Vorinostat and Bortezomib in Treating Patients With Progressive, Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme

Phase II Study of Vorinostat (SAHA) in Combination With Bortezomib (PS-341) in Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme

This phase II trial is studying how well giving vorinostat together with bortezomib works in treating patients with progressive, recurrent glioblastoma multiforme. Vorinostat and bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving vorinostat together with bortezomib may kill more tumor cells.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Adult Giant Cell Glioblastoma; Adult Glioblastoma; Adult Gliosarcoma; Recurrent Adult Brain Tumor
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: vorinostat; Drug: bortezomib; Procedure: therapeutic conventional surgery

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the clinical efficacy of vorinostat (SAHA) and bortezomib, in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) at 6 months, in patients with progressive, recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the clinical efficacy of this regimen, in terms of overall survival, PFS at 12 months, time to progression, and objective response rate, in these patients.

II. To identify molecular predictors of response in baseline tumor specimens from these patients.

III. To determine molecular changes in response to this regimen in tumor specimens from patients undergoing surgery.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to planned surgery (no [stratum 1] vs yes [stratum 2]).

STRATUM 1 (NOT UNDERGOING SURGERY): Patients receive oral vorinostat (SAHA) once daily on days 1-14 and bortezomib intravenously (IV) on days 1, 4, 8, and 11. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

STRATUM 2 (UNDERGOING SURGERY): Patients receive oral SAHA once daily for 2 days prior to surgery and then on the day of surgery. Patients also receive bortezomib IV on the day of surgery. After receiving the 3rd dose of SAHA, patients undergo surgery to remove the tumor. Beginning at least 7 days after surgery, patients receive SAHA and bortezomib as in stratum 1.

Tumor tissue samples are collected at baseline and during surgery (stratum 2) for correlative laboratory studies. Tissue samples are analyzed for baseline total and phosphorylated AKT and p27^KIp1 expression by IHC. Tissue samples from patients in stratum 2 are also analyzed for histone acetylation status; markers of proteasome inhibition; total and phosphorylated Bax expression by IHC; and gene expression profiles.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months thereafter.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Stratum 1 (not undergoing surgery); Patients receive oral vorinostat (SAHA) once daily on days 1-14 and bortezomib IV on days 1, 4, 8, and 11. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.	Drug: vorinostat; Given orally; Other Names: SAHA; Zolinza; L-001079038; suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid; Drug: bortezomib; Given IV; Other Names: MLN341; LDP 341; VELCADE
Experimental: Stratum 2 (undergoing surgery); Patients receive oral SAHA once daily for 2 days prior to surgery and then on the day of surgery. Patients also receive bortezomib IV on the day of surgery. After receiving the 3rd dose of SAHA, patients undergo surgery to remove the tumor. Beginning at least 7 days after surgery, patients receive SAHA and bortezomib as in stratum 1.	Drug: vorinostat; Given orally; Other Names: SAHA; Zolinza; L-001079038; suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid; Drug: bortezomib; Given IV; Other Names: MLN341; LDP 341; VELCADE; Procedure: therapeutic conventional surgery; Patient undergoes surgery

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Progression-free Survival at 6 Months	Estimated using the Binomial point estimator (number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients). A patient is classified as a success if alive and progression-free at 6 months. For patients with bidimensionally measurable disease (measurable disease), progression is defined as > 25% increase in product of perpendicular diameters of contrast enhancement or mass or appearance of new lesions. For patients without bidimensionally measurable disease (evaluable disease), progression is defined as unequivocal increase in size of contrast enhancement or increase in mass effect as agreed upon independently by primary physician and quality control physicians or appearance of new lesions.	At 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Overall Survival	Estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival curve.	From study registration to date of death due to any cause or last follow-up (up to 5 years)
Time to Progression	Estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival curve. Patients who died were considered to have disease progression at the time of death unless there was documented evidence that no progression occurred before death. For patients with bidimensionally measurable disease (measurable disease), progression is defined as > 25% increase in product of perpendicular diameters of contrast enhancement or mass or appearance of new lesions. For patients without bidimensionally measurable disease (evaluable disease), progression is defined as unequivocal increase in size of contrast enhancement or increase in mass effect as agreed upon independently by primary physician and quality control physicians or appearance of new lesions.	From study registration to date of progression (up to 5 years)
Proportion of Confirmed Tumor Response Defined as an Objective Status of Confirmed Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), or Regression (REGR) on Two Consecutive Evaluations	Confidence intervals for the true proportion will be calculated using the exact binomial method. Measurable patients must achieve at least a 50% reduction in the product of perpendicular diameters of contrast enhancement or mass with no new lesions with the patient being on stable or decreased steroid dose. Evaluable patients must achieve unequivocal reduction in size of contrast-enhancement or decrease in mass effect as agreed upon independently by primary physician and quality control physicians; no new lesions. Patient should be on stable or decreased steroid dose.	Assessed up to 5 years
