Safety & Radiation Distribution Study of Cotara® in Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Peregrine Pharmaceuticals, January 2009
Sponsored by: Peregrine Pharmaceuticals
Information provided by: Peregrine Pharmaceuticals
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00509301
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Cotara® is an experimental new treatment that links a radioactive isotope (iodine 131) to a targeted monoclonal antibody. This monoclonal antibody is designed to bind tumor cells and deliver radiation directly to the center of the tumor mass while minimizing effects on normal tissues. Cotara® thus literally destroys the tumor "from the inside out." This may be an effective treatment for glioblastoma multiforme, a malignant type of brain cancer.

PURPOSE: This trial is studying the safety and radiation distribution of Cotara® in patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.

Estimated Study Completion Date: June 2009
Estimated Primary Completion Date: June 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental
1.5 mCi/cc
Drug: 131-I-chTNT-1/B MAB
The study drug is given interstitially for approximately 25 hours at a dose of 1.5, 2.0, or 2.5 mCi/cc.
2: Experimental
2.0 mCi/cc
Drug: 131-I-chTNT-1/B MAB
The study drug is given interstitially for approximately 25 hours at a dose of 1.5, 2.0, or 2.5 mCi/cc.
3: Experimental
2.5 mCi/cc
Drug: 131-I-chTNT-1/B MAB
The study drug is given interstitially for approximately 25 hours at a dose of 1.5, 2.0, or 2.5 mCi/cc.

Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To confirm the dose limiting toxicities (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 131I-chTNT-1/B MAb (Cotara®) when given as a single 25 hour interstitial infusion in patients with recurrent GBM
  • To characterize the biodistribution and radiation dosimetry of Cotara®

OUTLINE:

This is an open-label, dose escalation study of Cotara®.

All patients will receive 3 mCi of Cotara® for biodistribution and radiation dosimetry purposes. In addition, patients will receive escalating therapeutic dose levels of Cotara® for confirmation of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for a minimum of 12 weeks and until disease progression.
