Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (6)

Treatment-related adverse events according to NCI-CTCAE v 4.03 criteria will be captured and evaluated for each patient
From first administration of 131I-IPA until 12 months after first administration
Safety parameter heart rate
Frequency of occurrence and severity of abnormal findings as measured by beats per minute
From first administration of 131I-IPA until 12 months after first administration
Safety parameter blood pressure

From first administration of 131I-IPA until 12 months after first administration
Safety parameter Liver function test
This outcome will be measured on all patients with treatment-related adverse events based on criteria as determined by the NCI CTCAE v 5.0 criteria. Results will be assessed by number of participants with abnormal laboratory values.
From first administration of 131I-IPA until 12 months after first administration
Safety parameter Renal function test
This outcome will be measured on all patients with treatment-related adverse events based on criteria as determined by the NCI CTCAE v 5.0 criteria. Results will be assessed by number of participants with abnormal laboratory values.
From first administration of 131I-IPA until 12 months after first administration
Safety parameter Full Blood Count
This outcome will be measured on all patients with treatment-related adverse events based on criteria as determined by the NCI CTCAE v 5.0 criteria. Results will be assessed by number of participants with abnormal laboratory values.
From first administration of 131I-IPA until 12 months after first administration
Secondary Outcomes (9)
To evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 131I -IPA administered concomitantly to 2nd line XRT in recurrent GBM 2
Evaluation of patient up to 30 days after completion of study therapy
To evaluate the efficacy of a fractionated administration of 131I-IPA
Up to 6 months after completion of study therapy
Dosimetry
From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months
Dosimetry
Up to 30 days after completion of study therapy
To explore the antineoplastic effect of 131I-IPA + XRT combination therapy
Commencing just prior to first administration of 131I-IPA until 12 months from time of first therapeutic administration
- +4 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (4)
Single administration of 131I-IPA (1f group)
EXPERIMENTALStudy participants with GBM receive a single administration of 4-L-\[131I\]iodo-phenylalanine (131I-IPA), followed by 18 cycles of external radiotherapy, each cycle being of 2 Gy.
Three administrations of 131I-IPA (3f-parallel group)
EXPERIMENTALStudy participants will be administered in 2GBq in 3 fractions corresponding to ⅓ full dose activity (0.67 GBq for the 2.0 GBq dose level). The 1st fraction of 131I-IPA will be administered as above, 1- 3 days prior to 1st XRT. The 2nd and 3rd 131I-IPA fractions will be administered after 5-9 XRT fractions (subject to investigator's discretion and day of IMP administration) following the previous 131I-IPA fraction. The remainder of XRT fractions will be given following the 3rd 131I-IPA fraction.
Three administrations of 131I-IPA (3f-sequential group)
EXPERIMENTALStudy participants will be administered in 2GBq in 3 fractions corresponding to ⅓ full dose activity (0.67 GBq for the 2.0 GBq dose level). The 1st fraction of 131I-IPA will be administered as above 1- 3 days prior to 1st XRT. The 2nd 131I-IPA fraction will be administered after all 18 XRT fractions have been completed, and the 3rd 131I-IPA fraction will be administered 1 week after the 2nd 131I-IPA fraction.
Dose escalation of fractionated dosing
EXPERIMENTALDose escalation will be made in steps of 2.0 GBq, i.e. 4.0 (3\*1.33 GBq), 6.0 GBq (3\*2.0 GBq), up to 8.0 GBq (3\*2.67 GBq) until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached, using cohorts of N=3 patients.
Interventions
Study participants will receive by intravenous infusion an escalating activity of 4-L-\[131I\]iodo-phenylalanine (131I-IPA). Additional therapy is received in the form of externally administered radiotherapy

- Interval since end of 1st line XRT ≥6 months
- Amino acid-based molecular imaging (preferably 18F-FET-PETor 11C-methionine, as institutionally established) indicating pathologically increased amino acid uptake inside or in the vicinity of the tumour, clearly discernible from background activity.

- WBC: \>3\*109/L
- Haemoglobin \>80 g/L
- PLT \>100\*109/L
- ALT, ALP, AST: ≤5 times upper international limit of normal (UILN)

- Haemostaseologic conditions, precluding catheterisation or invasive procedures
- Clinically significant illness or clinically relevant trauma within 2 weeks before the administration of the investigational product
- Known impairment of liver or kidney function or known liver or kidney disease, such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, renal failure
