Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme Clinical Trials Facts presented on Clinical Trials Search is not designed to be a substitute for certified medical advice, travels to or treatment with a real dr.. We aren't doctors. Always consult your mD on Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme Clinical research trials and Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme medical trials occur in many of places across the U.S.A.. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally assess the effectiveness of new does drugs. The role of the studies / undertakings is to figure out certain human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular means for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to locate treatments for all forms of circumstances, including Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme. Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme Clinical Trials and other clinical trials permit volunteers to get medical treatment options before they are available to the masses. Most times the human subjects acquire treatment for free of charge, and sometimes they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme clinical trial. Participants oftentimes recieve the finest healthcare available for their Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme condition. Dangers are a reality, nonetheless, and might include extra or frequent physician calls, health hazards (potentially life-endangering), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally regulated with strict guidelines to protect clinical trials subjects.

Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme



Glufosfamide in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme

For Condition: recurrent adult brain tumor,adult glioblastoma multiforme
Status: No longer recruiting
Sponsor(s): EORTC Early Clinical Studies Group ,
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of glufosfamide in treating patients who have recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.
Details: OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the activity of glufosfamide, in terms of objective response rate and/or progression-free survival at 6 months, in patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme. II. Determine the duration of objective response in patients treated with this regimen. III. Determine the toxic effects and pharmacokinetic profile of this regimen in these patients. PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive glufosfamide IV over 60 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with stable disease receive treatment for a minimum of 6 months or until progression. Patients with an objective complete response receive a maximum of 2 additional courses of treatment after confirmation of response. Patients are followed every 6 weeks until progression. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 28 patients will be accrued for this study.
