About this study

Official title: Individualized Systems Medicine Strategy for Targeting Cancer Stem Cells in Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma (ISM-GBM)

A study to determine the feasibility and safety of individualized cancer stem cell targeted therapy based on high-throughput functional profiling of FDA/EMA-approved drugs in patients with GBM that has recurred or progressed following standards-of-care (RT, TMZ).

Read the detailed description

This protocol describes a prospective single-center phase 1 study to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a high-throughput drug sensitivity and resistance testing (HTS) platform of individualized cancer stem cells (CSC) to predict targeted therapies in patients with recurrence of GBM after standards-of-care. Secondary outcome include efficacy of drug treatment. The underlying hypotheses is that treatment of patients based on functional profiling og autologous CSCs using HTS a) is feasible within an acceptable time window for clinical translation, b) safely delay disease progression and c) increase survival. There are increasingly published literature that strongly support the importance of a targeting CSC to improve therapy and prevent tumor recurrence in GBM, as an additional strategy to improve the overall prognosis of patients.

Receives: Drug: Personalized drug combination

What is being measured

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

  1. Drug screen completion and treatment initiation

    The fraction of patient that can receive an individualized treatment based on drug screening. These drugs must be available for treatment and with a combined acceptable toxicity.

    Measured: 8 weeks after surgery

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Tumor response

    Tumor response by the chosen drug combination evaluated according to the updated response assessment in neuro-oncology (RANO) criteria.

    Measured: 15 months from inclusion

  2. Number of grade 3-5 adverse events

    Adverse events induced by selected treatments according to NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events.

    Measured: 15 months from inclusion

  3. Overall survival

    Overall survival in treated patients from time of second surgery to all-cause mortality.

    Measured: 15 months from inclusion

  4. Patient reported quality of life, overall (QLQ-C30)

    Evaluated by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Quality of Life Questionaire (QLQ-C30), a questionnaire developed to assess the quality of life of cancer patients. Scale 30 to 120 points, where higher is worse.

    Measured: 15 months from inclusion

  5. Patient reported quality of life, brain specific(QLQ-BN20)

    Evaluated by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Quality of Life Questionaire, Brain module (QLQ-BN20). The brain cancer module is meant for use among brain cancer patients varying in disease stage and treatment modality. Scale 20 to 80 points, where higher is worse.

    Measured: 15 months from inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Personalized drug combination in people with Recurrent Glioblastoma, run by Oslo University Hospital at 1 site in Norway.

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 7 inclusion and 2 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 3 Apr 2024. 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 Norway. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Einar O. Vik-Mo, MD, PhD (23074343 ext. +47, uxvieb@ous-hf.no), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Drug screen completion and treatment initiation (time frame: 8 weeks after surgery). 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 NCT05043701, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 3 Apr 2024.
