NCT02500459

Brief Summary

Topotecan is an FDA-approved drug when given by intravenous infection. The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with topotecan by an alternative method, direct delivery into the part of the brain where the tumor has spread, is safe and well tolerated. The Cleveland Multiport Catheter is a new, investigational device that will be used to deliver topotecan into tumor-infiltrated brain. A second purpose of this study is to determine whether the Cleveland Multiport Catheter can be used effectively and safely to deliver topotecan into tumor-infiltrated brain. This study will also examine how tumors responds to treatment with topotecan. This study will also look at the way topotecan is injected into tumors-infiltrated brain. A small amount of contrast dye (called gadolinium DTPA) will be added to topotecan before it is injected. Pictures will be taken of the brain with an MRI machine. This will allow the investigators to see where in the tumor-infiltrated brain the topotecan has been injected. This study will collect medical information before, during, and after treatment in order to better understand hot to make this type of procedure accessible to patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Summary of number of adverse events by grade - A measure of treatment safety

    up to 1 year after start of treatment

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • The number of patients with abnormal hematology lab reports

    up to 1 year after start of treatment

  • The number of patients with abnormal clinical chemistry lab reports

    up to 1 year after start of treatment

  • The number of patients with abnormal coagulation lab reports

Study Arms (1)

intraparenchymally-administered topotecan

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will have topotecan administered directly into the tumor bed using convection-enhanced delivery (CED)

Drug: topotecanDevice: Cleveland Multiport Catheter

Interventions

intraparenchymally-administered topotecan will use the Cleveland Multiport Catheter to directly infuse topotecan into the tumor site of patients with suspected recurrent/progressive high grade glioma (HGG). This drug is already FDA approved to be administered intravenously.

intraparenchymally-administered topotecan

The Cleveland Multiport Catheter will directly infuse topotecan into the tumor site of patients with suspected recurrent/progressive high grade glioma (HGG). Standard treatment is to adminsiter the drug intravenously.

  • MRI demonstration of an enhancing mass of more than 1 cm\^3 and less than 100 cm\^3;
  • Patient understands the procedures and agrees to comply with the study requirements by providing written informed consent; and
  • Laboratory values within the following ranges:
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500 / μL;
  • Platelet count ≥ 100,000 / μL;

  • Active infection requiring treatment;
  • Unexplained febrile illness;
  • Radiation or chemotherapy within 4 weeks of enrollment
  • Systemic diseases associated with unacceptable anesthesia or operative risk;
  • Personal or family history of bleeding diathesis and a coagulation profile that would preclude patient from undergoing a neurosurgical procedure
  • Subject must take anticoagulants, or antiplatelet agents, including NSAIDs that cannot be stopped for surgery
  • Inability to undergo magnetic resonance imaging.
