Brief summary

This is an open-label, single-arm, phase I/II trial of immune checkpoint inhibitor combined with pemetrexed intrathecal injection for leptomeningeal metastasis from solid tumors.

Detailed description

This is an open-label, single-arm, phase I/II trial of immune checkpoint inhibitor combined with pemetrexed intrathecal injection for leptomeningeal metastasis from solid tumors. The primary objective was to assess recommended dose and safety based on adverse events (AEs). All participants were observed to evaluate the clinical response rate (CRR), disease control rate (DCR) and overall survival (OS). Patients underwent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood specimen collection to evaluate potential clinical, molecular, and/or immune predictors of treatment efficacy and safety.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Recommended doseFrom date of treatment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 6 months.]The recommended dose of intrathecal PD-1 inhibitor. The dose limiting toxicity was defined as ≥ grade 3 neurological toxicities (e.g., chemical meningitis) or other grade 4 toxicity.
Incidence of treatment-related adverse eventsFrom date of treatment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 6 months.The incidence of treatment-related adverse events were measured for determining tolerability and safety. Adverse events (AEs) are evaluated according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Events of grade 3-5 are defined as moderate and severe adverse events.
