- Patients treated with PQR309 after incomplete surgical resection may still have measurable disease according to RANO criteria and may therefore be evaluable for evaluation of response to treatment with PQR309 according to RANO criteria. The best response in patients treated with PQR309 after complete surgical resection is stable disease. All patients can be assessed for PFS6.
- Only for patients of the non-surgical cohort:
- Presence of at least one lesion of bi-dimensionally measurable disease by MRI with a contrast-enhancing tumor of at least 1 cm (10 mm) in the longest diameter on baseline MRI is required for patients who do not undergo surgery at relapse. For patients who undergo surgery for recurrence but do not participate in the presurgical PQR309 dosing cohort, the same rules regarding response assessment as in the surgical cohort apply. All patients can be assessed for PFS6.
- Patient must have at least 1 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded archival tumor tissue block representative of glioblastoma available from the first surgical resection of glioblastoma.
- One prior systemic therapy regimen: patients must have received at least one dose of TMZ in the first line therapy. More than 6 cycles and alternative dosing regiments of TMZ are allowed.
- If receiving corticosteroids, patients must have been on a stable or decreasing dose of corticosteroids and no more than 8 mg dexamethasone equivalent for ≥ 5 days prior to baseline MRI.
- Karnofsky Performance Score (KPS) >70%.
- More than 12 weeks from radiotherapy (RT)
- More than 4 weeks from last administration of TMZ

About this study
Official title: Open-label, Non-randomized, Two-stage Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamic Effects of PQR309 in Patients With Progressive Glioblastoma
PQR309 is an oral, dual pan-PI3K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase phosphoinositide 3-kinase) and mTOR (mammilian target of rapamycin) inhibitor that penetrates the blood-brain barrier at pharmacodynamically active concentrations. This study plans to evaluate PQR309 in treatment of patients with first progression of glioblastoma.
Read the detailed description
Open-label, non-randomized, two-stage, multi-center study evaluating clinical efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic effects of PQR309 in patients with progressive glioblastoma during or after standard temozolomide chemoradiotherapy.
The first stage of the study will enroll a minimum of 18 patients with glioblastoma at first progression during or after temozolomide chemoradiotherapy or temozolomide only. Following the completion of recruitment of patients in the first stage of the study, the decision will be made by the study team (study investigators and the sponsor), based on the continuous evaluation of safety and efficacy data, whether to continue recruitment of patients in the second stage while awaiting the data analyses. 17 additional patients may be enrolled for the second stage of the study, for a minimum of 35 patients in total. All patients evaluable for the primary endpoint will be followed until disease progression or death.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
PQR309 is an oral, dual pan-PI3K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase phosphoinositide 3-kinase) and mTOR (mammilian target of rapamycin) inhibitor that penetrates the blood-brain barrier at pharmacodynamically active concentrations. This study plans to evaluate PQR309 in treatment of patients with first progression of glioblastoma.
Detailed description
Open-label, non-randomized, two-stage, multi-center study evaluating clinical efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic effects of PQR309 in patients with progressive glioblastoma during or after standard temozolomide chemoradiotherapy.
The first stage of the study will enroll a minimum of 18 patients with glioblastoma at first progression during or after temozolomide chemoradiotherapy or temozolomide only. Following the completion of recruitment of patients in the first stage of the study, the decision will be made by the study team (study investigators and the sponsor), based on the continuous evaluation of safety and efficacy data, whether to continue recruitment of patients in the second stage while awaiting the data analyses. 17 additional patients may be enrolled for the second stage of the study, for a minimum of 35 patients in total. All patients evaluable for the primary endpoint will be followed until disease progression or death.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing PQR309 in people with Glioblastoma Multiforme, run by PIQUR Therapeutics AG at 1 site in Switzerland.
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 21 inclusion and 18 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2018. 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 Switzerland. 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?
The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.
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 rate at 6 months (PFS6) based on RANO criteria [30]glioblastoma, using progression-free survival rate at 6 months (PFS6) based on RANO criteria [30] (time frame: Change to base line of contrast MRI scans and incorporated clinical signs will be assessed on Day 1 of Cycle 1 and on Day 1 of every following cycle and at the end of treatment which can be up to 24 months after). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Oct 2018.
