Summary

CENTRIC is a Phase 3 clinical trial assessing efficacy and safety of the investigational integrin inhibitor, cilengitide, in combination with standard treatment versus standard treatment alone in newly diagnosed glioblastoma subjects with a methylated O6-methylguanine-deoxyribonucleic acid methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter in the tumor tissue.

The MGMT gene promoter is a section of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that acts as a controlling element in the expression of MGMT. Methylation of the MGMT gene promoter has been found to be a predictive marker for benefit from temozolomide (TMZ) treatment.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Cilengitide

Cilengitide 2000 milligram (mg) will be administered intravenously twice weekly over 1 hour infusion from Weeks -1 to 77 or until occurrence of progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal for any other reason. If considered beneficial in the opinion of the Investigator, continuation of cilengitide treatment will be optional in subjects without disease progression and after Week 77 since start of treatment.

DRUG

Temozolomide

Temozolomide (TMZ) 75 milligram per square meter \[mg/m\^2\] will be administered intravenously once daily from Weeks 1 to 6. From Week 11 onwards, TMZ will be given as maintenance treatment at a dose of 150-200 mg/m\^2 for consecutive 5 days every 4 weeks until Week 34 or until disease progression.

RADIATION

Radiotherapy

Radiotherapy (RTX) at a dose of 2 gray (Gy) per fraction will be given once daily, 5 days per week from Weeks 1 to 6, total dose 60 Gy.
