Brief summary
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of tanibirumab in participants with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Who is it for? You may be eligible to join this study if you are aged 19 or over, and have been diagnosed with recurrent GBM following treatment with temozolomide chemotherapy with radiotherapy. Study details Tumour angiogenesis is the process that leads to the formation of blood vessels in a tumour, which in turn support cancer cell survival, local tumour growth, and the development of distant metastasis. The investigational drug tanibirumab (TTAC-0001) interferes with the angiogenesis process, inhibiting the formation of the blood vessels and thereby starving the tumour cells of the nutrients and oxygen required for growth. Participants in this study will be enrolled sequentially to arm 1, 2 or 3 with participants enrolled to arm 2 and 3 only after a safety evaluation of the previous arm. Each patient will only be allocated to one arm depending on the time of enrolment. All participants will receive tanibirumab in 3 or 4 doses, one per week, per cycle, for a total of up to 1 year, disease progression or study withdrawal. Throughout the study safety will be assessed by monitoring and assessment of adverse events, vital signs, laboratory tests including testing for immunogenicity (the ability of the study drug to provoke an immune response). Tumour response will be assessed by evaluating MRI scans performed every 8 weeks during treatment and at treatment termination. Blood sampling for drug interaction and distribution within the body will also be collected. It is hoped that the findings of this trial will develop our understanding of the safety of tanibirumab and of it's efficacy as a potential drug treatment for recurrent glioblastoma.
Interventions
3 treatment arms: Arm 1 - (tanibirumab 8 mg/kg days 1, 8, 15 /4 weeks): 1 intravenous infusion/week, 3 infusions per cycle and 1 week observation. Treatment period: maximum one year Arm 2 - (tanibirumab 12mg/kg days 1, 8, 15 /4 weeks): 1 intravenous infusion/week, 3 infusions per cycle and 1 week observation. Treatment period: maximum one year Arm 3 - (tanibirumab 12mg/kg weekly): 1 intravenous infusion/week, 4 infusions per cycle and no observation period. Treatment period: maximum one year All doses will be administered at study sites.
