Intratumorally-Administered Topotecan Using CED in High Grade Glioma Undergoing Stereotactic Biopsy

• Status: Withdrawn
• Trial end date: 2018-11-19
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with topotecan by an alternative method, direct delivery into brain tumors, is safe and well tolerated. The Cleveland Multiport Catheter is a new, investigational device that will be used to deliver topotecan into your brain tumor. A second purpose of this study is to determine whether the Cleveland Multiport Catheter can be used effectively and safely to deliver topotecan into your brain tumor.

This study will also determine the best dose of topotecan to deliver to your tumor with use of the Cleveland Multiport Catheter and will also examine how your tumor responds to treatment with topotecan.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Histologically confirmed diagnosis of supratentorial WHO Grade III or IV Glioma (High Grade Glioma) that has undergone surgical biopsy or resection followed by adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, that has evidence of recurrence or progression based on imaging studies and a stereotactic biopsy is indicated for confirmation of recurrence/progression

• Karnofsky Performance Status 70-100

• MRI demonstration of a stereotactically accessible enhancing mass that does not require resection to relieve clinically significant mass effect

• Patient understands the procedures and agrees to comply with the study requirements by providing written informed consent

• Laboratory values within the following ranges:

• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500 / μL

• Platelet count ≥ 100,000 / μL

• Hemoglobin ≥ 10 g / dL

• prothrombin time (PT) / partial thromboplastin time (PTT) not above institutional norms

• Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of at least 50 mL/min

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patient is mentally or legally incapacitated at the time of the study

• Known HIV(+) or has been diagnosed with AIDS

• Participation in another investigational drug study in the prior 4 weeks

• Positive pregnancy test in a female

• Patient, in the opinion of the investigator, is likely to be poorly compliant

• Diffuse subependymal or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) disease

• Tumors involving the cerebellum

• Tumor enhancement involving both hemispheres

• Active infection requiring treatment

• Unexplained febrile illness

• Radiation or chemotherapy within 4 weeks of enrollment

• Systemic diseases associated with unacceptable anesthesia or operative risk
