Intra-Arterial Chemotherapy for Newly Diagnosed, Residual, or Recurrent Atypical Choroid Plexus Papilloma and Choroid Plexus Carcinoma Prior to Second-Look Surgery

NCT04994977

Description:

This study will test the safety and efficacy of intra-arterial chemotherapy in subjects with newly diagnosed, residual, or recurrent atypical choroid plexus papilloma and choroid plexus carcinoma prior to a second surgery. It is believed that intra-arterial chemotherapy will be safe and feasible for this population and will result in decreased tumor size, which may further improve the goals of a second-look surgery.

Purpose

This study will test the safety and efficacy of intra-arterial chemotherapy in subjects with newly diagnosed, residual, or recurrent atypical choroid plexus papilloma and choroid plexus carcinoma prior to a second surgery. It is believed that intra-arterial chemotherapy will be safe and feasible for this population and will result in decreased tumor size, which may further improve the goals of a second-look surgery.

Detailed Description

      The intent of this study is to determine if intra-arterial chemotherapy is a safe and
      effective option for subjects with atypical choroid plexus papilloma and choroid plexus
      carcinoma prior to receiving second-look surgery. Angiography occurs when a catheter is
      inserted through the subjects vasculature to the major vessels that supply cerebral
      circulation. Subjects on this trial will undergo a a cerebral angiogram to determine the
      ideal arteries to use for drug infusion. Once identified, chemotherapy will be delivered
      through the catheter directly to the site of tumor.

NameTypeDescriptionInterventions
Intra-arterial ChemotherapyExperimentalSubjects are pre-treated with heparin, and then given single doses of Melphalan, Carboplatin, and Topotecan consecutively via intra-arterial infusion. Multiple arteries may be used, with the total dose of the drugs remaining the same.

               -  QTc interval ≤ 450 msecs

          -  Subjects greater than 3 years of age must have a blood pressure that is ≤ 95th
             percentile for age, height and gender at the time of enrollment.

          -  Subjects who are receiving dexamethasone must be on a stable or decreasing dose for at
             least 1 week prior to enrollment.

          -  Subjects with neurological deficits should have deficits that are stable for a minimum

                  irradiation)
