Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of this trial is the evaluation of response of rPB in children, adolescents and young adults to the RIST protocol.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are • Overall survival • Response rate (RR) after 4 and 8 courses of irinotecan and temozolomide in the RIST treatment arm • Toxicity of this combination of drugs in children, adolescents and young adults with rPB • Duration of response of this treatment regimen • Safety and tolerability of the investigational treatment • Assessment of quality of life ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS), which is defined as the time interval between randomization and date of progression according to • Imaging criteria to o MRI, CT or o CSF evaluations or • date of death of any cause. Patients with no progression until end of study or patients lost to follow up will be classified as censored cases at the latest date they will be confirmed to be progression free.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary endpoint of the study, progression free survival will be investigated after 8 completed I/T-courses (approx. 20 weeks). The patients are then followed in 3-monthly intervals until one year after medical treatment was finished. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): • Overall survival (OS) • Response to the investigational treatment after 4 and 8 courses of I/T and 1-year-follow-up in the RIST treatment arm • Duration until adequate response to this treatment regimen • Assessment of quality of life (Lansky and Karnofsky Scores) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: -after 4 completed I/T-courses (8 weeks), after 8 completed 8 I/T-courses (20 weeks) and in 3-monthly intervals until one year after medical treatment was finished. - quality of life will be investigated before start of treatment and then in 6-monthly intervals until one year after medical treatment was finished. | — |
