NCT00219297

Brief Summary

The study objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of patupilone with respect to early progression and response of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) metastatic to the brain, who have progressed after chemotherapy, surgery and/or radiation.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • World Health Organization (WHO) performance status of 0, 1 or 2 (corresponding to Karnofsky performance status of 50 or better)
  • Patients with radiologically proven (by gadolinium-enhanced \[Gd-\] magnetic resonance imaging \[MRI\]) parenchymal brain metastases from histologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer (the primary disease may be quiescent). Gd-MRI must be performed within 2 weeks of study entry.
  • Patients should have at least one bidimensionally measurable intracranial lesion of a minimum of 2 cm as defined by Gd-MRI. If the patient has had previous radiation to the marker lesion(s), there must be evidence of residual disease \> 2 cm or the lesion must have demonstrated progression since the radiation.
  • Those patients progressing on radiotherapy must have a 25% increase in the size of the previously radiated intracranial lesion based on the Neuro-Oncology Criteria of Tumor Response for Central Nervous System (CNS) Tumors or appearance of new lesions.
  • Patients must be controlled on medication and neurologically stable: stable on steroids and anticonvulsants for at least 2 weeks prior to obtaining the baseline Gd-MRI of the brain, and/or at least 2 weeks prior to beginning study treatment.
  • Female patients must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening. (Not applicable to patients with bilateral oophorectomy and/or hysterectomy or to those patients who are postmenopausal.)
  • All patients of reproductive potential must agree to use an effective method of contraception during the study and for three months following termination of treatment.
  • Written informed consent must be obtained.

You may not qualify if:

  • Clinical evidence of leptomeningeal disease
  • Patients with extracranial disease in more than 3 organ sites including the primary tumor.
  • Patients who have received any investigational compound within the past 28 days or who are planning to receive other investigational drugs while participating in the study
  • Prior administration of epothilone(s)
  • Patients with peripheral neuropathy \> grade 1
  • Patients with unresolved diarrhea within the last 7 days before treatment.
  • Patients receiving known diarrheogenic agents must stop treatment with these agents prior to enrollment in the study.
  • Radiotherapy \< 3 weeks prior to study entry
  • Prior intracranial surgery \< 3 weeks prior to study entry; patient must have recovered from surgery prior to study entry.
  • Chemotherapy \< 3 weeks prior to study entry; \< 6 weeks from prior nitrosoureas.
  • Severe cardiac insufficiency (New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] III or IV), with uncontrolled and/or unstable cardiac or coronary artery disease
  • Radiotherapy not permitted while on study. Exception: palliative radiotherapy of metastasis in extremities is allowed, but such lesions cannot be used as target or non-target lesions.
  • Patients receiving hematopoietic growth factors except for erythropoietin
  • Patients taking Coumadin® or other agents containing warfarin, with the exception of low dose Coumadin® (1 mg or less daily) administered prophylactically for maintenance of in-dwelling lines or ports
