Korábbi kezelés

• Any of the following prior anticancer therapy:
  • Prior treatment with Bevacizumab or other VEGF agents within 12 months prior to study registration.
  • Non-standard radiation therapy such as brachytherapy, systemic radioisotope therapy, or intra-operative radiotherapy (IORT) to the target site at any time prior to study registration.
  • Standard radiation therapy within 12 weeks prior to study registration.
  • Any systemic therapy within 28 days or 2 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to study registration (this may include investigational agents, small-molecule kinase inhibitors, non-cytotoxic hormonal therapy, biologic agents, metronomic/protracted low-dose chemotherapy, etc.).
  • Nitrosoureas or mitomycin C within 42 days prior to study registration.
• A tumor located within 1.0cm of a ventricle AND it is determined by the surgeon, PI, and Sponsor to be a risk for drug extravasation to the subarachnoid space if given catheter placement and drug administration.
• Treatment with antiepileptic medications must have a two-week history of a stable dose of antiepileptic without seizures prior to study registration.
• Patients with corticosteroid requirements to control cerebral edema must be maintained at a stable or decreasing dose for a minimum of two weeks without progression of clinical symptoms prior to study registration.

Más betegség

• Spinal disease.
• Psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with the study requirements.
• Evidence of acute intracranial or intratumoral hemorrhage either by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computerized tomography (CT) scan (subjects with resolving hemorrhage changes, punctate hemorrhage, or hemosiderin are eligible).

Életkor

• Serious intercurrent illness, as determined by the treating physician, which would compromise either patient safety or study outcomes such as:
  • Hypertension (two or more blood pressure readings performed at screening of systolic blood pressure (SBP) or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) above 95th percentile for age) despite optimal treatment.
  • Active medically significant infection unresponsive to antibiotics (e.g., non-healing wound, ulcer), uncontrolled systemic infection, or bone fracture.
  • Clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias.
  • Untreated hypothyroidism.
  • Congestive heart failure.
  • Myocarditis.
  • Inherited bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy with the risk of bleeding.
  • Known active malignancy other than ependymoma or high-grade glioma.

Egyéb

• Infratentorial location of tumor.
• Involvement of the leptomeninges.
• A tumor within 1.5cm of critical structures, including the optic chiasm, optic nerves, or brainstem.

• 6 years to 21 years* of age.
• Lesion number and size:
  • Phase 1a/b only: A single lesion (less than or equal to) ≤3.5 cm (longest axis) and volume of (less than or equal to) ≤22.4 mL as the largest tumor (subsequent to individual Cohort lesion size requirements).
  • Phase 2a only: A single lesion or any number of multiple lesions separated by (less than or equal to) ≤3 cm; each lesion (less than or equal to) ≤3.5 cm (longest axis) and volume of (less than or equal to) ≤22.4 mL as the largest tumor.
• Diagnosis:
  • Documented recurrent, refractory, or progressive ependymoma or HGG not eligible for resection or no longer receiving standard of care.
  • Phase 2a only: May include patients with recurrent, refractory, or progressive ependymoma or HGG where SOC surgery could be safely delayed four (4) weeks post-infusate.
  • Documented histologically confirmed high-grade glioma [following 2021 WHO CNS5 glioma nomenclature, e.g., Anaplastic astrocytoma, Anaplastic pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA), Anaplastic ganglioglioma, Anaplastic oligodendroglioma, Glioblastoma, Diffuse midline glioma, H3K27M mutant].
• Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 60. For subjects <16 years of age, Lansky score ≥ 60.
• Acceptable liver function:
  • Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal
  • AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) ≤ 3.0 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Acceptable renal function:
  • <!-- -->
  • Serum creatinine ≤1.5xULN
• Acceptable hematologic status (without hematologic support):
• ANC ≥1000 cells/uL
• Platelet count ≥100,000/uL
• Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL
  • All subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test, and subjects must agree to use effective means of contraception (for example, surgical sterilization or the use of barrier contraception with either a condom or diaphragm in conjunction with spermicidal gel or an IUD) with their partner from entry into the study through 6 months after the last dose.
  • Life expectancy of at least 2 months.
  • *Will consider treatment of subjects up to 25 years of age on a per-patient basis if no other co-morbidities are present that require subspecialty consultation outside of neurosurgical and oncologic care.
