About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study of Supra-early Post-Surgery Chemotherapy Plus Standard TEMODAL® Regimen Versus Standard TEMODAL® Regimen in the Treatment on Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma Multiforme

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of supra-early post-surgery chemotherapy versus standard TEMODAL® regimen in treatment of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme. The secondary purpose is to assess the efficacy of supra-early post-surgery chemotherapy in release brain edema.

Read the detailed description

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary malignant brain tumor. Despite great efforts have been devoted to promoting the treatment effect, GBM remains one of the most lethal tumors concurrent with poor prognosis and inevitable recurrence. The standard treatment protocol for GBM includes surgical resection, radiotherapy and temozolomide (TMZ) based chemotherapy. TMZ, an alkylating agent, has been proved to be efficient to control tumor growth after surgery and gradually has been recognized in routine clinical course for GBM. In a pivotal clinical trial published in 2005, GBM patients received concomitant TMZ and radiotherapy followed by 6 periods of adjuvant TMZ chemotherapy had a median survival of 14.6 months and 5-year survival rate of 9.8%, which has been regarded as a landscape in treatment history of GBM. To date, this regimen remains the standard protocol for newly diagnosed GBM patients. However, the optimal timing of initiation of TMZ or radiotherapy remains unclear. Our previous study showed 75mg per square meter of body surface per day (mg/m2/d) of TMZ chemotherapy alone was effective to control post-operative edema caused by tumor cell infiltration in primary GBM patients. The result suggested anti-cancer agents such as TMZ may be a useful regimen to control tumor cell regrowth after operation. Therefore, we conducted this prospective clinical trial to testify the hypothesis that supra-early initiation of TMZ chemotherapy in newly diagnosed GBM patients is effective to control tumor growth after tumor resection and therefore improve patients'clinical outcome.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
TEMODAL® standard therapy regimen4 weeks after surgery, patients are administered with radiotherapy that consisted of fractionated focal irradiation at a dose of 2 Gy per fraction given once daily 5 dyas a week over a period of 6 weeks. Concomitant TEMODAL® are administered orally at a daily dose of 75mg/m2 from the first day of radiotherapy until the last day of radiotherapy, but for no longer than 49 days. After a 4-week break, patients were then to receive up to 6 cycles of adjuvant TEMODAL® chemotherapy according to the standard 5-day schedule every 28 days.The dose is 150mg/m2 once daily for cycle 1 and is increase to 200mg/m2 at the beginning of cycle 2, so long as there were no hematologic toxic effects.
Receives: Drug: standard TEMODAL® chemotherapy; Radiation: Radiotherapy 60Gy
post-surgery supra-early TEMODAL® chemotherapyWithin 24 hours after surgery, Supra-early TEMODAL® Chemotherapy is administered orally at 75mg/m2/day for 28 days for patients pathologically confirmed as GBM. 4 weeks after surgery, patients are administered with radiotherapy that consisted of fractionated focal irradiation at a dose of 2 Gy per fraction given once daily 5 dyas a week over a period of 6 weeks. Concomitant TEMODAL® are administered orally at a daily dose of 75mg/m2 from the first day of radiotherapy until the last day of radiotherapy, but for no longer than 49 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Glioblastoma, run by Beijing Tiantan Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 13 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 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 China. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Song Lin, MD (8601067096509, linsong2005@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

progression free survival (time frame: Up to 2 years). 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 11 Jul 2019.
