A Study in Subjects With Recurrent Malignant Glioma

Study Purpose

An open-label phase 2, multicenter study in participants with recurrent malignant glioma.

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.

Interventional
Eligible Ages 18 Years - 99 Years
Gender All
More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria. 1. Histologically confirmed diagnosis of Grade 3 or 4 malignant glioma. 2. All subjects who have a first or second recurrence following primary management with surgical resection or biopsy, radiotherapy and up to 2 prior systemic treatments with addition of:

  • - No prior bevacizumab treatment is allowed for Cohort 1 and Cohort 2.
  • - Subjects must have disease progression following prior bevacizumab treatment for Cohort 3.
  • - For all cohorts, no prior anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF/VEGFR) therapy except for bevacizumab as specified above.
3. Karnofsky score of 70% or greater. 4. Adequately controlled blood pressure (BP) with or without antihypertensive medications, defined as BP less than 150/90 mmHg at screening and no change in antihypertensive medications within 1 week prior to the Screening Visit. 5. Adequate renal function, adequate bone marrow function, adequate blood coagulation function and adequate liver function, as defined in protocol. 6. No evidence of hemorrhage on the baseline magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan other than in those subjects who are stable grade 1.

Exclusion criteria:

1. Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding. 2. Subjects who received enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic agents within 14 days before the first dose of study drug (eg, carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital, primidone, or oxcarbazepine). 3. Active infection requiring intravenous antibiotics. 4. Therapeutic anti-coagulation with warfarin, aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or clopidogrel (low molecular weight heparin is acceptable). 5. Subjects with 24-hour urine protein greater than or equal to 1 gm. 6. Prior surgical resection within 4 weeks, or prior stereotactic biopsy within 2 weeks, of Screening Visit. 7. Prior radiotherapy within 12 weeks unless there is a new area of enhancement consistent with recurrent tumor outside of the radiation field, or there is biopsy-proven unequivocal viable tumor on histopathologic sampling. 8. Prior chemotherapy (6 weeks for nitrosoureas), or any investigational agent within 4 weeks unless the subject has recovered from all anticipated toxicities associated with that therapy; prior bevacizumab therapy (Cohorts 1 and 2); for Cohort 3, prior bevacizumab therapy within 3 weeks. 9. Significant cardiovascular impairment: history of congestive heart failure greater than New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II ; unstable angina; myocardial infarction or stroke within 6 months of the first dose of study drug; or cardiac arrhythmia requiring medical treatment. 10. Prolongation of QTc interval to greater than 480 msec. 11. Active hemoptysis (bright red blood of at least 1/2 teaspoon) within 3 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug.

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.

NCT01137604
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.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Cohort 1

Cohort 1 assessed participants with recurrent Grade 4 malignant glioma (ie, glioblastoma [GBM]) who were bevacizumab-naive. Participants were planned to be accrued in Cohort 1 and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive lenvatinib (experimental) or bevacizumab (active comparator). Cohort 1 - Bevacizumab Cohort 1 - Lenvatinib

Experimental: Cohort 2

Cohort 2 assessed participants with recurrent Grade 3 malignant glioma who were bevacizumab-naive. Participants in Cohort 2 were planned to be treated with lenvatinib.

Experimental: Cohort 3

Cohort 3 assessed participants with recurrent GBM who had disease progression following prior bevacizumab treatment. Participants in Cohort 3 were planned to be treated with lenvatinib.

Interventions

Drug: - Lenvatinib

24 mg lenvatinib capsules orally, once daily continuously in 28-day cycles until disease progression, development of unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent.

Drug: - Bevacizumab

Bevacizumab 10 mg/kg administered intravenously every 2 weeks in 28-day cycles until disease progression, development of unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent.
