What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CabozantinibDrug

    Also called XL184, Cometriq, Cabometyx, BMS907351

    Cabozantinib tablets are supplied as film coated tablets containing cabozantinib malate equivalent to 20 mg and 60 mg of cabozantinib and contain microcrystalline cellulose, lactose anhydrous, hydroxypropyl cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate and Opadry® yellow. The 60 mg tablets are oval and the 20 mg tablets are round. Doses of 40 mg will comprise two 20-mg tablets.

    The starting dose for all participants is 60 mg per day by mouth. The study doctor may reduce a participant's dose to 40 mg per day, 20 mg per day, or 20 mg every other day depending on severity of side effects. The study doctor may also increase the dose back up to 60 mg per day if side effects improve.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the proportion of participants who from the start of treatment are free from objective tumor progression or death from any cause at 6 months. Tumor response and progression will be assessed using Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) meningioma criteria. Progressive disease (PD) is defined as the presence of any of the following criteria: ≥ 25% increase in target lesion area relative to nadir, unequivocal progression of any nontarget lesion, presence of new lesions, or worsening clinical status. Participants without documented progression or death by 6 months will be censored at the date of their last adequate disease assessment. Those who discontinue early or are lost to follow-up prior to 6 months without a progression event will be censored at their last tumor assessment. Suspected but unconfirmed progression will not be counted as an event unless subsequently confirmed.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as the proportion of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) assessed by RANO meningioma criteria, from the start of treatment to two years. CR is defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions, no new lesions, no use of corticosteroids, and stable or improved clinical status. PR is defined as ≥ 50% decrease in target lesion area relative to baseline, stable or improved non-target lesions, no new lesions, stable or decreased use of corticosteroids, and stable or improved clinical status.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall Survival (OS): duration of time from start of treatment until death from any cause. Patients lost-to follow up will be censored at last valid assessment.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Percent of participants with adverse events (AEs)

    Percent of participants who develop AEs as assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0 criteria.

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Percent of participants with Grade 3-5 AEs

    Percent of participants who develop Grade 3-5 AEs as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 criteria.

    Measured: 2 years

  5. Quality of life (QOL)

    QOL will be measured by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Brain (FACT-Br) Version 4. The FACT-Br questionnaire is a 23-item survey, participants then rate each item on a Likert scale from 0 "not at all" to 4 "very much", and overall, higher ratings are suggestive of better quality of life.

    QOL will be assessed at the baseline, day 1 of every cycle (treatment days, every 4 weeks on 28-day cycle, and every 6 weeks on 42-day cycle).

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cabozantinib in people with Meningioma, run by Baptist Health South Florida at 3 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 24 inclusion and 39 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Rupesh Kotecha, M.D. ((786) 596-2000, RupeshK@baptisthealth.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression free survival (PFS) (time frame: 6 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 NCT05425004, which also lists 19 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 14 May 2026.
