About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Convection-Enhanced Delivery of Liposomal-Irinotecan Using Real-Time Imaging With Gadolinium In Patients With Recurrent High Grade Glioma

This is a single center, dose-toleration study designed to investigate and determine the maximum tolerated dose of nanoliposomal irinotecan in adults with recurrent high-grade glioma when administered directly into the tumor using a process called convection-enhanced delivery (CED).

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To determine the safety and tolerability of liposomal-irinotecan with gadolinium given by intra tumoral real-time convection enhanced delivery in patients with recurrent high grade glioma (HGG).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To optimize the magnetic resonance image-guided intracranial injection procedure in patients with recurrent HGG by correlating the observed distribution of gadolinium to pre-treatment modeling of the drug distribution utilizing predictive imaging software.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the time to progression and overall survival measured from the date of CED.

II. To determine the objective tumor response rate, based upon MR imaging, every 8 weeks for first year and then every 12 weeks.

III. To evaluate the possible effect on tumor histology, as assessed by comparing pre-treatment tumor samples to post-treatment tumor samples in patients who undergo subsequent repeat surgical procedures for progression after being treated as part of this protocol.

IV. Pharmacokinetics measurements will also be taken at pre-dose, 1 day after the drug is administered, and 1 week post-op.

OUTLINE:

Participants will be enrolled in a 3+3 dose escalation model with a two cohort concentration escalation, enrolling at least 3 patients in each cohort which results in each total dose personalized for each participant as all participants will have different size and morphology of tumors requiring different volumes of study infusions ranging from 3 mL for smallest tumor to approximately 17 mL for largest tumor (4 cm). Enrollment into a subsequent cohort will not start until after 30 days after monitoring all patients in cohort prior. Participants will be followed for 12 months from CED procedure or until death or institution of alternate anti-neoplastic therapy for progressive recurrent HGG.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerated dose

    Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) will be defined as any grade-3 or higher neurological toxicity felt to be attributable to the CED infusion of liposomal-irinotecan with gadolinium, as well as any systemic grade-3 or higher hematologic or non-hematologic toxicity (after maximal medical management of nausea/vomiting/diarrhea), over a period of 30 days after CED infusion.

    Measured: 30 days post-infusion

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) at 6 months

    Number of patients not having objective progression or death at 6 months after the time from date of study enrollment estimated from the PFS distribution. For patients who are not known to have died or progressed as of the data-inclusion cut-off date, PFS time will be censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment prior to the date of any subsequent systematic anticancer therapy. PFS will be summarized using Kaplan Meier methods and displayed graphically. The median event time and two-sided 95% confidence interval for the median will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  2. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    The time from the date of study enrollment to the date of first observation of objective progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. For patients who are not known to have died or progressed as of the data-inclusion cut-off date, PFS time will be censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment prior to the date of any subsequent systematic anticancer therapy. PFS will be summarized using Kaplan Meier methods and displayed graphically. The median event time and two-sided 95% confidence interval for the median will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 10 years

  3. Overall Survival at 12 months

    The time from the date of study enrollment to the date of death from any cause. For patients who are not known to have died as of the 12 month cut-off date, survival time will be censored at the date of the last known survival status of participant prior to the date of any subsequent systematic anticancer therapy. OS will be summarized using Kaplan Meier methods and displayed graphically. The median event time and two-sided 95% confidence interval for the median will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    The time from the date of study enrollment to the date of death from any cause. For patients who are not known to have died as of the data-inclusion cut-off date, survival time will be censored at the date of the last known survival status of participant prior to the date of any subsequent systematic anticancer therapy. OS will be summarized using Kaplan Meier methods and displayed graphically. The median event time and two-sided 95% confidence interval for the median will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 10 years

  5. Objective Tumor Response Rate

    Overall response rate (ORR) is the proportion of patients who achieved a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) out of all randomly assigned patients. Based on Response assessment in neuro-oncology criteria (RANO), a responder is defined by radiographic and clinical criteria. Complete response or PR will be first assessed by radiographic changes as determined by an improvement of the bi-dimensional evaluation of the tumor size. In addition, changes in neurologic function and steroid use will be considered to determine stable disease (SD). The objective response rate (ORR) will be summarized with the corresponding exact two-sided 95% confidence interval calculated using a method based on the F distribution

    Measured: Up to 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing nanoliposomal irinotecan in people with High Grade Glioma, run by University of California, San Francisco 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 31 inclusion and 9 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 29 Jun 2023. 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?

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.

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?

Maximum tolerated dose (time frame: 30 days post-infusion). 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 29 Jun 2023.
