Multiparametric MR-Guided High Dose Adaptive Radiotherapy With Concurrent Temozolomide in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2024-01-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This study will investigate whether or not intensified radiation therapy adapted during the radiation treatment course to high-risk, treatment-resistant tumor regions will improve overall survival in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) compared to conventional chemoradiotherapy.

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Details

• Lead Sponsor: University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center
• Treatments: Temozolomide

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Provision of signed and dated informed consent form

• Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study

• Newly diagnosed, histologically-confirmed supratentorial WHO grade IV gliomas including glioblastoma (all variants) and gliosarcoma. Prior low-grade glioma without prior RT, now with malignant progression are eligible.

• Karnofsky performance status >=70

• Minimal life expectancy of 12 weeks

• Adequate bone marrow reserve (Hemoglobin ≥ 10 g/dL, absolute neutrophils ≥ 1500/mm3, platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm3), acceptable liver function (total bilirubin ≤ 2 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (unless elevated bilirubin is related to Gilbert syndrome), and ALT/AST ≤ 5 x ULN) and renal function (serum creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dL) within 14 day prior to registration. Eligibility level for hemoglobin may be reached by transfusion.

• Maximal contiguous diameter of tumor based on high b-value diffusion MRI and DCE perfusion MRI ≤5 cm

• Patients must be registered within 6 weeks of most recent resection

• Females of child-bearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 14 days prior to registration. Patients with reproductive potential must agree to use an effective contraceptive method during treatment and study participation.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Recurrent glioma, or tumor involving the brainstem or cerebellum

• Prior use of Gliadel wafers or any other intratumoral or intracavitary treatment is not permitted. Prior chemotherapy for a different cancer is allowable if interval since last treatment cycle completion is >3 years.

• Evidence of CSF dissemination (positive CSF cytology for malignancy or MRI findings consistent with CSF dissemination)

• Evidence of severe concurrent disease requiring treatment

• Prior invasive malignancy (except non-melanoma skin cancer or non-life limiting invasive malignancy that may not require treatment, such as low-risk prostate cancer) unless disease free for a minimum of 3 years (for example, carcinoma in situ of breast, oral cavity or cervix are all permissible)

• Patients unable to undergo MRI exams (i.e. patients with non-compatible devices such as cardiac pacemakers, other implanted electronic devices, metallic prostheses, or ferromagnetic prostheses [e.g. pins in artificial joints and surgical pins/clips], or unable to receive gadolinium for MRI, as per the standard Department of Radiology MRI screening criteria)

• Patients treated with previous cranial or head/neck radiotherapy leading to significant radiation field overlap as determined by treating physician

• Multifocal disease (>1 lobe of involvement) of discontiguous contrast enhancing disease as seen on conventional MRI

• Pregnancy or lactation
