thiotepa and Nervous System Disorders

thiotepa has been researched along with Nervous System Disorders in 7 studies

Thiotepa: A very toxic alkylating antineoplastic agent also used as an insect sterilant. It causes skin, gastrointestinal, CNS, and bone marrow damage. According to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985), thiotepa may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen (Merck Index, 11th ed).

Trial Outcomes

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." (NCT01235793)
Timeframe: (1) One Year (2) Until date of death from any cause, assessed up to 2 years
