Trial Outcomes & Findings for Bevacizumab and Irinotecan in Treating Young Patients With Recurrent, Progressive, or Refractory Glioma, Medulloblastoma, Ependymoma, or Low Grade Glioma (NCT NCT00381797)
NCT ID: NCT00381797
Last Updated: 2017-11-28
Results Overview
Objective response is either a complete response or a partial response observed during the first four courses of treatment and sustained for 8 weeks. The objective response rate will be reported separately for patients with recurrent/progressive malignant glioma(Stratum A), recurrent/progressive instrinsic brain stem tumors(Stratum B), recurrent/progressive medulloblastoma(Stratum C), and recurrent/progressive ependymoma(Stratum D). CR is complete disappearance of all enhancing tumor. PR is \>= 50% reduction in tumor size. This outcome measures is not defined for the Stratum E in the protocol.

High-grade Gliomas
Recurrent, progressive or refractory high-grade gliomas (Stratum A): The only patients with Recurrent, progressive or refractory high-grade gliomas were treated in this arm. Therapy will begin with single-agent bevacizumab 10 mg/kg given intravenously (i.v) on day 1 and day 15 (+/- 24 hours) followed by MR-perfusion/diffusion imaging within 24-48 hours following the 2nd dose of bevacizumab. The first dose of irinotecan will be given i.v following this MR-perfusion scan. Subsequently, bevacizumab and irinotecan will be given every two weeks. The irinotecan dose will depend on whether the patient is on an enzyme-inducing anticonvulsant drug (EIACD). The irinotecan dose will be 250 mg/m2 (\~ 80 % of dose tolerated by adults in the Duke Phase II study of bevacizumab plus irinotecan) every two weeks for those on EIACDs. If the patient is not on an EIACD, the starting dose will be 125 mg/m2.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: From the first imaging after treatment up to 2 yearsPopulation: Two patients in the Stratum A,one patient in the Stratum C, and one patient in the Stratum D were inevaluable for this outcome measure.
Cumulative incidence of sustained objective response provides a percentage of participants experiencing the event of interest at a given follow-up time point (for example, 6-months, 1-year, etc.) in the presence of competing events such as progressive disease or death, and it is estimated using the event data for both the event of interest and the competing events experienced by the study participants. In this sense, it is different than the incidence rates estimated in epidemiological studies in terms of 'incidences per 1000 person years. 6-month Cumulative incidence of sustained objective responses will be reported separately for each stratum.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: From start of treatment until the earliest of progressive disease, death, second malignancy or off study OR up to 2 yearsPopulation: Patients had Flair volume at Pre-treatment and at least one on treatment.
Using Cox proportional hazards models, the association of tumor volume based on FLAIR images with PFS will be investigated for those strata that have a sufficient number of participants with volume FLAIR measurements. Volumetric magnetic resonance imaging is performed to investigate surrogate markers of tumor growth. Volume FLAIR measurements were longitudinal. As we are not comparing the strata, analyses will be done in each stratum separately, and thus we cannot report the Cox model results in the Statistical Analysis section. We consider these estimates 'descriptive' within each stratum. In this analysis, the hazard ratio is a relative measure of likelihood that a study participant experiences the event of interest compared to another participant who has a one-unit lower Log-transformed tumor volume based on FLAIR. The Cox survival model provides the mean hazard ratio along with its 95% confidence interval, which we report below.

Blood specimens were collected on the days listed for pharmacokinetic studies for Bevacizumab. These specimens were analyzed to produce steady-state plasma Bevacizumab concentration-time data in study participants. The concentration-time data were analyzed to provide an estimate of the volume of distribution. The data were collected but the analyses of the PK data were conducted by Genentech using a broader cohort of pediatric patients from multiple trials in the paper "Bevacizumab dosing strategy in paediatric cancer patients based on population pharmacokinetic analysis with external validation" published by British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology ,2016 volume 81(1):148-160. The estimates of the volume of distribution were calculated by the model described in the paper.

Blood specimens were collected on the days listed for pharmacokinetic studies for Bevacizumab. These specimens were analyzed to produce steady-state plasma Bevacizumab concentration-time data in study participants. The concentration-time data were analyzed to provide an estimate of the systemic clearance. The data were collected but the analyses of the PK data were conducted by Genentech using a broader cohort of pediatric patients from multiple trials in the paper "Bevacizumab dosing strategy in paediatric cancer patients based on population pharmacokinetic analysis with external validation" published by British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2016 volume 81(1):148-160. The estimates of the systemic clearance were calculated by the model described in the paper.

Recurrent or progressive low grade glioma(Stratum E):The only patients with recurrent or progressive low grade glioma were treated in this arm. Therapy will begin with single-agent bevacizumab 10 mg/kg given intravenously (i.v) on day 1 and day 15 (+/- 24 hours) followed by MR-perfusion/diffusion imaging within 24-48 hours following the 2nd dose of bevacizumab. The first dose of irinotecan will be given i.v following this MR-perfusion scan. Subsequently, bevacizumab and irinotecan will be given every two weeks. The irinotecan dose will depend on whether the patient is on an enzyme-inducing anticonvulsant drug (EIACD). The irinotecan dose will be 250 mg/m2 (\~ 80 % of dose tolerated by adults in the Duke Phase II study of bevacizumab plus irinotecan) every two weeks for those on EIACDs. If the patient is not on an EIACD, the starting dose will be 125 mg/m2.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: From start of treatment until the earliest of progressive disease, death, second malignancy or off studyPopulation: The number of patients in strata C and D was not sufficient to perform the analysis exploring the association of hypoxia inducible factor-2alpha expression with progression-free survival. Thus the association analysis was performed for the patients in Stratum E only.
The association of hypoxia inducible factor-2alpha expression with progression-free survival will be investigated for those strata that have a sufficient number of participants with hypoxia inducible factor-2alpha measurements. The hazard ratio was reported for patients who had hypoxia inducible factor-2alpha expression.
