NCT00516282 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 14

Last updated 2011-08-26

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide and VNP40101M, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Temozolomide may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of VNP40101M when given together with temozolomide and to see how well it works in treating patients with progressive or relapsed malignant glioma.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

CLORETAZINE

CLORETAZINE will be administered intravenously on day 7. The starting dose of CLORETAZINE will be 100 mg/m2 given within 3 hours after the last dose of Temodar on day 7. CLORETAZINE will be given as an IV infusion over 15-30 minutes via a freely flowing peripheral or central intravenous line. CLORETAZINE will be escalated by 50 mg/m2 for the second cohort then by 25 mg/m2 increments in the following cohorts of 3-6 patients using a standard phase I trial design until a MTD is determined. If dose level 2 has two DLTs then patients will be accrued to a new dose level of 125 mg/m2. Prior to receiving Cloretazine, blood will be drawn for gene methylation studies.

DRUG

temozolomide

Temozolomide will be given orally at a dose of 75mg/m2 daily on day 1 through 7. There will be no dose modification for this agent. Prior to receiving Temozolomide, blood will be drawn for gene methylation studies.
