About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Multicenter, Open-label Study of BGJ398 in Patients With Recurrent Resectable or Unresectable Glioblastoma

This is an open-label non-randomized, multicenter, phase II study of BGJ398 administered to adult patients with histologically confirmed GBM and/or other glioma subtypes with FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3.

Read the detailed description

Patients were enrolled in two groups. Group 1 enrolled patients who are not candidates for surgery. Group 2 was planned to enroll patients who are surgical candidates. Patients from both groups were evaluated for tumor response and progression by MRI every 8 weeks until disease progression or discontinuation from study using RANO criteria.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival

    To assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM and/or other glioma subtypes that harbor FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3 based on PFS6 (PFS rate at 6 months as defined by RANO criteria as assessed by the investigator)

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall Response Rate

    To further assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM with an amplification, translocation, or activating mutation in FGFR1,2,3 or 4, based on Objective Response Rate (ORR - patients with measurable disease - as defined by RANO criteria as assessed by the investigator

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Overall Survival

    To further assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM and/or other glioma subtypes that harbor FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 and 3 based on Overall Survival

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Safety and Tolerability

    Safety: type, frequency, and severity of AEs and SAEs; Tolerability: dose interruptions, reductions and dose intensity, and evaluations of laboratory values

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BGJ398 in people with Recurrent Glioblastoma or Other Glioma Subtypes, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 17 sites in 6 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 4 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in United States, Spain, Australia, Belgium, Netherlands and 1 more country. 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?

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 4 Dec 2019). 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?

Progression Free Survival (time frame: 6 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 4 Dec 2019.
