Summary

Part 1 is an open-label, single-arm, dose escalation study of MN-166 (ibudilast) and temozolomide (TMZ) combination treatment. Evaluate safety and tolerability of ibudilast (MN-166) and TMZ combination treatment for 1 cycle (28 days); determine dosage in dose-finding study. Part 2 will evaluate efficacy of fixed-dose MN-166 (ibudilast) and TMZ combination treatment for 6 cycles (\~6 months) until disease progression, unacceptable tolerability and/or toxicity or loss of life.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

MN-166

MN-166 is an anti-inflammatory/neuroprotective agent. MN-166 distributes well to the CNS (Sanftner et al. 2009) and it is a selective inhibitor of certain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDE) and the pro-inflammatory cytokine, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). At clinically-relevant plasma or CNS concentrations, MN-166 selectively inhibits macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) (Cho et al 2010) and, secondarily, PDE3, 4 and 10 (Gibson et al 2006).

DRUG

Temozolomide

Temozolomide is an oral chemotherapy drug. It is an alkylating agent used as a treatment of some brain cancers; and a first-line treatment for glioblastoma multiforme.
