Phase II Trial to Assess the Radiosensitizing Effect of ZARNESTRA in Patients With Glioblastoma Multiforme
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy by the determination of the Time To Progression (TTP) in patients with resectable GBM or non surgical GBM with a size less than 5 cm treated with the combination of ZARNESTRA plus Radiation therapy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Efficacy will be assessed by the determination of the Time To Progression (TTP) in patients with resectable GBM or non surgical GBM with a size less than 5 cm treated with the combination of ZARNESTRA plus Radiation therapy [time of study]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Objective response rate (RECIST and volumetric criteria) [time of study]
- Median survival, 6 month and 1 year survival rates [6 month and 1 year]
- Safety of combination therapy of ZARNESTRA and RT, based on laboratory and clinical parameters [time of study]
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria

-
Patients with uncontrolled seizures despite standard anticonvulsant therapy
-
Any prior systemic treatment (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy) for glioblastoma multiforme
-

Exceptions are: superficial basal cell carcinoma or non-metastatic squamous cell cancer of the skin, cervix cancer (cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia -CIN or FIGO stage 1) or prostate intra-epithelial neoplasia (PIN), biochemical relapse free for at least 3 years.
-
Any prior systemic chemotherapy in the past five years for any malignancy in the medical history
