PNOC025: Magrolimab in Children and Adults with Recurrent or Progressive Malignant Brain Tumors
Summary
Please note, this study is currently suspended: FDA Partial Clinical Hold
The goal of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of magrolimab in children and adults with recurrent or progressive malignant brain tumors. Magrolimab is a novel antibody anticancer therapeutic agent targeting a certain protein called CD47. Binding of magrolimab to CD47 on target malignant cells blocks the "don't eat me" signal by cancer cells and enhances tumor cell phagocytosis. Other early “pre-clinical” studies have shown that treatment with magrolimab leads to prolonged survival in models of Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumors (ATRT), diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), high-grade glioma (adult and pediatric), medulloblastoma, and embryonal tumors formerly called Primitive Neuro-Ectodermal Tumors (PNET). Safety studies in humans have proven that magrolimab has an excellent safety profile. Ongoing studies are currently testing magrolimab in adult myelodysplastic syndromes, acute myeloid leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, colorectal, ovarian, and bladder cancers.
Trial Information
What to expect:
Patients meeting inclusion criteria will receive intravenous (IV) infusions of magrolimab as part of their study participation for the treatment of their brain tumor.
Patients will be divided into two groups based on age, Stratum A: 3-17, Stratum B: ≥ 18 years of age
Participants may continue to receive magrolimab for up to 12 months or longer from the time of study entry, pending discussion with study chairs and study sponsor.
Approach
Treatment:
Each participant will receive magrolimab intravenously (IV):
Cycle 0: Priming dose of 1 mg/kg during Cycle 0
Cycles 1 and 2: Either 30 mg/kg or 45mg mg/kg dose weekly for eight weeks
All additional cycles: Either 30 mg/kg or 45 mg/kg dose every two weeks for the remainder of the study.
Patients will be followed for adverse events related to study agent for a minimum of 12 months.
Participants will be followed for clinical outcomes for up to years after completion of Magrolimab treatment.
