Study Description

Brief Summary

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest primary malignant neoplasm of the central nervous system in adults. Despite an aggressive multimodality treatment approach including surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, overall survival remains poor. Novocure has shown that when properly tuned, very low intensity, intermediate frequency electric fields (TTFields) stunt the growth of tumor cells. The Optune system (NovoTTFTM Therapy) is a portable battery operated device, which produces TTFields within the human body by means of surface transducer arrays. The TTFields are applied to the patient by means of surface transducer arrays that are electrically insulated, so that resistively coupled electric currents are not delivered to the patient. Optune is currently FDA-approved as a single modality treatment for recurrent GBM when both surgical and radiotherapy options have been exhausted as well as combination with adjuvant temozolomide for newly diagnosed GBM.

This research study is being performed to determine whether or not TTFields combined with pulsed bevacizumab treatment increases overall survival in patients with bevacizumab-refractory GBM compared to historical controls treated with continuous bevacizumab alone or in combination with other chemotherapy.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Bevacizumab
  • Device: Optune
  • Other: Brain MRI
  • Other: Quality of Life Questionnaires
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Subjects who have evidence of bevacizumab-refractory GBM will be eligible to participate in this research study. Subjects will undergo 12 months of planned continuous treatment with TTFields followed by pulsed bevacizumab treatment when there is evidence of further progression per RANO, with the option of extending treatment up to a total of 24 months in patients who have not progressed and/or have adequate performance status at the 12 month mark. Pulsed bevacizumab dosing is defined by at least one cycle on and at least one cycle off. A cycle is defined as 8 weeks in length. If after one cycle on, there is no evidence of a repeat response; bevacizumab will be continued for one more cycle. If after two cycles on, there is no repeat response; bevacizumab will be continued with or without other standard chemotherapy until death. If after at least one cycle on, there is evidence of repeat response, bevacizumab will be discontinued for at least one cycle or until progression is noted again per RANO, whichever is later, at which time pulsed bevacizumab will be restarted as outlined above. The investigators believe that this approach will produce peaks and troughs in mitotic activities of glioma cells that render glioma cells more sensitive to the antimitotic activity of Optune during peak growth rates, thus lowering disease burden and increasing survival. In addition, the following will be performed: Bevacizumab will be given at 10mg/kg IV every 2 weeks. Physical examination and quality of life (QoL) assessments will be performed bi-monthly. Brain MRI will be performed every 2 months.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Optune+Pulsed Bevacizumab

The subjects will undergo 12 months of planned continuous treatment with Optune. The treatment will begin at week 0 and will be continuous throughout the study. Pulsed bevacizumab dosing is defined by at least one cycle on and at least one cycle off. A cycle is defined as 8 weeks in length. If after one cycle on, there is no evidence of a repeat response; bevacizumab will be continued for one more cycle. If after two cycles on, there is no repeat response; bevacizumab will be continued with or without other standard chemotherapy until death. If after at least one cycle on, there is evidence of repeat response, bevacizumab will be discontinued for at least one cycle. In addition, the following will be performed: Bevacizumab will be given, physical examination and quality of life questionnaires will be performed and brain MRI.

Drug: Bevacizumab
Bevacizumab will be given at 10mg/kg IV every 2 weeks.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Overall Survival [from date of starting Optune to date of death or censoring, whichever comes first, assessed up to 24 months]

      Overall survival is defined as time interval from date of starting Optune to date of death or censoring whichever happens first.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Karnofsky Performance Scale [Assessed up to 24 months]

      The Karnofsky Performance Scale is rated from 0 - 100 with 0 = death and 100 = normal without complaints or evidence of disease. A higher score means the patient is better able to carry out daily activities. Patients are evaluable for assessment of QoL after completing at least 8 weeks of treatment with the Optune device with compliance rate > 60% in at least one 4-week period.

    2. Mini-Mental Status Exam [Assessed up to 24 months]

      The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) it is an 11-question measure that tests five areas of cognitive function: orientation, registration, attention and calculation, recall, and language. The maximum score is 30. The higher the score suggests less cognitive impairment. A score of 24-30 suggests no cognitive impairment. A score of 18-23 suggests mild cognitive impairment. A score of 0-17 suggests severe cognitive impairment. Patients are evaluable for assessment of QoL after completing at least 8 weeks of treatment with the Optune device with compliance rate > 60% in at least one 4-week period.

    3. Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) Measurement Form [Assessed up to 24 months]

      The Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology criteria were developed as an objective tool for radiologic assessment of treatment response in high-grade gliomas. Disease progression is defined as ≥ 25% increase in sum of the products of perpendicular diameters of enhancing lesions (with the absolute increase of at least 1 dimension of at least 5 mm) compared with the smallest tumor measurement obtained either at baseline. Response assessment will be performed for patients completing at least 8 weeks of treatment with the Optune device with compliance rate > 60% in at least one 4-week period.
