A Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Tarceva in Patients With First Relapse of Grade IV Glioma (Glioblastoma Multiforme)

February 28, 2014 updated by: Genentech, Inc.

A Phase II, Multicenter, Open-Label Trial of the Safety and Efficacy of Tarceva (Erlotinib Hydrochloride) in Patients With First Relapse of Grade IV Glioma (Glioblastoma Multiforme)

This is a Phase II, open-label, multicenter trial of single-agent treatment with Tarceva in patients with histologically confirmed GBM in first relapse. This study seeks to estimate the objective response rate and will investigate whether response rate is related to EGFR amplification status.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Enrollment

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Signed informed consent
  • Age >= 18 years
  • Histologically confirmed GBM in first relapse
  • Disease progression in those patients following prior implantation with Gliadel(R) wafer(s) (polifeprosan 20 with carmustine implant) must be confirmed by biopsy. Prior therapy with Gliadel(R) is allowed only as a component of primary surgery. Patients with Gliadel(R) implants after a secondary resection are not eligible.
  • Radiographic evidence of disease progression, as assessed by the investigator, on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or CT scan
  • Bi-dimensionally measurable disease with a minimum measurement of 1 cm on MRI or CT scan performed within 14 days prior to study entry
  • Prior radiotherapy
  • Availability of tissue to allow central confirmation of GBM diagnosis (all original slides are preferred)
  • Availability of paraffin blocks or slides to allow determination of EGFR amplification status
  • Recovery from the toxic effects of a prior therapy, including 4 weeks from prior cytotoxic agents (except 6 weeks from prior nitrosoureas, 3 weeks from prior procarbazine administration, 2 weeks from prior vincristine, or 3 weeks from irinotecan [CPT-11] when given on a weekly schedule), 4 weeks from any prior investigational agent, and 1 week from prior non-cytotoxic agents (e.g., interferon, tamoxifen, thalidomide, 13-cis-retinoic acid, etc.)
  • If receiving corticosteroids, patients must be on a stable, non-increasing dose of corticosteroids for >= 2 weeks prior to baseline MRI scan
  • ECOG performance status of 0 or 1
  • Life expectancy > 12 weeks
  • Use of an effective means of contraception in males and in females of childbearing potential
  • Ability to comply with study and follow-up procedures If the decision is made at the end of Stage 1 to enroll patients with tumors known to be positive for EGFR amplification, the following additional inclusion criteria will be applied: Confirmation of diagnosis; Confirmation of positive EGFR amplification status

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior treatment with Gleevec (e.g., imatinib mesylate) or agents directed at EGFR (e.g., Iressa)
  • Prior treatment with Gliadel(R) following second (salvage or debulking) therapy
  • History of any other malignancy within 5 years (except non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix)
  • More than one prior chemotherapy regimen
  • ANC < 1500/uL
  • Platelets < 100,000/uL
  • Total bilirubin > 1.6 mg/dL
  • AST/ALT >= 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Creatinine > 1.5 x ULN
  • Pregnant or nursing females
  • Unstable systemic disease, including active infection, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to study entry, or serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication
  • Major surgical procedure 2 weeks prior to study entry or anticipation of need for major surgical procedure during the course of the study
  • Inability to take oral medication
