Clinical Study of Apatinib Combined With Temozolomide in the Treatment of Uncontrolled or Repeated High-grade Gliomas

Study Purpose

Gliomas are the most common malignant tumors of the central nervous system and are highly invasive. Gliomas account for one-third of central nervous system tumors in adults and children. Interstitial astrocytomas and glioblastomas are also called high-grade gliomas, accounting for 77.5% of all gliomas.

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.

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.

High-grade Gliomas
Additional Details

Temozolomide combined with concurrent radiotherapy, followed by 6 cycles of temozolomide adjuvant chemotherapy, can prolong the patient's survival, and the 2-year survival rate has increased from 10.4% to 26.5%. Great progress has been made, but the prognosis for glioma patients remains poor. For patients with poor-quality high-grade gliomas, more effective new treatments are urgently needed to achieve the purpose of survival benefit. Targeting VEGFs to inhibit tumor angiogenesis has shown good efficacy in a variety of tumors including colon cancer, gastric cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer and breast cancer. However, for gliomas, anti-tumor angiogenesis drugs can improve patient OS Evidence related to PFS is still scarce. Compared with other targeted drugs with multiple kinase targets, apatinib has not only an advantage in price but also less side effects. Therefore, based on relevant data from previous studies, a basic and clinical study of this apatinib combined with temozolomide for high-grade gliomas was performed.
