Concurrent Azeliragon With Craniospinal Irradiation

Study Purpose

Single institution study to assess the safety of concurrent Azeliragon with craniospinal irradiation (CSI) in patients with leptomeningeal metastasis from solid tumor malignancies and high-grade gliomas.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Patient with solid tumor malignancy or high grade glioma with leptomeningeal metastasis established radiographically and/or through cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology.
  • - Patients who are candidates for radiation therapy for the treatment of leptomeningeal metastasis.
  • - Patients with Karnofsky Performance Status of 60 or greater.
  • - Male or non-pregnant and non-lactating female and ≥ 18 years of age.
  • - Patients with absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.0 × 109/L, platelet count ≥ 75,000/mm3 (75 × 109/L), and hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 8 g/dL.
Transfusion or growth factor support is allowed.
  • - Patients with aspartate aminotransferase (AST) [serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase(SGOT)], alanine aminotransferase (ALT) [serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT)] ≤ 2.5 × upper limit of normal range (ULN), unless liver metastases are present, then ≤ 5 x ULN is acceptable, total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN, and estimated creatinine clearance of > 30 mL/min (per Cockroft-Gault formula).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - Patient has a life expectancy, per investigator assessment, of less than 2 months.
  • - Patients unable to complete the English quality of life questionnaires.
  • - Patient with extensive systemic disease and who declined standard systemic treatment options.
  • - Patient who is unable to undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain and spine with gadolinium contrast.
  • - Previous radiotherapy to the intended treatment site that precludes developing a treatment plan that respects normal tissue tolerance.
  • - Active, uncontrolled bacterial, or fungal infection(s) requiring systemic therapy.
  • - Patient has a concomitant serious medical or psychiatric illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, could compromise the patient's safety or the study data integrity.
  • - Patient is unwilling or unable to comply with study procedures, including, but not limited to self-administration of oral medication.
  • - Patients with a gastrointestinal condition that could interfere with swallowing or absorption.
  • - Females of childbearing potential who are sexually active or males with female partners of childbearing potential, where either the female or the male is unwilling to use a highly effective method of contraception during the trial and for 6 months after the last administration of study drug.
- Pregnant or lactating women

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT06724926
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Dose Determination followed by Dose Expansion

Patients with leptomeningeal metastasis from a solid tumor or primary CNS high-grade glioma will be enrolled and start Azeliragon 7 days prior to CSI, during CSI, and for 7 days days after completion of CSI (Dose Determination). Patients will be monitored for dose limiting toxicities during protocol therapy. Once the recommended dose is identified, additional patients will be treated with Azeliragon at recommended dose in combination with craniospinal irradiation (Dose Expansion).

Interventions

Drug: - Azeliragon

Azeliragon is orally administered. Patients start Azeliragon 7 days before CSI and take their last dose 7 days post-CSI. The first 6 patients will start at Dose Level 1 [DL1] (Loading dose for 7 days: 30 mg twice daily; Concurrent/adjuvant dose: 20 mg once daily). If 1 or fewer of 6 patients develop dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) then the recommended dose will be DL1. If at least 2 of 6 develops a DLT, then an additional 6 patients will be enrolled at Dose Level -1 [DL-1] (Loading dose for 7 days: 15mg twice daily; Concurrent/adjuvant dose: 10mg once daily). If 1 or fewer out of 6 patients at DL-1 develop DLT, then the recommended dose will be DL-1. If at least 2 of 6 at DL-1 develops a DLT, then an additional 6 patients will be enrolled at Dose Level -2 [DL-2] (Loading dose for 7 days: 15mg twice daily; Concurrent/adjuvant dose: 5mg once daily). At the recommended dose, an additional 14 patients will be enrolled for the Dose Expansion portion.

Procedure: - CSI

Patients will receive CSI.
