Pilot Trial for Treatment of Recurrent Glioblastoma

Study Purpose

This will be a single-arm open-label prospective pilot feasibility trial recruiting 10 adult patients with recurrent glioblastoma who are assigned to receive the personalized study treatment based on the genetic profile of their recurrent GBM tumor resected at the time of surgery. It will be aimed to gather preliminary information on the study intervention and the feasibility of conducting a full-scale trial.

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.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Study participant has provided informed consent prior to initiation of any study specific activities/procedures. 2. Adult participants, male and female, aged ≥18 who have a pathologically confirmed IDH-wild type glioblastoma, with first or second progression of the tumor, after initial treatment with radiation therapy and temozolomide. 3. Recurrence is amenable to resection. 4. Performance status: ECOG ≤2. 5. Women of child bearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum (or urine) pregnancy test at the time of screening. WOCBP is defined as any female who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone surgical sterilization (hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy or bilateral salpingectomy) and is not postmenopausal. Menopause is defined as 12 months of amenorrhea in a woman over age 45 years in the absence of other biological or physiological causes. 6. Patients of childbearing potential must adhere to the contraception requirement from screening throughout the study period up to 180 days after the last dose of study intervention. Women/men of childbearing potential must have agreed to use two highly effective contraceptive methods. In addition to routine contraceptive methods such as condom use, oral contraceptive, intrauterine device (IUD), intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS), "effective contraception" also includes heterosexual celibacy and surgery intended to prevent pregnancy (or with a side-effect of pregnancy prevention) defined as a hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy or bilateral tubal ligation, or vasectomy/vasectomized partner. However, if at any point a previously celibate patient chooses to become heterosexually active during the time period for use of contraceptive measures outlined in the protocol, he/she is responsible for beginning contraceptive measures. Note: abstinence is acceptable if this is established and preferred contraception for the patient and is accepted as a local standard. 7. Able to undergo brain MRIs. 8. Females must not be breastfeeding, throughout the study period up to 180 days after the last dose of study intervention. 9. Male patients should agree to not donate sperm during the study for at least 6 months until discontinuation of study drug.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with history of abnormal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF≤ 45%). 2. Pregnant, breast-feeding, unwilling/unable to comply with contraception requirements. 3. Patients unable to consent. 4. Abnormal (grade ≥2 CTCAE, version 5.0) laboratory values for hematology, renal, and liver function including: 1. Hemoglobin <10, 2. Neutrophils <1.5, 3. Platelets <75, 4. ALT/AST >3x ULN, 5. Bilirubin >1.5 x ULN, 6. eGFR <60. 5. Patients with significant or recent gastrointestinal disorders with diarrhea as a major symptom (e.g., Crohn's disease, malabsorption or severe diarrhea of any etiology) must be excluded from the clinical trial (Afatanib is not recommended in this patient population). 6. Patients with a history of ILD (interstitial lung disease) must be excluded. 7. Patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh C). 8. A significantly abnormal ECG (baseline QTcF interval > 450 msec). 9. Patients with rare hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption. 10. Patients with known pre-existing pleural effusion. 11. Active hepatitis B or C infection and/or known history of HIV infection. 12. Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with compliance with the requirements of the trial. 13. Subject will not be available for protocol-required study visits or procedures, to the best of the subject's and investigator's knowledge. 14. Is currently participating and receiving study therapy or has participated in a study of an investigational agent and received study therapy or used an investigational device within 4 weeks from the date of signing the informed consent form. 15. Patients who are hypersensitive to any ingredients in the formulation of the study drugs or their excipients. 16. Patients receiving active treatment for a different cancer. 17. If recent bacterial infection, patients need to have completed antibiotic course prior to commencing study drug. 18. If recent COVID-19 infection, patients must have recovered from it prior to commencing study drug. 19. Patients on strong CYP3A/p-gp inducers (for example, carbamazepine and phenytoin).

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.

NCT05432518
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.
