S9624 Ifosfamide in Treating Patients With Meningeal Tumors
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ifosfamide in treating patients with meningeal tumors that have recurred or that cannot be removed surgically.

Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
-
Estimate failure free survival, overall survival, and response in patients with residual or recurrent/progressive aggressive meningeal tumors (malignant meningioma, hemangiopericytoma, and primary nervous system sarcoma) treated with ifosfamide.
-
Evaluate toxicities of ifosfamide in this patient population.
OUTLINE: All patients receive ifosfamide IV continuously over 72 hours on days 1-3 of each 21 day treatment course. Patients are evaluated for response/progression after every 2 courses. Patients with stable disease receive up to 8 courses of therapy. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year, then every 6 months thereafter.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 35 patients will be accrued for this study.
