About this study

Official title: A Phase II/III Randomized Trial of Veliparib or Placebo in Combination With Adjuvant Temozolomide in Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma With MGMT Promoter Hypermethylation

This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well temozolomide and veliparib work compared to temozolomide alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether temozolomide is more effective with or without veliparib in treating glioblastoma multiforme.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. Test whether the experimental combination of ABT-888 (veliparib) combined with TMZ (temozolomide), compared to the control of placebo combined with TMZ, significantly extends overall survival in newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients with tumor MGMT promoter hypermethylation.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Test whether the experimental treatment significantly extends progression-free survival.

II. Test whether the experimental treatment improves objective tumor response. III. Test whether the experimental treatment is associated with significantly greater rates of grade 3 or higher adverse events.

CORRELATIVE SCIENCE OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate the utility of dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques in defining time to progression in the setting of a large multi-institutional clinical trial.

II. Test the concordance between site-determined MGMT methylation status and central laboratory determination of MGMT status in cases with local testing.

III. Evaluate whether genetic or epigenetic alterations in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair or replication genes are associated with overall survival, progression-free survival, and objective tumor response.

IV. Test whether polymorphisms in MGMT, PARP1, or other DNA repair proteins, are associated with overall survival, progression-free survival, objective tumor response, or rates of grade 3 or higher adverse events.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM I: Patients receive temozolomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-5 and placebo PO twice daily (BID) on days 1-7. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression (confirmed progression) or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM II: Patients receive temozolomide as in Arm I and veliparib PO BID on days 1-7. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression (confirmed progression) or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 3 years, every 6 months for 2 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    The distribution of OS for each arm will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared with a stratified logrank test.

    Measured: 83 months

Secondary outcomes (4)

  1. Interaction With Optune Device

    Cox proportional hazards model will be used to evaluate whether there is a potential interaction between the treatment arm and the Optune device. If an interaction is detected, separate analyses of treatment effect (using Cox models) will be done for patients treated with the Optune device and patients who were not treated with the Optune device.

    Measured: 10 years

  2. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    The distribution of PFS for each arm will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and be compared using Cox proportional hazard models with all stratification factors adjusted. Progression (PD): Defined by any of the following:

    1. > 25% increase in sum of products of perpendicular diameters of enhancing lesions, compared with the smallest tumor measurement obtained either at baseline or best response
    2. Significant increase in T2/FLAIR non-enhancing lesion on stable or increasing doses of corticosteroids compared with baseline scan or best response after therapy initiation (stable doses of steroids include patient not on steroids) not caused by comorbid events
    3. Any new lesion
    4. Clear clinical deterioration not attributable to other causes apart from tumor or change in corticosteroid dose
    5. Failure to return for evaluation as a result of death or deteriorating condition
    6. Clear progression of non-measurable disease

    Measured: 120 months

  3. Objective Tumor Response

    Defined as complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as specified in the Revised Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria. An objective tumor response will be evaluated for each patient and the tumor response count will be summarized for each arm and compared using the Chi-square test. For CR, all of the following must be true:

    disappearance of all enhancing measurable and non-measurable disease; no new enhancing lesions; stable or improved non-enhancing lesions; patients must be off corticosteroids; stable or improved clinically A PR requires all of the following: > 50% decrease in sum of products of perpendicular diameters of all measurable enhancing lesions compared with baseline; no progression of non-measurable disease; no new lesions; stable or improved non-enhancing lesions on same or lower dose of corticosteroids compared with baseline scan; steroid dose should be same or lower compared with baseline scan; stable or improved clinically

    Measured: 5 years

  4. Overall Adverse Event Rates for Grade 3 or Higher Adverse Events

    Assessed using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 (version 5 beginning April 1, 2018). The overall adverse event rates for grade 3 or higher adverse events will be summarized and be compared using Chi-Square or Fisher's Exact tests between treatment arms. The maximum grade for each type of treatment-related adverse event will be recorded for each patient, and frequency tables for each arm will be reviewed to determine patterns. Treatment-related adverse events will be tabulated for each arm.

    Measured: 5 years

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Apr 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: 83 months). 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 NCT02152982, 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.
