About this study
Official title: Determining the Dose of Regadenoson Most Likely to Transiently Alter the Integrity of the Blood-Brain Barrier in Patients With High Grade Gliomas
enroll patients with histologically confirmed high-grade gliomas to evaluate the ability of regadenoson to transiently disrupt a relatively intact blood-brain barrier (BBB). determine the best dose of regadenoson to disrupt the BBB and allow for enhanced penetration of gadolinium during MRI.
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
To determine if there is a dose of regadenoson, in the range shown to be safe for clinical administration, that can increase gadolinium Ktrans by more than 10 times the values reported in the literature within normal-appearing brain parenchyma with a previously documented intact blood-brain barrier in patients with high grade gliomas.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE To determine if there is a dose of regadenoson, in the range shown to be safe for clinical administration, that can substantially alter the normalized, contrast enhanced MRI signal intensity in normal-appearing tissues and in: A) Brain adjacent to tumor (i.e. T2 hyperintense, but without contrast enhancement before regadenoson) and B) Contrast enhancing tumor (with contrast enhancement before regadenoson).
Part I Treatment Plan
Part I of the protocol is designed to identify the best regadenoson dose(s) to transiently disrupt the blood-brain barrier as measured by DCE-MRI and contrast enhancement on T1-weighted images corresponding to an increase in the accumulation of MRI contrast (gadolinium) into normal appearing brain contralateral to the brain tumor.
Patients who are at low risk of having complications with a standard regadenoson cardiac stress test (young with no known cardiac disease) and who have had stable MRI scans for at least 2 months prior to enrollment will be asked to undergo a research MRI within two weeks after their most recent previous MRI.
Part II Treatment Plan
Part II will be initiated if the first portion of the study identifies one or more doses of regadenoson that meets the desired endpoint of a Ktrans value >0.04 min-1 within contralateral normal-appearing brain following regadenoson administration. Part II patients will undergo more extensive imaging prior to regadenoson administration to confirm that regadenoson has a significant effect on the BBB using a more comprehensive imaging approach.
Five additional patients who are at low risk to have complications of a standard chemical cardiac stress test (young with no known significant cardiac disease) will be sequentially enrolled at each regadenoson dose meeting the desired endpoint in Part I. In these cohorts, the full research imaging protocol will be utilized in both the pre- and post-regadenoson MRI scans which will allow a direct comparison of all imaging parameters in both the pre-regadenoson and post-regadenoson settings to be directly compared.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Regadenoson 0.05mg, Regadensoson 0.1mg and Regadensoson 0.2mg in people with High Grade Glioma and Anaplastic Astrocytoma, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 2 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 18 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 6 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Terminated \[NCI decided to terminate ABTC Consortium due to NCI moving in different direction for Brain Cancer\]). 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?
Dose of regadenoson (time frame: 15 minutes). 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 NCT03971734, 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 6 Oct 2023.
