Clinical Trial Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as hydroxyurea use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well hydroxyurea works in treating patients with unresectable benign meningioma.


Description:

OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the partial and complete response rates in patients with unresectable benign meningioma treated with hydroxyurea.

- Assess the quantitative and qualitative toxic effects of this drug in this patient population.

OUTLINE: Patients receive oral hydroxyurea twice daily for 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed at 3 months, 6 months, and then every 6 months for 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 38 patients will be accrued for this study within 13 months.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Assess Number of Patients Who Achieve Confirmed and Unconfirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) Complete Response (CR)is a complete disappearance of all measurable and evaluable disease. No new lesions, no disease related symptoms, no evidence of non-evaluable disease. Partial Response (PR)is greater than or equal to 50% decrease under baseline in sum of the products of perpendicular diameters of all measurable lesions. No progression of evaluable disease, no new lesions. Confirmation of CR or PR means a repeat scan at least 3 weeks apart documented before progression. No response means that patient did not achieve complete or partial response (either confirmed or unconfirmed). Patients treated for 2 years or progression. If responding can continue at physician's discretion. No
Secondary Number of Patients With Gr 3 Through 5 Adverse Events That Are Related to Study Drug Adverse Events (AEs) are reported by CTC 2.0 terminology. For each patient, worst grade of each event type is reported. Grade 3 - Severe, Grade 4 - Life-threatening, Grade 5 - Fatal Patients were assessed for adverse events 4 weeks after starting treatment. Assessments for adverse events continued every 3 months for the duration of protocol therapy. On average patients remained on therapy for 8 months Yes
