Glioblastoma, Gliosarcoma, Anaplastic Astrocytoma
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Glioblastoma focused on measuring Glioblastoma, Gliosarcoma, Anaplastic Astrocytoma, Anaplastic Oligodendroglioma, Anaplastic Mixed Oligoastrocytoma, Malignant Astrocytoma NOS, Nanoliposomal CPT-11, liposomal irinotecan
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
Patients with histologically proven intracranial malignant glioma are eligible . -All patients must sign an informed consent
- Patients must be > 18 years old, and with a life expectancy > 8 weeks.
- Patients must have a Karnofsky performance status of > 60.
- Patients must have recovered from the toxic effects of prior therapy
Patients must have adequate bone marrow function (WBC > 3,000/µl, ANC > 1,500/mm3, platelet count of > 100,000/mm3, and hemoglobin > 10 gm/dl), adequate liver function (SGOT and bilirubin < 2 times ULN), and adequate renal function (creatinine < 1.5 mg/dL and/or creatinine clearance > 60 cc/min) Patients must have shown radiographic evidence for tumor progression by MRI or CT scan. A scan should be performed within 14 days prior to registration and on a steroid dose that has been stable for at least 5 days. -Patients having undergone recent resection of recurrent or progressive tumor will be eligible as long as all of the following conditions apply:
- They have recovered from the effects of surgery.
- Residual disease following resection of recurrent malignant glioma is not mandated for eligibility into the study.
- Patients must have failed prior radiation therapy
- Patients with prior therapy that included interstitial brachytherapy or stereotactic radiosurgery must have confirmation of true progressive disease
- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative ß-HCG pregnancy test documented within 14 days prior to registration.
- Patients may have had treatment for any number of prior relapses.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients must not have any significant medical illnesses that in the investigator opinion cannot be adequately controlled
- Patients with a history of any other cancer (except non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in-situ of the cervix), unless in complete remission and off of all therapy for that disease for a minimum of 3 years are ineligible.
- Patients must not have active infection or serious intercurrent medical illness.
- Patients must not be pregnant/breast feeding and must agree to practice adequate contraception.
- Patients must not have any disease that will obscure toxicity or dangerously alter drug metabolism.
- Patients must not have received prior therapy with irinotecan.
- Patients with 7/7 (homozygous) UGT1A1*28 genotyping will be excluded from the study.
- Patients receiving enzyme-inducing anticonvulsants or other enzyme inducing drugs are excluded.
