NCT01462695

Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well sunitinib malate works in treating younger patients with recurrent, refractory, or progressive malignant glioma or ependymoma. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Sustained Objective Response Rate

    Sustained objective response was defined as a PR (Partial Response: ≥ 50% decrease in the sum of the products of the 2 perpendicular diameters of all target lesions (up to 5), taking as reference the initial baseline measurements) or CR (Complete Response: disappearance of all target lesions) lasting at least 8 weeks.

    Up to 5 years

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (sunitinib)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive sunitinib malate orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 42 days for up to 18 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Eligibility Criteria

Age1 Year - 21 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients must be diagnosed with ependymoma or high-grade glioma (World Health Organization \[WHO\] grade III/IV):
  • Stratum A: recurrent/progressive/refractory malignant glioma (i.e., anaplastic astrocytoma, glioblastoma multiforme \[including giant cell and gliosarcoma types\], anaplastic oligodendroglioma, anaplastic oligoastrocytoma, or anaplastic ganglioglioma) within the brain with or without spinal cord disease
  • Stratum B: recurrent/progressive/refractory ependymoma (including ependymoma variants) within the brain with or without spinal cord disease
  • Patients with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma are not eligible
  • A histological diagnosis from either the initial presentation or at the time of recurrence is required
  • Patients must have radiographically documented measurable disease in the brain, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least 2 planes
  • To document the degree of residual tumor, the following must be obtained:
  • All patients must have a brain MRI with and without gadolinium and a spine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), if clinically indicated,with and without gadolinium, performed within 2 weeks prior to study enrollment
  • Patients with evidence of new central nervous system (CNS) hemorrhage of more than punctate size and/or more than 3 foci of punctate hemorrhage on baseline MRI obtained within 14 days prior to study enrollment are not eligible
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance score of 0, 1, or 2 (use Karnofsky for patients \> 16 years of age and Lansky for patients ≤ 16 years of age)
  • Neurological deficits in patients must have been relatively stable for a minimum of 1 week prior to study enrollment; patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score
  • Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,000/μL
  • Platelet count ≥ 75,000/μL (transfusion independent, defined as not receiving platelet transfusions within the 7-day period prior to enrollment)
  • Hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 g/dL (may receive red blood cell \[RBC\] transfusions)
  • Creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥ 70 mL/min OR serum creatinine based on age/gender as follows:
  • +58 more criteria
