Brentuximab Vedotin in Relapsed/Refractory Germ Cell Tumors

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a Phase II study to evaluate the activity of brentuximab vedotin in relapsed/refractory non-seminomatous germ cell tumors (NSGCT).

Clinical Trial Description

Primary Objective To determine the anti-tumor efficacy of brentuximab vedotin in relapsed/ refractory NSGCT.

Secondary Objectives

1. To determine the progression free survival in patients with relapsed/ refractory NSGCT treated with brentuximab vedotin.

2. To determine the overall survival of patients with relapsed/ refractory NSGCT treated with brentuximab vedotin.

3. To determine the safety and tolerability of brentuximab vedotin in this patient population.

Eligible patients will be divided into two cohorts, those who are CD30 positive and those who are CD30 negative/unknown. Both groups will be treated similarly and in parallel but analyzed separately. CD30 status may be unknown in the unlikely case of tumor-marker-only relapse or when a fresh tumor biopsy is not feasible, and archival tumor tissue is not obtainable despite efforts to do so. These patients will be included in the CD30 negative cohort for analysis purposes, since statistically NSGCT are more likely to be CD30 negative. The number of such patients with unknown CD30 status should not exceed 5 patients.

Eligible patients will be treated with brentuximab vedotin at 1.8 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks (maximum dose of 180 mg) indefinitely until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or study closure.Eligible patients with grade 2 peripheral neuropathy at enrollment will be treated with brentuximab vedotin at 1.2 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks (maximum dose of 180 mg) indefinitely until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or study closure. Response to treatment will be assessed clinically with history, physical exam and tumor markers measurement (BHCG and AFP) on day 1 of each cycle and with CT scans after cycle 2, 4, and every 4 cycles thereafter while receiving treatment. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
