Details and patient eligibility

About

This is a study to determine the efficacy, safety and clinical benefit (how well the drugs works), of the pharmaceutical compositions in Nasal Spray NST-4G for the treatment of brain tumors( Recurrent Glioblastoma, Gliosarcoma,Anaplastic Gliomas, Previously Treated).

All drugs target the inhibition of the growth factors and neo-angiogenesis as one the main reasons for the growth of the tumor.

The purpose of the Nasal Spray NST-4G study is to determine the safety and tolerability in order to establish the best dose level to be used in future studies.

Full description

This is an open-label study, Phase 1 study evaluating the preliminary safety, efficacy, tolerability and clinical benefit of Nasal Spray NST-4G in patients with Recurrent Glioblastoma, Gliosarcoma,Anaplastic Gliomas.

Acceptable subjects included in the study will receive Nasal Spray NST-4G, administered twice daily for 7 weeks intranasally.

Every 8th day, a blood function (hematopoiesis) is examined . Patients may continue to receive subsequent nasal spray cycles if the subject is not intolerant of the test product, does not withdraw consent or the individual no longer receives clinical benefit (the factors taken for consideration will be the progression of the disease, expressed in increasing neuropathy, hemiparesis, pain intensification ,DLT events, Clinical signs of deteriorating quality of life (QOL).

The evaluation of the tumor size will be repeated using the MRI method with a contrast agent after each 7-week nasal spray cycle.

The use of nasal spray is a non-invasive method of treatment that does not require specialized conditions for therapy

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 80 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Has been treated previously with bevacizumab and (or) temozolomide.
2. Be willing and able to provide written informed consent/assent for the trial.
3. Be >/= 18 years of age on day of signing informed consent.
4. Have histologically confirmed World Health Organization Grade IV malignant glioma (glioblastoma or gliosarcoma). Participants will be eligible if the original histology was low-grade glioma and a subsequent histological diagnosis of glioblastoma or variants is made.
5. Patients must be at first or second relapse and clinically require reoperation for tumor progression within 4 to 6 weeks. Note: Relapse is defined as progression following initial therapy (i.e., radiation, chemotherapy, or radiation+ chemotherapy). If the participant had a surgical resection for relapsed disease and no antitumor therapy instituted for up to 12 weeks, this is considered one relapse. For participants who had prior therapy for a low grade glioma, the surgical diagnosis of a high grade glioma will be considered first relapse.
6. Have measurable disease consisting of a minimal volume of 1 cm3.
7. Have provided tissue from an archival tissue sample of a tumor lesion.
8. Have a performance status of >/= 60 on the KPS.
9. Stable dose of steroids for 5 days, no more than 2 mg dexamethasone (or equivalent) total per day
10. Demonstrate adequate organ function as defined in Table 1, all screening labs should be performed within 14 days prior to registration. 1) Hematological : Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >/=1,500 /mcL; Platelets >/=100,000 / mcL; Hemoglobin >/= 9 g/dL or >/= 5.6 mmol/L. 2) Renal: Serum creatinine </= 1.5 X upper limit of normal (ULN) OR Measured or calculated creatinine clearance (GFR can also be used in place of creatinine or CrCl) >/= 60 mL/min for subject with creatinine levels > 1.5 X institutional ULN.
11. Hepatic: Serum total bilirubin </= 1.5 X ULN OR Direct bilirubin </= ULN for subjects with total bilirubin levels > 1.5 ULN; AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) </= 2.5 X ULN, Coagulation: International Normalized Ratio (INR) or Prothrombin Time (PT) </= 1.5 X ULN unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or PTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants; Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) </= 1.5 X ULN unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or PTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants.
12. Female subject of childbearing potential should have a negative serum pregnancy test.
13. Female subjects of childbearing potential should be willing to use 2 methods of birth control or be surgically sterile, or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the study through 90 days after the last dose of study medication. Subjects of childbearing potential are those who have not been surgically sterilized or have not been free from menses for > 1 year.
14. Male subjects should agree to use an adequate method of contraception starting with the first dose of study therapy through 90 days after the last dose of study therapy.
