Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female patients greater than or equal to 18 years old Histopathologically proven diagnosis of glioblastoma (GBM) or gliosarcoma or anaplastic astrocytoma(AA) A diagnostic contrast-enhanced MRI or CT scan of the brain must be performed preoperatively and postoperatively (preferably within 96 hours of surgery), prior to the initiation of radiotherapy. The post-operative MRI must be within 35 days prior to study registration.
  • Patients unable to undergo MR imaging because of non-compatible devices can be enrolled, provided pre- and post-operative contrast-enhanced CT scans are obtained and are of sufficient quality.
  • Radiation therapy planned to start less than or equal to 6 weeks after surgery and at least 7 days after the start of minocycline Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days of initiation of dosing and must agree to use an acceptable method of birth control while on study drug and for 3 months after the last dose. Women of non-childbearing potential may be included if they are either surgically sterile or have been postmenopausal for greater than or equal to1 year. Men of child-bearing potential must also agree to use an acceptable method of birth control while on study drug, and for 3 months after the last dose.
  • Karnofsky performance status of greater than or equal to 70 Adequate bone marrow function, coagulation, hepatic, and renal function as defined by lab testing.

Who cannot join

  • Prior radiation or chemotherapy for high grade glioma Prior invasive cancer (except nonmelanoma skin cancer) unless disease free for at least 2 years or life expectancy without treatment is greater than 2 years, e.g., low risk localized prostate cancer.
  • Prior radiation to the head or neck with overlapping radiation fields Patients who had a stereotactic needle biopsy Unstable angina and/or decompensated congestive heart failure in the last 6 months, transmural myocardial infarction within the last 6 months, New York Heart Association grade II or higher congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization within 12 months prior to registration, serious or inadequately controlled cardiac arrhythmia, significant vascular and peripheral vascular disease, evidence of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy.
  • History of stroke, cerebral vascular accident (CVA) or transient ischemic attack within 6 months Active (acute or chronic) or uncontrolled severe infections requiring intravenous antibiotics Liver disease such as cirrhosis, chronic active hepatitis or chronic persistent hepatitis Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) based upon current CDC definition or known HIV seropositivity; note, however, that HIV testing is not required for entry into this protocol. The need to exclude patients with HIV/AIDS from this protocol is necessary because the treatments involved in this protocol may be significantly immunosuppressive.
  • Active connective tissue disorders, such as lupus or scleroderma Patients with history of allergic reaction to minocycline or to any of the tetracyclines Patients with history of erosive esophagitis should be excluded from the study Patients that are on anticonvulsant medications would be switched, when possible, to a non-enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drug (non-EIAED). However, if that is not possible, they will not be excluded from the study.
  • Other major medical illnesses or psychiatric impairments that in the investigator's opinion will prevent administration or completion of protocol therapy Women who are breast feeding, due to possible adverse effects on the infant Prior allergic reaction to temozolomide

About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Trial in Newly Diagnosed High Grade Glioma With Temozolomide, Radiation, and Minocycline Followed by Adjuvant Minocycline/Temozolomide. (D-TERMINED)

This will be an open label, single arm study. Subjects with newly diagnosed high grade glioma will begin minocycline one week prior to beginning postoperative chemoradiation and continue it until progression, intolerance, or the end of adjuvant temozolomide, whichever comes first.

Being tested
Minocycline with chemoradiation (temozolomide and radiation therapy)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Minocycline with chemoradiation (temozolomide and radiation therapy)Drug

    Patients receive minocycline in conjunction with standard chemoradiation and then they receive minocycline with standard chemotherapy.

Receives: Drug: Minocycline with chemoradiation (temozolomide and radiation therapy)

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability of minocycline combined with standard radiation and chemotherapy

    The adverse event rate and maximum tolerated dose of minocycline (up to a maximum dose of 800 mg/day) when combined with concurrent radiation and temozolomide in newly diagnosed high grade glioma is being explored.

    Measured: Patient safety will be evaluated throughout the treatment period (treatment with Temozolomide, Radiation, and Minocycline followed by Adjuvant Minocycline/Temozolomide) which is expected to last about and up to 14 months for each patient

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Minocycline with chemoradiation (temozolomide and radiation therapy) in people with Newly Diagnosed High Grade Glioma, run by University of Utah 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 19 Jun 2019. 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?

Safety and tolerability of minocycline combined with standard radiation and chemotherapy (time frame: Patient safety will be evaluated throughout the treatment period (treatment with Temozolomide, Radiation, and Minocycline followed by Adjuvant Minocycline/Temozolomide) which is expected to last about and up to 14 months for each patient). 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 19 Jun 2019.
