week prior to study entry and can re-start them 1 week post-operatively (or earlier if determined to be of clinical benefit, as determined by the treating physician).

About this study

The primary objective is to estimate the proportions of vestibular schwannomas (VS) and meningiomas after 10 days of exposure to the study drug RAD001 at a dose of 10 mg daily, as determined by immunohistochemistry. This is a "phase 0" PK (pharmacokinetic) and PD (pharmacodynamic) study of RAD001 in patients with Neurofibromatosis Type 2-related and sporadic VS and meningiomas. Enrolled patients will take RAD001 prior to a scheduled VS or meningioma surgery, and blood and tissue samples will be obtained for further analysis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportions of VS and meningiomas after exposure to RAD001

    1. To estimate the proportions of VS and meningiomas with complete inhibition of phospho-S6 after10 days of exposure to RAD001 at a dose of 10 mg daily, as determined by immunohistochemistry. This endpoint was chosen based on prior pharmacodynamic data from a published trial, showing complete inhibition of phospho-S6 in solid tumor tissue of patients treated with RAD001 and our own preliminary data confirming baseline phospho-S6 expression in VS and meningiomas.

    Measured: 10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing RAD001 in people with Neurofibromatosis Type 2 and Vestibular Schwannomas, run by NYU Langone Health at 1 site 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 22 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 13 May 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

Proportions of VS and meningiomas after exposure to RAD001 (time frame: 10 days). 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 13 May 2020.
