BPM31510 in Treating Patients With Recurrent High-Grade Glioma Previously Treated With Bevacizumab

A Phase I Study of BPM31510 Plus Vitamin K in Subjects With High-Grade Glioma That Has Recurred on a Bevacizumab Containing Regimen

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ubidecarenone injectable nanosuspension (BPM31510) in treating patients with high-grade glioma (anaplastic astrocytoma or glioblastoma) that has come back and have been previously treated with bevacizumab. BPM31510 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Glioblastoma; Gliosarcoma; Recurrent Glioblastoma; Astrocytoma of Brain
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis; Other: Pharmacological Study; Drug: Ubidecarenone Injectable Nanosuspension

Detailed Description

Primary Objective:

• Assess the safety and tolerability of BPM31510 plus vitamin K in subjects with high-grade glioma(HGG), defined as anaplastic astrocytoma (AA) or glioblastoma (GB) that has recurred on a BEV containing regimen.

Secondary Objectives:

• To evaluate plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) when BPM31510 plus vitamin K is given to subjects with HGG recurrent on a BEV containing regimen.

Exploratory Objectives:

• Estimate the overall survival in subjects with HGG recurrent on a BEV containing regimen from the 1st day of infusion of BPM31510 plus vitamin K to death.
• To evaluate the effects of BPM31510 plus vitamin K on shifting HGG metabolism to aerobic respiration by PET imaging.
• To evaluate the effects of BPM1510 plus vitamin K on MRI imaging by Response Assessment in Neuro Oncology (RANO) criteria [specifically progression free survival (PFS) and response rate (RR)].
• To evaluate plasma pharmacodynamics (PD) when BPM31510 plus vitamin K is given to subjects with HGG recurrent on a BEV containing regimen.

• Study Type: Interventional

  • International Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 x ULN
  • Partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤ 1.5 x ULN
• Subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use hormonal or barrier birth control with spermicidal gel to avoid pregnancy during the study
• Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document

Exclusion Criteria:

• Has a history of spontaneous or tumor related cerebral hemorrhage; or has cerebral hemorrhage as determined by the screening FDG PET CT and MRI. This does not include stable post operative blood products seen on a gradient echo MRI sequence.

  • Active heart disease including myocardial infarction within previous 3 months
  • Symptomatic coronary artery disease
  • Arrhythmias not controlled by medication
  • Unstable angina pectoris
  • Uncontrolled or symptomatic congestive heart failure (NYHA class III and IV) 3.2.3 Uncontrolled or severe coagulopathies or a history of clinically significant bleeding within the past 6 months, including any of the following, but not limited to:
  • Epistaxis
  • Hemoptysis
  • Hematochezia
  • Hematuria
  • Gastrointestinal bleeding
  • Spontaneous or tumor related intracranial hemorrhage
• Known predisposition for bleeding such as von Willebrand's disease or other such condition(s)

• Uncontrolled concurrent illness that would limit compliance with study requirements, including any of the following, but limited to:

  • Uncontrolled infection.
  • Psychiatric illness/social situations
• Prior malignancy except for non melanoma skin cancer and carcinoma in situ (of the cervix or bladder), unless diagnosed and definitively treated more than 3 years prior to 1st dose of investigational drug

• Receiving any of the following medications:

  • Therapeutic doses of any anticoagulant, including low molecular weight heparin (LMWH). Concomitant use of warfarin, even at prophylactic doses, is prohibited
  • Digoxin, digitoxin, lanatoside C, or any type of digitalis alkaloids.
  • Colony stimulating factors (CSFs) that cannot be held during the monitoring period for dose limiting toxicities (DLT)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Percentage of patients with dose-limiting toxicities defined as thrombocytopenia >= grade 3, hemorrhage >= grade 3, and INR elevation >= grade 2 assessed by CTCAE v4.03	Will be tabulated at each dose, along with the result of the pooled adjacent violators algorithm as implemented in the Modified Toxicity Probability Interval (equal weights, and the weighted mean solver).	Up to 28 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Incidence of adverse events graded according to the Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version (v)4.03	Will be tabulated separately for each dose cohort, by Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) major organ system and severity.	Up to 30 days after last dose of BPM3150

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Brain tumor metabolism as measured by PET	Standardized uptake value (SUV) of the HGG will be measured. SUV is the standard PET measure.	Up to 8 weeks
Overall survival (OS)	Kaplan-Meier survival estimates for OS will be presented for data at the maximum tolerated dose, with a 95% confidence interval using Greenwood's formula at 3.5 months and 7 months.	From the date of BPM31510 initiation to death, assessed for up to 3 years
