carmustine and Astrocytoma

carmustine has been researched along with Astrocytoma in 138 studies

Carmustine: A cell-cycle phase nonspecific alkylating antineoplastic agent. It is used in the treatment of brain tumors and various other malignant neoplasms. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p462) This substance may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen according to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985). (From Merck Index, 11th ed)
carmustine : A member of the class of N-nitrosoureas that is 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)urea in which one of the nitrogens is substituted by a nitroso group.

Astrocytoma: Neoplasms of the brain and spinal cord derived from glial cells which vary from histologically benign forms to highly anaplastic and malignant tumors. Fibrillary astrocytomas are the most common type and may be classified in order of increasing malignancy (grades I through IV). In the first two decades of life, astrocytomas tend to originate in the cerebellar hemispheres; in adults, they most frequently arise in the cerebrum and frequently undergo malignant transformation. (From Devita et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, pp2013-7; Holland et al., Cancer Medicine, 3d ed, p1082)

Trial Outcomes

(Phase III) Overall Survival (OS)

Survival time is defined as time from randomization to date of death from any cause and is estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Patients last known to be alive are censored at the date of last contact. Per the protocol, the pilot arms were not included in the Phase III analyses. (NCT00004259)
Timeframe: From randomization to date of death. Patients are followed until death. Analysis occurs after 155 deaths have been reported, estimated at 5.5 years from the study opening.

Interventionyears (Median)
Radiation Therapy + Temozolomide (TMZ)3.9
RT + BCNU/CCNU3.8

(Phase III) Progression-free Survival by MGMT Status

Progression is defined as a radiographic increase in size of the lesion by > 25%, recurrence of the study lesion, or the development of new lesions, confirmed by imaging. Progression-free survival time is defined as time from randomization to date of progression or death from any cause and is estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Patients last known to be alive are censored at the date of last contact. Tumor tissue samples were analyzed for methylation status of methyl guanine methyl transferase (MGMT), classified as methylated vs. unmethylated. (NCT00004259)
Timeframe: From randomization to date of death. Patients are followed until death. Analysis occurs after 155 deaths have been reported, estimated at 5.5 years from the study opening.

Methylated MGMT4.0

(Phase III) Survival Time by MGMT Status

Survival time is defined as time from randomization to date of death from any cause and is estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Patients last known to be alive are censored at the date of last contact. Tumor tissue samples were analyzed for methylation status of methyl guanine methyl transferase (MGMT), classified as methylated vs. unmethylated. (NCT00004259)
Timeframe: From randomization to date of death. Patients are followed until death. Analysis occurs after 155 deaths have been reported, estimated at 5.5 years from the study opening.

Interventionyears (Median)
Methylated MGMT7.2
Unmthylated MGMT3.1

(Phase III) Time to Tumor Progression (TTP)

Three-year rate is reported. Progression is defined as a radiographic increase in size of the lesion by > 25%, recurrence of the study lesion, or the development of new lesions, confirmed by imaging. Time to tumor progression was estimated using the cumulative incidence function (CIF) on tumor progression, with death as a competing risk. Per the protocol, the pilot arms were not included in the Phase III analyses. (NCT00004259)
Timeframe: From randomization to date of death. Patients are followed until death. Analysis occurs after 155 deaths have been reported, estimated at 5.5 years from the study opening.

(Phase I) Number of Subjects With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT) on the Two Pilot Arms

Adverse events were graded using CTCAE v2.0. Grade refers to the severity of the adverse event (AE). The CTCAE v2.0 assigns Grades 1 through 5 with unique clinical descriptions of severity for each AE based on this general guideline: Grade 1 Mild AE, Grade 2 Moderate AE, Grade 3 Severe AE, Grade 4 Life-threatening or disabling AE, Grade 5 Death related to AE. Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) was defined as grade 3+ pulmonary toxicity, grade 4+ thrombocytopenia (< 25,000 for 5 days), neutropenia (< 500/microl for 7 days), or neutropenia of any duration with fever requiring hospital admission after one dose reduction of 50% in BCNU. A 20% rate of grade 3+ pulmonary toxicities or a 40% rate of grade 4+ thrombocytopenia and neutropenia was considered unacceptable for a treatment arm combining RT, TMZ, and BCNU. (NCT00004259)
Timeframe: From start of treatment to 3 months

(Phase III) Number of Patients With Grade 3 or Higher Toxicity

Adverse events were graded using CTCAE v2.0. Grade refers to the severity of the AE. The CTCAE v2.0 assigns Grades 1 through 5 with unique clinical descriptions of severity for each AE based on this general guideline: Grade 1 Mild AE, Grade 2 Moderate AE, Grade 3 Severe AE, Grade 4 Life-threatening or disabling AE, Grade 5 Death related to AE. The number of patients with grade or higher toxicity was calculated overall and for non-hematologic toxicity only. Per the protocol, the pilot arms were not included in the Phase III analyses. (NCT00004259)
Timeframe: From randomization to date of death. Patients are followed until death. Analysis occurs after 155 deaths have been reported, estimated at 5.5 years from the study opening.

Safest Dose of Temozolomide for the DRBEAT Regimen

Safety will be assessed using a dose escalation design for temozolomide's use to determine the target dose and also to evaluate any and all acute treatment related toxicities. During the course of patient follow up and therapy, toxicities will be evaluated, particularly as the investigators will be determining the target dose of temozolomide. One of the major criteria for dose limiting toxicity for the study will be any Grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic toxicity from a list of commonly expected toxicities associated with autologous transplantation and temozolomide.

One-year Progression-free Survival and Overall Survival

"Efficacy of the DRBEAT Regimen will be assessed by analysis of~one-year progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time interval from maximal response from therapy to tumor regrowth, progression*, or death, (*Progression is defined as meeting the response criteria listed in Table 4: Response Criteria for Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma according to Abrey LE, Batchelor TT, Ferreri AJM et al.)~and~Overall survival, defined as the time interval between the date of transplant and the date of death from any cause."

Number of Participants With Serious and Non-serious Adverse Events Assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0)

Here is the count of participants with serious and non-serious adverse events assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0). A non-serious adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence. A serious adverse event is an adverse event or suspected adverse reaction that results in death, a life threatening adverse drug experience, hospitalization, disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, congenital anomaly/birth defect or important medical events that jeopardize the patient or subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the previous outcomes mentioned.

Number of Patients With an Objective Response

Objective response was assessed by comparison with baseline dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging with perfusion using Neuro-oncology Working Group proposed guidelines. Complete Response is disappearance of all measurable and non-measurable disease for at least 4 weeks. Partial Response is >/= 50% decrease in lesions for at least 4 weeks. Stable Disease does not meet the criteria for complete response, partial response or progression and requires stable lesions compared with baseline. Progression is >/= 25% increase in lesions. (NCT01454596)
Timeframe: 4 weeks after cell infusion and monthly as feasible up to 12 months

Progression Free Survival

Progression was assessed by the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria and is defined as the circumstance when the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan is ranked -2 (definitely worse) or -3 (development of a new lesion). (NCT01454596)
Timeframe: Time from the date of registration to the date of first observation of progressive disease up to 6 months after end of treatment
