Study Details

This phase I trial investigates the side effects and best dose of Peposertib, and to see how well it works in combination with radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma or gliosarcoma. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Peposertib may further stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving Peposertib with radiation therapy may work better than radiation therapy alone in treating patients with glioblastoma or gliosarcoma.

Arms

  • Experimental: Stage I (Peposertib, Radiation therapy, Temozolomide)
    CONCURRENT: Patients undergo standard of care radiation therapy daily (Monday-Friday) for 30 fractions. Patients also receive Peposertib PO on each day of radiation therapy and given 1-2 hours before each treatment fraction. Treatment continues for 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ADJUVANT: Patients receive temozolomide PO QD on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
  • Experimental: Stage II (Peposertib, Radiation, Temozolomide, Surgery)
    CONCURRENT: Patients receive Peposertib and undergo standard of care radiation therapy as in Stage I. Within 1-14 days after the completion of radiation therapy, patients undergo surgical resection. ADJUVANT: Patients receive temozolomide as in Stage I.

Primary Outcome Measure
