High Grade Glioma
Conditions
Brief summary
This randomized, open-label, multicenter, 2-arm study will investigate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of bevacizumab when added to postoperative radiotherapy with concomitant and adjuvant TMZ as compared to postoperative radiotherapy with concomitant and adjuvant TMZ alone in paediatric participants with newly diagnosed histologically confirmed World Health Organization (WHO) Grade III or IV localized supratentorial or infratentorial cerebellar or peduncular high grade glioma (HGG). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment arms. Upon approval by the Health Authorities/Ethics Committees in the participating countries, an additional young participant cohort (YPC) (children \>/= 6 months and \< 3 years of age with progressive or relapsed metastatic or localized, supra- or infratentorial, non-brain stem WHO Grade III or IV HGG) was included in the study. Children in the YPC will receive bevacizumab and TMZ without radiation therapy. The anticipated time on study treatment is over 1 year.
Interventions
10 milligrams per kilogram every 2 weeks during the study for up to 12 cycles, each cycle length of 28 days
Total dose of 54 Grey (Gy) units delivered in 30 daily fractions of 1.8 Gy over 6 weeks during the chemoradiation phase.
75 milligrams per square meter (mg/m\^2) daily continuous starting concomitantly with the first radiation fraction and ending with the last radiation fraction for a maximum number of treatment days = 49 days. During the TMZ adjuvant treatment phase and for participants from YPC: TMZ (150 to 200 mg/m\^2/day) x 12 cycles, 1st cycle 150 mg/m\^2/days 1-5, escalated to 200 mg/m\^2 on Days 1-5 from Cycle 2 onwards depending on the tolerance during the 1st cycle. Cycle length = 28 days.

Percentage of Participants With EFS as Determined by the CRRC at 6 Months
EFS was defined as the time from randomisation to the earliest occurrence of any of the following: tumor progression, tumor recurrence, second primary non- HGG malignancy or death attributable to any cause. Tumor assessments were conducted using MRI and reviewed by the site-independent CRRC using RANO criteria. Tumor progression was defined as clear clinical progression or \>/= 25% increase in the sum of the products of perpendicular diameters of the contrast enhancing lesions compared with the smallest tumor measurement obtained either at baseline (if no decrease was observed) or best response and with the subject on stable or increasing doses of corticosteroids. Tumor recurrence was defined as recurrence after tumor was completely resected (no disease present at baseline). EFS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Time frame: 6 months
Population: Randomized participant population included all randomized participants regardless of whether they received study treatment.
