Testing the Addition of an Anti-Cancer Drug, Mycophenolate Mofetil, to the Usual Treatment (Radiation Therapy and Temozolomide) for Advanced Brain Cancer

Официальное название

Mycophenolate Mofetil to Overcome Glioblastoma Resistance to Radiotherapy and Temozolomide

Обзор

This phase II/III trial tests how well adding mycophenolate mofetil, to the usual treatment with intensity-modulated radiation therapy and temozolomide works for the treatment of glioblastoma that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Mycophenolate mofetil blocks enzyme activity which can disrupt tumor activity and may make the tumor more sensitive to radiation and/or temozolomide. Intensity modulated radiation therapy is a type of 3-dimensional radiation therapy that uses computer-generated images to show the size and shape of the tumor. Thin beams of radiation of different intensities are aimed at the tumor from many angles. This type of radiation therapy reduces the damage to healthy tissue near the tumor. Temozolomide is a chemotherapy drug and in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It damages the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. Giving mycophenolate mofetil with intensity-modulated radiation therapy and temozolomide may be more effective than intensity-modulated radiation therapy and temozolomide alone for the treatment of advanced glioblastoma.

Подробное описание

The primary and secondary objectives of the study:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To compare the overall survival (OS) (phase III) and progression-free survival (PFS) (phase II) between the experimental arm (mycophenolate mofetil \[MMF\] + standard of care \[SOC\]) and the control arm (SOC).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare the proportion of patients with an objective tumor response (ORR), measured with Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) 2.0 criteria, between the two treatment arms.

II. To determine the adverse event profiles for each arm (using the current latest version of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events \[CTCAE\]).

III. To determine if there is an association between OS and PFS between treatment arms.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I: Patients under 70 years undergo intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), Monday-Friday for 30 treatments and patients greater than or equal to 70 years undergo hypofractionated radiation therapy, Monday-Friday for 15 treatments in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Starting 24 hours prior to radiation, patients also receive temozolomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) until the day of the last radiation treatment, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then undergo a 4-week rest period. Patients then receive temozolomide PO QD on days 1-5 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and blood sample collection throughout the study.

ARM II: Patients under 70 years undergo IMRT, Monday-Friday for 30 treatments and patients greater than or equal to 70 years undergo hypofractionated radiation therapy, Monday-Friday for 15 treatments in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Starting 24 hours prior to radiation, patients also receive temozolomide PO QD until the day of the last radiation treatment, and, starting on the first day of radiation, patients also receive mycophenolate mofetil PO twice daily (BID) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then undergo a 4-week rest period. Patients then receive temozolomide PO QD on days 1-5 and mycophenolate mofetil PO BID on days 1-28 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo MRI and blood sample collection throughout the study.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 10 weeks until 2 years then every 6 months until 5 years.
