Ph 1/2 CTO With Lomustine for Bevacizumab-Naive Recurrent Glioma

Summary

This is a Phase 1/2 study of the combination of CTO with lomustine in patients with recurrent malignant glioma to be treated at the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center (PRTBTC) at Duke. The Primary Objectives are: * Phase 1: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CTO when combined with lomustine among patients with recurrent malignant glioma (World Health Organization (WHO) grade III or IV) who have not been previously treated with bevacizumab. * Phase 2: To assess the efficacy of CTO (either in monotherapy or in combination with lomustine) compared to lomustine alone in patients with recurrent WHO grade IV malignant gliomas that have not been previously treated with bevacizumab based upon 6-month progression free survival (PFS6). Note: This study was terminated early due to funding issues. At the time of termination, the study was still in Phase 1 and no MTD for the combination of CTO and lomustine had been determined for this population. Phase 2 will not proceed.

Detailed description

In the Phase 1 component of the study, we will conduct a dose-escalation study of the combination of CTO with lomustine among patients with recurrent malignant glioma (WHO grade III or IV). All patients will be bevacizumab-naïve. The dose escalation will be a standard "3+3" design to determine the MTD of CTO in combination with lomustine. The Phase 2 portion of this study will be a randomized screening study comparing CTO alone (Arm A) versus CTO with lomustine (Arm B) versus lomustine alone (Arm C) in patients with recurrent WHO grade IV malignant glioma who are bevacizumab-naïve. Subjects will be randomized with a treatment arm allocation ratio of 2:2:1. Based on the results of patients who have already taken part in Phase 1 of the study, the Principal Investigator has decided to reduce the dose of lomustine used in combination with CTO in this study by 25% of the FDA-approved dose, due to hematologic side effects (side effects related to lower than expected blood counts). Therefore, the dose of lomustine received in combination with CTO is approximately 75% of the standard recommended dose. Note: This study was terminated early due to funding issues. At the time of termination, the study was still in Phase 1 and no MTD for the combination of CTO and lomustine had been determined for this population. Phase 2 will not proceed.
