Summary

Primary objective:

* To evaluate activity of imatinib mesylate and hydroxyurea among patients with progressive/recurrent grade II low-grade glioma (LGG) as measured by 12-month progression free survival

Secondary objectives:

* To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival and objective response rate among patients with progressive/recurrent grade II LGG treated with imatinib mesylate plus hydroxyurea
* To assess safety and tolerability of imatinib mesylate + hydroxyurea in this population

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Imatinib Mesylate & Hydroxyurea

Imatinib administered orally on daily. Imatinib is local irritant \& must be taken in sitting position; mini of 2hrs should be allowed between last drug intake \& going to bed. Imatinib doses 400mg/600mg administered once daily, whereas daily doses of 800mg/\> administered as equally divided dose taken twice day. Dose for imatinib: Pts not receiving p450-inducing antiepileptic drugs: 400 mg/day. Pts receiving p450-inducing antiepileptic drugs: 500 mg twice day. It is recommended that pts take their prescribed imatinib mesylate at same time that they take their prescribed hydroxyurea, however, 30-60min interval between agents is acceptable if required for practical/other compliance issues. Hydroxyurea administered orally twice day. Dosing will begin on day 1 of cycle 1 \& continue daily. Drug is approximately 80 percent bioavailable. Dose will be 500mg twice day for all pts.
