New pill shows promise for teens with rare brain cancer

NCT ID NCT07286292

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a daily pill called vorasidenib in 10 teenagers (ages 12 to 17) with a slow-growing brain tumor (grade 2 glioma) that has a specific genetic mutation (IDH1 or IDH2). The goal is to see if the drug is safe, how it affects growth and development, and whether it can shrink or stabilize the tumor. Participants will take the drug for up to 5 years and have regular check-ups including blood tests, MRIs, and growth assessments.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Vorasidenib (a targeted drug taken daily as a pill)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for teenagers with certain slow-growing brain tumors, potentially delaying or avoiding the need for more aggressive therapies.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The drug may cause side effects or fail to control tumor growth.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Weigh ≥ 25 kg at Screening. * Written informed consent/assent must be obtained from a legally authorized representative, and assent must be obtained from the participant in accordance with local regulations. Participants and their families must be willing and able to comply with the scheduled visits, treatment plans, procedures, and laboratory tests, including serial peripheral blood sampling, during the study. * Have Grade 2 astrocytoma or oligodendroglioma per World Health Organisation (WHO) 2021 criteria. * Have had at least 1 prior surgery for glioma (biopsy, sub-total resection, gross-total resection) and no other prior anticancer therapy, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and do not need immediate chemotherapy or radiotherapy in the opinion of the Investigator. * Have: * Confirmed IDH1 or IDH2 gene mutation, as well as known 1p19q and/or ATRX (Alpha Thalassemia/Mental Retardation Syndrome X-linked) status based on local testing of tumor tissue by an accredited laboratory. * For astrocytoma: Absence of 1p19q co-deletion and/or documented loss of nuclear ATRX expression or ATRX mutation by local testing. * For oligodendroglioma: Presence of 1p19q co-deletion by local testing. * Have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-evaluable, measurable, non-enhancing disease * Have a Karnofsky Performance Score (KPS; for participants ≥ 16 years of age) or Lansky Play-Performance Scale (LPPS; for participants \< 16 years of age) score of ≥ 70. Karnofsky Performance Score and LPPS \< 70 due to functional limitations as a result of prior surgical resections or due to the anatomical location of the tumor will be permitted. * Have adequate bone marrow function as evidenced by: * Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1500/mm3 or ≥ 1.5 × 109/L * Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL * Platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3 or ≥ 100 × 109/L * Have adequate hepatic function as evidenced by: * Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN; if \> 1.5 ULN and due to Gilbert syndrome, total bilirubin ≤ 3 × ULN with direct bilirubin ≤ ULN * AST at or below ULN and ALT at or below ULN * Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤ 2.5 × ULN * Have adequate renal function as evidenced by: * Serum creatinine ≤ 2.5 × ULN, OR * eGFR \> 40 mL/min/1.73 m2 based on the Bedside Schwartz method 0.413 × (Height in cm/Serum Creatinine in mg/dL) * Have recovered from any clinically relevant toxicities associated with any prior surgery for the treatment of glioma unless stabilized under medical management (functional limitations as a result of prior surgical resections or due to the anatomical location of the tumor will be permitted). * Female participants of reproductive potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test before starting investigational medicinal product (IMP). * Women of childbearing potential as well as fertile male participants with female partners of reproductive potential, must agree to abstain from sexual intercourse or to use 2 effective methods of contraception from screening until at least 90 days after the last dose of IMP. Exclusion Criteria: * Have had any prior anticancer therapy other than surgery (biopsy, sub-total resection, gross-total resection) for treatment of glioma including, but not limited to, systemic chemotherapy, radiotherapy, vaccines, small molecule inhibitors, IDH inhibitors, and investigational agents. * Have features assessed as high-risk by the Investigator. * Have leptomeningeal disease. * Concurrent active malignancy except for curatively resected nonmelanoma skin cancer or curatively treated carcinoma in situ. Participants with previously treated malignancies are eligible provided they have been disease-free for 3 years at Screening. * Unable to swallow oral medication. * Are pregnant or breastfeeding. * Are participating in another interventional study at the same time; participation in non-interventional registries or epidemiological studies is allowed. * Have a severe or uncontrolled active acute or chronic infection or an unexplained fever \> 38.5°C within 7 days of C1D1. * Have a known hypersensitivity to any of the components of vorasidenib. * Have significant active cardiac disease within 6 months before the start of IMP, including New York Heart Association Class III or IV congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and/or stroke. * Have a heart-rate corrected QT interval using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≥ 450 msec or other factors that increase the risk of QT prolongation or arrhythmic events. * Are taking therapeutic doses of steroids (defined as \> 1.5 mg/day dexamethasone or \>10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) for signs/symptoms of glioma. Participants taking physiologic doses (defined as ≤ 1.5 mg/day dexamethasone or ≤ 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) for medical conditions not related to glioma will be permitted. * Are taking any medications that are CYP2C19 or CYP3A substrates with a narrow therapeutic index or strong inhibitors of CYP1A2. * Have known active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, known positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody results, or AIDS-related illness. Participants with a sustained viral response to HCV treatment or immunity to prior HBV infection will be permitted. Participants with chronic HBV or HIV that is adequately suppressed by institutional practice will be permitted. * Have known active inflammatory gastrointestinal disease, chronic diarrhea, previous gastric resection or lap band dysphagia, short-gut syndrome, gastroparesis, or other condition that limits the ingestion or gastrointestinal absorption of drugs administered orally. Gastroesophageal reflux disease under medical treatment is allowed (assuming no drug interaction potential). * Have any other acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition.
