Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

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)

EXPERIMENTAL

Study 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.

Radiation: 4-L-[131I]iodo-phenylalanine (131I-IPA)

Three administrations of 131I-IPA (3f-parallel group)

EXPERIMENTAL

Study 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.

Radiation: 4-L-[131I]iodo-phenylalanine (131I-IPA)

Three administrations of 131I-IPA (3f-sequential group)

EXPERIMENTAL

Study 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.

Radiation: 4-L-[131I]iodo-phenylalanine (131I-IPA)

Dose escalation of fractionated dosing

EXPERIMENTAL

Dose 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.

Radiation: 4-L-[131I]iodo-phenylalanine (131I-IPA)

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
