Clinical Trial: NCT02343549 - My Cancer Genome

NCT02343549

Description:

All patients will complete best standard of care radiation, temozolomide and bevacizumab (6 weeks). Within two weeks of completion of this initial treatment period, study patients will be fitted with the NovoTTF-100A System and treated continuously. They will be treated with TTFields for 12 months for an average of 18 hours per day. The patient may elect to take a treatment break for a total of 3 days per month, for each month and still be in compliance. This will consist of wearing four electrically insulated electrode arrays on the head. The patients will also continue with maintenance temozolomide/ bevacizumab.

Purpose

Detailed Description

      This study will be carried out in two stages. The first stage will enroll a cohort of 22
      patients. The FDA will review safety data of the first 15 patients during enrollment of the
      first cohort. Enrollment and interim analysis of the first cohort of patients will be
      completed within 15 months of study commencement. Upon FDA approval and favorable interim
      analysis followed by subsequent protocol/consent amendment (as applicable), the second stage
      will enroll a cohort of 24 patients and will be completed within 15 months of stage 2
      commencement. The overall duration of the study is expected to be no longer than 30 months.

Maximum Eligible Age:	N/A
Minimum Eligible Age:	22 Years
Eligible Gender:	All
Healthy Volunteers:	No

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:	12-Month Survival
Time Frame:	Evaluated over 12 months
Safety Issue:
Description:	Twelve-month survival was determined for each subject as a binary variable indicating whether or not the subject was alive at 12 months from initiation of chemoradiation. Determination of this endpoint occurs after the subject has at least 12 months of follow-up, unless they have died sooner.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:	Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame:	From date of treatment start to date of death, or censored as described above; assessed for approximately 5 years
Safety Issue:
Description:	Overall survival was defined as the duration from the initiation of chemoradiation therapy to the date of death from any cause. Subjects who were alive or lost to follow-up at the time of the analysis were be censored at the last known date they were alive.

Measure:	Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame:	From date of treatment start to date of progression/death, or censored as described above; assessed for approximately 2 years.
Safety Issue:
Description:	Progression-Free Survival (PFS) is defined as duration of time from initiation of chemoradiation therapy to first occurrence of either progressive disease (PD) or death. PD must be objectively determined as per RANO criteria (Updated Response Assessment Criteria for High Grade Gliomas, where PD is defined as a 25% increase in sum of products of diameters from nadir), where date of PD is date of assessment that identified PD. If subject died without documented PD, date of progression will be date of death. For surviving subjects who do not have documented PD, PFS will be censored at date of last radiologic assessment. For subjects who receive subsequent anti-cancer therapy prior to documented PD, PFS will be censored at the date of last radiologic assessment prior to the commencement of subsequent therapy. Subjects who have an initial PFS event immediately following 2 or more consecutive missed assessments will be censored at date of last assessment prior to missed assessments.

Measure:	Objective Response
Time Frame:	From enrollment to best response while on study treatment; subjects remained on treatment until disease progression or death or unacceptable toxicity (subjects were on treatment for an average of 7 months)
Safety Issue:
Description:	Objective response was determined for each subject as a binary variable indicating whether or not the subject achieved a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as determined by the Updated Response Assessment Criteria for High Grade Gliomas (RANO; where CR is indicated by disappearance of all target lesions and PR is indicated by >=50% decrease in the sum of products of diameters of target lesions with baseline as reference). Best responses of CR or PR must be confirmed by a subsequent radiologic assessment.

Measure:	Disease Control
Time Frame:	From enrollment to best response while on study treatment; subjects remained on treatment until disease progression or death or unacceptable toxicity (subjects were on treatment for an average of 7 months).
Safety Issue:
Description:	Disease control was determined for each subject indicating whether or not they achieved an overall response of stable disease (SD) or better by RANO criteria (where a CR is indicated by disappearance of all target and non target lesions, a PR is indicated by >= 50% decrease in sum of products of diameters of target lesions with baseline as reference, and SD is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient growth, >=25%, to indicate progression).

Measure:	Duration of Response
Time Frame:	From date of first response to date of progression/death, or censored as described above; assessed for approximately 2 years.
Safety Issue:
Description:	The duration of response was measured from the time RANO criteria are met for CR or PR (whichever is first recorded) until the first occurrence of either progressive disease or death. The date of progression event and the censoring mechanism for duration of response were the same as those described for PFS. Duration of response was only calculated only for those subjects with a best overall response of PR or CR.

Measure:	Duration of Disease Control
Time Frame:	From date of treatment start to date of progression/death, or censored as described above; assessed for approximately 2 years.
Safety Issue:
Description:	Duration of disease control was measured from the time of initiation of chemoradiation therapy until the first occurrence of either progressive disease or death. The date of progression events and the censoring mechanism for duration of disease control were the same as those described for PFS. Duration of disease control was calculated only for those subjects with a best overall response of SD or better.
