Trial summary

Blood samples will be obtained from newly diagnosed GBM patients treated with combined radiotherapy (RT), temozolomide (TMZ) and bevacizumab (BEV) at specific time points. The primary outcome is the shift in T reg cell fraction a defined by determining the proportion of CD4 cells that are CD4+ CD25. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: DMS 0947 Exploratory Study of the Modulation of the Immune System by Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Blockade in Patients With Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM)

Blood samples will be obtained from newly diagnosed GBM patients treated with combined radiotherapy (RT), temozolomide (TMZ) and bevacizumab (BEV) at specific time points. The primary outcome is the shift in T reg cell fraction a defined by determining the proportion of CD4 cells that are CD4+ CD25.

Read the detailed description

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most frequent malignant brain tumor and it remains a lethal disease. Approximately 4 weeks post surgery for tumor resection, patients will proceed to standard of care treatment which currently consists of temozolomide (TMZ) with concurrent radiation therapy (RT) for 6 weeks. This study will add bevacizumab (BEV) to the standard of care regimen in newly diagnosed patients. The Bevacizumab will be added 2 weeks post start of RT/TMZ. Administration of bevacizumab will continue concurrently with TMZ every 2 weeks for 12 months. Blood samples will be obtained from these patients at 3 different time points during this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in the peripheral blood T-reg profile between pretreatment and 4 weeks after completion of treatment with the addition of bevacizumab to RT and TMZ in patients with glioblastoma

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Immunologic shift in the phenotypic T cell, B cell, NK cell and DC repertoire induced by RT-TMZ-BEV comparing pretreatment and 4 weeks after completion of treatment

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Bevacizumab in people with Glioblastoma Multiforme, run by Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center at 1 site 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 25 May 2018. 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 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?

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?

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?

Changes in the peripheral blood T-reg profile between pretreatment and 4 weeks after completion of treatment with the addition of bevacizumab to RT and TMZ in patients with glioblastoma (time frame: 1 year). 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 25 May 2018.
