About this study

Official title: Single-Arm, Open-Label Phase II Efficacy Study of First-in-Class HIF-2 Alpha Inhibitor, PT2385, for Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma

This phase II trial studies how well HIF-2 alpha inhibitor PT2385 works in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma. HIF-2 alpha inhibitor PT2385 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the efficacy of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-2 alpha inhibitor PT2385 (PT2385) as measured by radiographic response rate (by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology, RANO, criteria) in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the efficacy of PT2385 as measured by progression free and overall survival in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

II. To determine the safety of oral PT2385 in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To describe the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of PT2385 in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

II. To describe baseline intratumoral hypoxia using novel, advanced magnetic resonance (MR)-based neuroimaging sequences in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

III. To explore genetic polymorphisms involved in the metabolism of PT2385.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive HIF-2 alpha inhibitor PT2385 orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 2 months for 2 years and every 6 months thereafter.

What is being measured

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

  1. Tumor Radiographic Response as Assessed by the RANO Criteria

    Tumor radiographic response assessed by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria.

    • Complete Response (CR) = no change in size of T1-gadolinium-enhancing (T1-Gd+) disease, stable or reduced T2/FLAIR signal, no new lesion, no corticosteroid use, and stable or improved clinical status
    • Partial Response (PR) = ≥50% change in size of T1-Gd+ disease, stable or reduced T2/FLAIR signal, no new lesion, stable or reduced corticosteroid use, and stable or improved clinical status
    • Stable Disease (SD) = <50% reduction to <25% increase size of T1-Gd+ disease, stable or reduced T2/FLAIR signal, no new lesion, stable or reduced corticosteroid use, and stable or improved clinical status
    • Progressive Disease (PD) = ≥25% increase size of T1-Gd+ disease, or increased T2/FLAIR signal, or presence of new lesion, or worsening clinical status.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    PFS (in months) will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier method along with 95% confidence interval. Definition of PFS is date treatment started to the date of progression.

    Measured: Assessed up to 2 years

  2. Overall Survival

    Overall survival (in months) will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier method along with 95% confidence interval.

    Measured: From the date of treatment start to the date of death occurrence/or censored at the time of last known alive, assessed up to 2 years

  3. Incidence of Grade 3 and Grade 4 Adverse Events

    Number of participants experiencing grade 3 and grade 4 adverse events assessed by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing HIF-2alpha Inhibitor PT2385, Pharmacological Study and Laboratory Biomarker Analysis in people with Recurrent Glioblastoma, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 10 sites 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 27 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 9 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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 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 21 Sep 2020). 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?

Tumor Radiographic Response as Assessed by the RANO Criteria (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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03216499, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 May 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
