NBI-3001 Followed by Surgery in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme

Study Purpose

RATIONALE: NBI-3001 may be able to locate cancer cells and stop them from growing. This may be an effective treatment for glioblastoma multiforme. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare different regimens of NBI-3001 followed by surgery to remove the tumor in treating patients who have glioblastoma multiforme.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT00014677
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

OBJECTIVES:

  • I. Determine the safety, tolerability, and optimal clinical dose of interleukin-4(38-37)-PE38KDEL cytotoxin (NBI-3001) followed by surgical resection in patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.
OUTLINE: This is an open-label, dose-escalation, multicenter study. Patients receive interleukin-4(38-37)-PE38KDEL cytotoxin (NBI-3001) intratumorally as a continuous infusion over 4-5 days beginning within 12-36 hours after ventricular catheter placement. Patients then undergo surgical tumor resection approximately 3 weeks after drug infusion. Cohorts of 6 patients receive escalating doses of NBI-3001 until the maximum tolerated dose is determined. Patients are followed within 1 week and then at 8, 16, and 26 weeks. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 30-36 patients will be accrued for this study.
