Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Phase II Trial of Poly-ICLC for Low-Grade Gliomas (NCT NCT04544007)

NCT ID: NCT04544007

Last Updated: 2025-03-21

Results Overview

Evaluate the efficacy of poly-ICLC in pediatric NF1 patients with progressive low-grade glioma (LGG) as measured by objective tumor response rate (CR+PR), using Response Assessment in Pediatric Neuro-Oncology (RAPNO) criteria. Complete Response (CR) is complete disappearance of the target lesion on T2 weighted and T2 weighted fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging and contrast imaging using baseline MRI or best recorded response for comparison; Partial Response (PR) is 50% or greater reduction in the target lesion on T2 weighted and T2 weighted-FLAIR imaging using the baseline MRI for comparison. Response will be assessed through the time of the post-12th cycle tumor assessment, or through the last tumor assessment time during this nominal period for patients in follow-up but who have withdrawn from protocol therapy, or through the last available tumor assessment for patients who are lost to follow-up during this time.

This is a phase II, prospective, longitudinal, multi-center trial of poly-ICLC (Hiltonol) treatment for progressive low-grade gliomas in pediatric patients with NF1. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of poly-ICLC in pediatric NF1 patients with progressive low-grade glioma (LGG) as measured by objective tumor response rate (CR+PR) within the first 48 weeks (12 cycles) of therapy.

Timeframe: First 48 weeks

Evaluate the efficacy of poly-ICLC in pediatric NF1 patients with progressive low-grade glioma (LGG) as measured by objective tumor response rate (CR+PR), using Response Assessment in Pediatric Neuro-Oncology (RAPNO) criteria. Complete Response (CR) is complete disappearance of the target lesion on T2 weighted and T2 weighted fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging and contrast imaging using baseline MRI or best recorded response for comparison; Partial Response (PR) is 50% or greater reduction in the target lesion on T2 weighted and T2 weighted-FLAIR imaging using the baseline MRI for comparison. Response will be assessed through the time of the post-12th cycle tumor assessment, or through the last tumor assessment time during this nominal period for patients in follow-up but who have withdrawn from protocol therapy, or through the last available tumor assessment for patients who are lost to follow-up during this time.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months

Population: 1 patient progressed on day 170. The other 2 patients are censored on day 134 and day 849 respectively.

Determine progression free survival (PFS) in pediatric NF1 patients with progressive LGG treated with poly-ICLC. Progression free survival (PFS), defined as the time from start of treatment to the first occurrence of tumor recurrence, tumor progression, occurrence of a second malignancy, or death from any cause. Patients event-free at last follow-up will be censored in analysis. PFS will be determined at 12, 24 and 60 months.

Evaluate the efficacy of poly-ICLC in pediatric NF1 patients with progressive LGG as measured by best objective tumor response rate (CR+PR) within 24 cycles of therapy. Objective response rate (defined as CR or PR) after 24 cycles of treatment. Response will be assessed through the time of the post-24th cycle tumor assessment, or through the last tumor assessment time during this nominal period for patients in follow-up, but who have withdrawn from protocol therapy, or through the last available tumor assessment for patients who are lost to follow-up during this time.
