Study to Demonstrate the Safety of WBR Administered at the Same Time as Intrathecal Liposomal Cytarabine (DepoCyte®) Versus Intrathecal Liposomal Cytarabine (DepoCyte®) Administered After WBR for the Treatment of Solid Tumour Neoplastic Meningitis in Patients With or Without Brain Metastasis.
Basic Trial Information
Summary The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety of giving Whole Brain Radiotherapy (WBRT) together with intrathecal liposomal cytarabine (DepoCyte®) for patients with leptomeningeal metastases. The study will compare the safety of giving DepoCyte at the same time as WBRT with giving the drug after WBRT is complete. Eligibility Criteria Indication and Criteria for Inclusion/Exclusion: Subjects who are to be included in the study have to meet all of the following criteria:
OR Characteristic signs and symptoms of neoplastic meningitis PLUS an MRI indicating the presence of meningeal tumour (diagnosis to be made by neuro-oncologist and confirmed / signed within the CRF). All MRIs will be forwarded for central review and confirmation of diagnosis. In case of discrepancy the central review overrides the assessment of the investigator.
(If a flow abnormality is initially demonstrated but the flow block is subsequently documented by another flow study or MRI scan to be relieved following limited field radiation therapy, the subject may then be eligible)
Laboratory values as follows:
implants, combined oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices (IUDs), sexual abstinence or vasectomy). Exclusion Criteria:
Trial Lead Organizations/Sponsors Mundipharma International Limited
