About this trial

The precise positioning of the emerging group of pharmacological inhibitors of mutant IDH enzymes remains to be refined by further studies and defined in national and international guidelines. The present study shall help to close this important knowledge gap when trying to define the role of mutant IDH inhibitors in the treatment algorithms for patients with IDH-mutant WHO grade 3 gliomas.

Safusidenib is a novel, oral, potent, brain penetrant inhibitor of mutant IDH1. It has shown high blood brain barrier penetration in both pre-clinical and clinical studies and demonstrated anti-tumor activity with complete or partial responses.

We aim at demonstrating the efficacy of safusidenib in patients with newly diagnosed IDH1-mutant CNS WHO grade 3 oligodendroglioma and astrocytoma, measured by progression-free survival at12 months.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male or female, age ≥18 years.

Newly diagnosed and histologically confirmed IDH1-mutant WHO grade 3 glioma, without or with residual disease: astrocytoma IDH1-mutant, or oligodendroglioma, IDH1-mutant and 1p/19q-codeleted, CNS WHO grade 3. IDH1 mutation can be defined by immunohistochemistry or by sequencing. Any location in the central nervous system is permitted.

Karnofsky performance status of 70 or more.

Adequate hematologic and organ functions.

Disqualifiers

Inability to undergo brain or spine MRI.

Intent to be treated with radiotherapy or alkylating agent chemotherapy.

Any investigational antitumor therapy other than those under investigation in this study.

Any severe concomitant condition including active and uncontrolled infections or other severe concurrent disease, which makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the study or which could jeopardize compliance with the protocol, in the opinion of the investigator.
