Summary

To determine the safety and efficacy of using the drug azeliragon combined with stereotactic radiosurgery. Specifically, to determine if this combination will lead to improved response in the brain (tumor shrinking in size) and overall tumor control (how long tumor remains controlled).

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Azeliragon

Dosing will begin on Day 0 with the loading dose and continue daily through Day 7. Starting on Day 8, dosing will resume with the continuous dose until disease progression or 8 weeks. If there is evidence of antitumor effect at 8 weeks, dosing may continue for up 2 two years. All doses are taken orally. There are three levels of dosing, including a starting dose and two lower levels of dosing. Participants will start with the starting dose, and in the event of the dose limiting toxicities, the dose will be reduced as described below. Starting Dose Level: 30 mg twice daily (Loading Dose) or 20 mg once daily (Continuous Dose) Dose Level -1: 15 mg twice daily (Loading Dose) or 10 mg once daily (Continuous Dose) Dose Level -2: 15 mg once daily (Loading Dose) or 5 mg once daily (Continuous Dose)

RADIATION

Stereotactic radiosurgery

Patients will undergo standard of care SRS as per the treating facility's policies.

DRUG

Corticosteroid

Two corticosteroid regimens are used depending on the study cohort. Cohorts 1 and 2 will receive the loading dose (LD). Only Cohort 1 will receive the corticosteroid taper (CT). LD: Oral (8 mg) or IV bolus dose (10 mg) of dexamethasone or 40 to 80 mg of methylprednisolone on the day of SRS CT: Oral 2-4 mg of dexamethasone twice daily for 5 days and then 2-4 mg daily for 5 days at the discretion of the treating physician (concurrent use of a proton pump inhibitor or H2 receptor antagonists are encouraged during the CT).
