Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Indication: Subjects with glioblastoma at first relapse after surgery, radiotherapy and first-line temozolomide (TMZ). Objectives: 1. Phase I endpoint: \- To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CPT-11 administered on days 8 and 22 in combination with a fixed, continuous, and metronomic regimen of TMZ, given in 28-day cycles. 2. Phase II endpoints: Primary endpoint: Progression-free survival at 6 months. Secondary endpoints: Response rate, toxicity profile, overall survival. Complementary studies: To assess the effect of treatment on plasma concentration of thrombospondin-1 (TSP1), soluble VEGF receptor 1 (sVEGF-1) and VEGF-A, and their correlation with clinical outcome. * To assess the correlation between immunohistochemical expression of PTEN and MGMT proteins, and clinical outcomes.

- Phase I trial: TMZ will be administered in a fixed schedule as follows: TMZ 50 mg/m2/day divided in three daily doses (approx. 17 mg/m2/8 hours) on days 1-7, 9-21, and 23-28. 100 mg/m2 in a morning single dose on days 8 and 22 CPT-11 starting dose: 100 mg/m2 on days 8 and 22, administered 3 to 6 hours after TMZ. (Level 1) One cycle = 28 days CPT-11 will be escalated in successive cohorts of 3 patients as follows: 115, 130, 145, 160 mg/m2 .
