About this study

Official title: A Phase 1B Study of the Safety of LAM561 Administered Orally in Combination With Temozolomide (TMZ) and Radiation Therapy or With TMZ Alone in the First Line Treatment of Subjects With Glioblastoma

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of LAM561 added to first-line treatment for subjects with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM), and to determine the highest safe dose of LAM561 administered orally when added to the concurrent phase of treatment with temozolomide (TMZ) and radiation therapy (RT) or when added to the maintenance phase of treatment with TMZ (once TMZ 200 g/m2/day is started).

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase IB, open-label, dose-finding study. A de-escalation process has been selected for the study with a 3+3 design to establish the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD).

The first group of 3 subjects (within each arm), where all 3 subjects may be started at the same time, will receive LAM561 at the starting dose of 12 g/day (4 g tid). If 0-1 Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) in the first 3 patients, then a new cohort with 3 more patients is started at 12 g/day (4 g tid). If 2 or more patients out of 3 or 6 patients experience DLT(s) the dose is deescalated.

De-escalation doses are from 12 g/day (4 g tid) to 8 g/day (4 g bid) and from 8 g/day (4 g bid) to 4 g/day (4 g od). This procedure must be applied to the two arms of the study described below. Both arms will be independent, and will run in parallel, therefore none of the patients from Arm 1 may enter Arm 2.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Arm 1 (chemoradiation phase)ExperimentalRadiotherapy (RT) + temozolomide (TMZ) + LAM561 (during Concurrent phase - duration 6 weeks)*: LAM561 will be initiated at the start of the concurrent phase and will be administered on a continuous daily basis together with TMZ and RT for 6 weeks at the selected dose, either 12 g/day (4 g tid), 8 g/day (4 g bid) or 4 g/day (4 g od). RT will be administered only during the concurrent phase, consisting of fractionated focal irradiation administered using 1.8- 2 Gy/fraction, daily for 5 days/week for 6 weeks, for a total dose of up to 60 Gy. TMZ will be administered during the concurrent phase at a starting dose of 75 mg/m2/day given daily for 6 weeks. * One extra week may be allowed.
Receives: Drug: LAM561; Radiation: RT; Drug: TMZ
Arm 2 (maintenance phase)ExperimentalTMZ + LAM561 (during Maintenance phase with TMZ 200 mg/m2/day at Cycle 2 - duration 8 weeks): LAM561 will be initiated on day 2 of Cycle 2 of the maintenance phase, when TMZ 200 mg/m2/day is given and administered on a continuous basis for two 28-day cycles. LAM561 will be administered at the selected dose, either 12 g/day (4 g tid), 8 g/day (4 g bid) or 4 g/day (4 g od). TMZ will be administered at 200 mg/m2/day given daily the first 5 days for two 28-day cycles (if no toxicity is seen). In case of toxicity, TMZ dose may be reduced to 150 mg/m2/day at Cycle 3 to allow for recovery. Both arms will be followed by a 4-week safety follow-up
Receives: Drug: LAM561; Drug: TMZ

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and Tolerability of LAM561 in association with Standard of Care (Stupp Protocol)

    Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events.

    Measured: 10 to 12 weeks

  2. Maximum Tolerated dose (MTD)

    MTD of LAM561 administered with Standard of Care

    Measured: 10 to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Plasma concentration of temozolomide (TMZ).

    To verify that the administration of LAM561 is not modifying the exposition of patients to TMZ.

    Measured: First five days of cycle 2 of maintenance phase (each cycle is 4 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LAM561, RT and TMZ in people with Glioblastoma (GBM), run by Laminar Pharmaceuticals at 3 sites in Spain.

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 11 inclusion and 10 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 21 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Spain. 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 LAM561 in association with Standard of Care (Stupp Protocol) (time frame: 10 to 12 weeks). 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 21 Feb 2023.
