Gefitinib and Radiation Therapy in Treating Children With Newly Diagnosed Gliomas

15 de maio de 2014 atualizado por: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

Phase I/II Trial of Gefitinib and Radiation in Pediatric Patients Newly Diagnosed With Brain Stem Tumors or Incompletely Resected Supratentorial Malignant Gliomas With Phase II Limited to Brain Stem Tumors

Biological therapies such as gefitinib may interfere with the growth of the tumor cells and may make the tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. This phase I/II trial is studying how well giving gefitinib together with radiation therapy works in treating children with newly diagnosed glioma.

Descrição detalhada

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To define the safety of gefitinib administered in conjunction with irradiation in children with newly diagnosed non-disseminated diffuse intrinsic brainstem gliomas and newly diagnosed incompletely resected supratentorial malignant gliomas (STMG) not receiving enzyme inducing anticonvulsant drugs (EIACDs).

II. To define the safety of gefitinib in children with newly diagnosed, incompletely resected STMG receiving EIACDs.

III. To assess the safety and efficacy of gefitinib given with radiation therapy in children newly diagnosed with a brainstem glioma as measured by progression-free survival and to estimate the survival distribution.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare hemodynamic magnetic resonance (MR) parameters to metabolic fludeoxyglucose F 18 (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) scanning and correlate both with clinical response or progression in this population.

II. To characterize the expression of ErbB1 receptors in tissue from STMG patients using immunohistochemistry and western blot assays.

III. To characterize the pharmacokinetics of gefitinib in the above patient groups and determine the effects of EIACD on the pharmacokinetics.

IV. To explore the pharmacogenetic polymorphisms for gefitinib (e.g., CYP3A4/5 and BCRP) and relate them to gefitinib pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (phenotype-genotype).

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, dose-escalation study of gefitinib (Phase I closed to accrual effective 10/27/2003). Patients are stratified according to the following:

Stratum 1A: Intrinsic brain stem glioma; not receiving concurrent enzyme-inducing anticonvulsant drugs (EIACDs) Stratum 1B: Incompletely resected supratentorial malignant gliomas (STMG); not receiving concurrent EIACDs Stratum 2: Incompletely resected STMG; receiving concurrent EIACDs.

Phase I portion (patients in strata 1A, 1B, and 2) (phase I closed to accrual effective 10/27/2003): Patients receive oral gefitinib once daily. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for 13 courses (1 year). Patients also receive standard brain irradiation once daily, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks beginning concurrently with initiation of the first course of gefitinib. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of gefitinib until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.

Phase II portion (patients in stratum 1A): Once the MTD or the recommended Phase-II dose is determined, additional patients who have newly diagnosed brain stem gliomas (BSG) are treated at the MTD or the recommended Phase-II dose.

Patients are followed for three months after the last protocol treatment for those enrolled strictly on the phase I component. Patients contributing to the phase II portion are followed until the earliest of date of death or three years after initiation of protocol therapy.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Considering the seven dose levels to be investigated in three strata, where each dose level can accrue up to six patients, a total of 126 patients (42 for each strata) may be accrued for this study within 2 years. (Phase I closed to accrual effective 10/27/2003). A total of 40 patients including the patients treated at the maximum tolerated dose or the recommended Phase-II dose during Phase I will be accrued for phase II of this study within 10 months.

Descrição da medida
Prazo
Number of Participants in Phase I Stratum 1A With Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLT) Observed During the First 8 Weeks of Gefitinib Therapy
Prazo: Day 1 of gefitinib therapy to end of week 8
The dose limiting toxicity (DLT) analysis population consists of stratum 1A phase I participants who developed DLT during the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) estimation period (course 1 and 2) or who completed the MTD estimation period without DLTs. DLTs observed during courses 1 and 2 were used to estimate the MTD based on the tradional 3+3 design, where a dose is considered a safe dose only when 0 out of 3, or at most 1 out of 6 patients has DLTs. When two or more patients in a group of 2 to 6 patients had DLTs, then that dose level was considered to be too toxic.
Day 1 of gefitinib therapy to end of week 8
Median Progression-free Survival in Newly Diagnosed Brain Stem Gliomas
Prazo: Assessed pre-radiation, every 8 weeks for 13 courses of therapy, and then every 12 weeks
Progression-free survival is defined as the interval from intiation of treatment to the earliest of disease progression (tumor increase of 25% over baseline tumor measurement; appearance of new lesion(s); or progressive/worsening neurlogical status) or death for patients who failed or to the last date of follow-up for patients without failure
Assessed pre-radiation, every 8 weeks for 13 courses of therapy, and then every 12 weeks
Median Survival in Newly Diagnosed Brain Stem Gliomas
Prazo: Assessed from the start of therapy until three years after initiation of gefitinib therapy
Overall survival is defined as the interval from initiation of treatment to death or date of last contact for surviving patients
Assessed from the start of therapy until three years after initiation of gefitinib therapy

Descrição da medida
Prazo
Razão média de tumor para substância cinzenta medida na linha de base
Prazo: Linha de base
Este estudo tenta caracterizar os parâmetros de neuroimagem da tomografia por emissão de pósitrons. Para cada paciente, a imagem axial através do tumor contendo a atividade máxima por pixel correspondente à maior captação de FluoroDeoxyGlucose (FDG) foi identificada e uma região de interesse (ROI) foi desenhada com base na definição de FDG do tumor. Os valores médios de pixel dentro do tumor ROI foram normalizados por aqueles para matéria cinzenta normal para fornecer proporções de tumor/substância cinzenta. Cada paciente tem um valor médio de proporção de tumor para massa cinzenta e a mediana desses valores entre os pacientes é relatada.

Baseline and two weeks post completion of radiation
Mean Tumor to White Matter Ratio Measured at Baseline
Prazo: Baseline
This study attempts to characterize neuroimaging parameters from positron emission tomography. For each patient, the axial image through the tumor containing the maximum activity per pixel corresponding to the highest FluoroDeoxyGlucose (FDG) uptake was identified and a region of interest (ROI) was drawn based on the FDG definition of the tumor. The mean pixel values within the tumor ROI were normalized by those for normal white matter to provide ratios of tumor/gray matter. Each patient has a mean tumor to white matter ratio value and the median of these values across patients is reported.
