About this study

Official title: A Phase Ib Study of Cediranib in Combination With Cilengitide in Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of cediranib maleate when given together with cilengitide in treating patients with progressive or recurrent glioblastoma. Cediranib maleate and cilengitide may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving cediranib maleate together with cilengitide may kill more tumor cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the safety profile of cediranib (cediranib maleate) in combination with cilengitide in patients with recurrent glioblastoma (Part A).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate overall survival. II. To estimate the proportion of radiographic responses in recurrent glioblastoma patients with measurable disease treated with cediranib and cilengitide.

III. To estimate the proportion of patients alive and progression free at 6 months (APF6) in patients with recurrent glioblastoma treated at the safe dose as determined in Part A (Part B).

IV. To explore potential imaging techniques and biomarkers to capture the disease process through treatment.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of cediranib maleate. Patients are initially enrolled in the dose-finding portion of the study (part A). Once the safe dose of cediranib maleate is determined, additional patients are enrolled in the dose-expansion portion of the study (part B).

Part A (dose finding): Patients receive cediranib maleate orally (PO) once daily on days 1-28 and cilengitide intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on days 1, 4, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22, and 25. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Part B (dose expansion): Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 groups according to prior anti-VEGF therapy (yes vs no). Patients in both groups receive cediranib maleate (administered at the safe dose determined in part A) and cilengitide as in part A.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed up every 2 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety profile of cediranib maleate based on the incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) as assessed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0

    The proportion of patients with serious or life threatening toxicities will be estimated along with 95% confidence intervals.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in markers

    Summarized using descriptive statistics. Statistical graphics such as box plots will be used to present the summary statistics at each time point. The differences before and during treatment will be tested using paired statistics.

    Measured: From baseline to up to 7 days after completion of treatment

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Median time of survival along with 95% confidence interval will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Time from the date of treatment start to the date of death, assessed up to 6 months

  3. Progression-free survival

    The probability of 6-month progression-free survival will be estimated using binomial distribution.

    Measured: At 6 months

  4. Radiographic responses using MRI scan

    The probability of the responses will be estimated using binomial distribution.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Cediranib Maleate, Cilengitide and Laboratory Biomarker Analysis in people with Adult Giant Cell Glioblastoma and Adult Glioblastoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 11 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 21 inclusion and 17 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 15 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 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 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 profile of cediranib maleate based on the incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) as assessed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 (time frame: 28 days). 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 15 Apr 2015.
