Efficacy of Two Temozolomide Regimens in Adjuvant Treatment of Patients With Brain High Grade Glioma

Study Purpose

This is a phase III, non-blinded, blocked randomized clinical trial. The study is conducted on 62 newly diagnosed patients with brain glioblastoma multiforme and anaplastic astrocytoma referring to the oncology clinics during March 2018 and March 2019. The patients will be randomized to 6-cycle and 12-cycle adjuvant Temozolomide groups using block randomization method (1:1).

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 - 70 Years
Gender	All

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.	NCT03633552
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.	Phase 3

Additional Details

This study aimed to compare the overall survival and progression free survival between 6 cycles and 12 cycles adjuvant Temozolomide regimens in patients with brain glioblastoma and anaplastic astrocytoma. The main inclusion criterion includes patients newly diagnosed with glioblastoma and anaplastic astrocytoma whose diagnosis is confirmed by histologic evaluation. The main exclusion criteria involve chronic renal, hepatic or cardiac failure. The patients will initially undergo surgery. Within 4 to 6 weeks after surgery, all patients will receive chemoradiation. After completion of chemoradiation, the cases will receive 12 cycles of adjuvant Temozolomide (prescribed as 150 to 200 milligram per square meter body surface per day for the first 5 days of every 28 days). In the control group, the patients will receive 6 cycles of adjuvant Temozolomide (in the same dosage). This is a phase III, non-blinded, blocked randomized clinical trial. The study is conducted on 62 newly diagnosed patients with brain glioblastoma multiforme and anaplastic astrocytoma referring to the oncology clinics during March 2018 and March 2019. The patients will be randomized to 6-cycle and 12-cycle adjuvant Temozolomide groups using block randomization method (1:1). This study will be conducted in the oncology clinic of Omid Hospital and Imam Reza Hospital, Mashhad. Blinding is not observed in this study. The primary endpoints of study are overall survival and progression free survival.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: 12-cycle arm

Active Comparator: 6-cycle arm

After completion of chemoradiation, the participants will receive 6 cycles of adjuvant Temozolomide (prescribed as 150 to 200 milligram per square meters body surface per day for the first 5 days of every 28 days).
