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.

Detailed Description

Objectives of study are to determine activity of combo of Irinotecan + Temozolomide & to further characterize any toxicity associated w combo of Irinotecan + Temozolomide. Temozolomide administered orally at 200mg/m2 in fasting state 1hr prior to CPT-11 infusion. Temozolomide administered on day 1 of treatment cycle & every 24hrs thereafter for 5 days w treatment cycles repeated every 6wks. Treatment cycles may be repeated up to maxi of 3 cycles until occurrence of either unacceptable toxicity/evidence of disease progression. At end of 3rd cycle/if cycles are stopped early for toxicity or progression, subject will undergo radiation therapy. CPT-11 administered intravenously in fasting state over 90min. CPT-11 will begin 1hr after Temozolomide administration on day 1 of treatment cycle. CPT-11 administered on days 1, 8, 22, & 29 of 6wk treatment cycle. Treatment cycles may be repeated up to maxi of 3 cycles until occurrence of either unacceptable toxicity/evidence of disease progression. Dose of CPT-11 will be based on whether pt is receiving CYP3A4-inducing antiepileptic drugs due to increased drug clearance produced by these agents. For pts receiving EIAEDs including phenytoin, fosphenytoin, oxcarbazepine, phenobarbital/ primidone, CPT-11 dose of 325mg/m2 administered. For pts not receiving EIAEDs, CPT-11 dose of125 mg/m2 administered.

Subjects have newly diagnosed histologically proven supratentorial glioblastoma multiforme. Toxicities associated w CPT-11 are anemia, decreased blood counts, diarrhea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, tiredness, fever, mouth sores, dehydration, rash, itching, changes in skin color, swelling, numbness, tingling, dizziness, confusion, low blood pressure, sweating, hot flashes, hair loss, inflammation of liver, flu-like symptoms, decreased urine output, shortness of breath,& pneumonia. Low white blood cell & platelet counts may be associated w risk of infection/bleeding, respectively. Irinotecan has also caused birth defects in animals. Most frequent toxicities in earlier studies have been low white blood cells & diarrhea, & death has been seen from these & other side effects. Temozolomide has been well tolerated by both adults & children w most common toxicity being mild myelosuppression. Other, less likely, potential toxicities include nausea & vomiting, constipation, headache, alopecia, rash, burning sensation of skin, esophagitis, pain, diarrhea, lethargy, hepatotoxicity, anorexia, fatigue & hyperglycemia. Hypersensitivity reactions have not yet been noted w Temozolomide. As in case w many anti-cancer drugs, Temozolomide may be carcinogenic.

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
