Lutathera for the Treatment of Inoperable, Progressive Meningioma After External Beam Radiation Therapy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This phase II trial studies how well lutathera works in treating patients with meningioma that cannot be treated with surgery (inoperable) and is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive) after external beam radiation therapy. Lutathera is a radioactive drug administered in the vein that is designed to target and kill cancer cells. The goal of this study is to determine whether this drug is safe and effective in treating meningiomas that progress after radiation treatment.

Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
-
To estimate the efficacy of lutetium Lu 177 dotatate (LUTATHERA) treatment in patients with recurrent grade 1 meningioma as measured by 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate.
-
To estimate the efficacy of LUTATHERA treatment in patients with recurrent grade 2 or 3 meningioma as measured by 6-month PFS rate.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
-
To determine the overall survival (by grade cohort) of patients with recurrent meningioma during or after treatment of LUTATHERA.
-
To determine the progression-free survival (by grade cohort) of patients with recurrent meningioma during or after treatment of LUTATHERA.
-
To determine the toxicity of LUTATHERA treatment in patients with recurrent meningioma.
CORRELATIVE RESEARCH OBJECTIVES:
- To assess the impact of treatment on the patient's quality of life (QOL) using the Promise-10, Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI), European Quality of Life Five Dimension Five Level (EQ-5D-5L), and Mayo Patient Survey National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN)-Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT) Brain Symptom Index Questionnaire-24 (FBrSI-24) (version
- instruments.
-
To compare the response assessment between standard of care brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and gallium Ga 68-DOTATATE (68Ga-DOTATATE) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
-
To determine the best objective response (McDonald criteria) of patients with recurrent meningioma during or after treatment of LUTATHERA.
-
To determine the duration of local control with death as a competing risk (by grade cohort) of patients with recurrent meningioma during or after treatment of LUTATHERA.
V. To perform a quantitative dosimetric analysis of radiation dose delivered with lutathera:
Va. To determine intratherapeutic dosimetry for the target meningioma. Vb. To correlate treatment response of lutathera with target dose received. Vc. To determine intratherapeutic dosimetry for kidneys and other abdominal organs.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive gallium Ga 68-DOTATATE intravenously (IV) and undergo a PET/MRI before cycles 1 and 4. Patients then receive lutetium Lu 177 dotatate intravenously (IV) over 30-40 minutes. Treatment repeats every 8 weeks for up to 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months thereafter.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Progression-free survival [At 6 months after starting treatment]
Will be defined as the number of evaluable patients not having progressive disease or death within six months of the first day of treatment divided by the total number of evaluable patients. The proportion of successes in each cohort will be estimated by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. Confidence intervals for the true success proportion will be calculated according to the approach of Clopper-Pearson. There will be no formal comparison of rates among the two different grade cohorts of patients.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Overall survival [From the first day of treatment to death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years]
The distribution of survival time for both cohorts will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. No formal comparison will be made among the cohorts.
- Progression free survival [From the first day of treatment to the earliest date documentation of disease progression, assessed up to 5 years]
The distribution of time to progression will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier (Kaplan et. al 1958). No formal comparison will be made among the cohorts.
- Incidence of adverse events [Up to 24 months]
Will be assessed according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.03. The maximum grade for each type of adverse event will be recorded for each patient, and frequency tables will be reviewed to determine patterns. Additionally, the relationship of the adverse event(s) to the study treatment will be taken into consideration.
Other Outcome Measures
- Change in quality of life (QOL) [Baseline up to 5 years]
QOL will be measured using the standard survey series for this population of patients, and QOL trajectory over time will be examined. The survey series includes Promise-10, Brief Fatigue Inventory, European Quality of Life Five Dimension Five Level, and Mayo Patient Survey National Comprehensive Cancer Network-Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Brain Symptom Index Questionnaire-24 (version 2). The main QOL impact will be measured with differences from baseline to 6, 12 and 24 months in patient reported outcomes via the symptom scales from the above surveys. All other QOL analyses will be exploratory and may include change from baseline to all time points using t-test and generalized linear models to test for changes at each time point and non-zero slopes, respectfully. No formal comparisons will be made among the cohorts.
- Local control [Up to 5 years]
Will be defined as a best objective response of stable disease, partial or complete response to treatment as determined by Macdonald Criteria. The proportion of patients who have achieved local control will be summarized by cohort and 95% confidence intervals calculated according to the methods described in Clopper-Pearson. No formal comparison will be made among the cohorts.
- Duration of local control [From start of therapy until date of first progression, assessed up to 5 years]
The distribution of local control and survival without progression as a competing risk model will be constructed using Kaplan-Meier estimates. No formal comparisons will be made amongst the cohorts.
- Objective response to treatment [Up to 5 years]
Will be determined by Macdonald Criteria. The proportion of patients in each response category will be summarized by cohort and 95% confidence intervals calculated according to the methods described in Clopper-Pearson. No formal comparison will be made among the cohorts.
- Response rate by volumetric analysis [Up to 5 years]
The response rate determined by volumetric analysis will be estimated for each cohort with proportion of patients who achieve complete response/partial response deemed by volumetric analysis. The 90% two-sided confidence intervals will be calculated according to approach of Clopper-Pearson. No formal comparison will be made among the cohorts.
