Study summary

The objective of this study is to assess the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of Liposomal Curcumin (LC) in combination with radiotherapy (RT) and Temozolomide (TMZ) in patients with newly diagnosed High-Grade Gliomas (HGG).

Inclusion Criteria: 1. ≥18 years of age 2. Histologically confirmed HGG (WHO grade III or IV, including GBM, astrocytoma, gliosarcoma, H3K27M mutant diffuse midline glioma). Patients with methylated or unmethylated O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter are eligible, as are IDH WT and mutant patients as long as the treatment plan is for combined XRT/TMZ. The neuropathologic diagnosis of HGG will be made at the respective institution. If any question arises regarding the accuracy of the neuropathologic diagnosis, slides (and pathological blocks, if necessary) will be centrally reviewed 3. Planning standard therapy with TMZ and XRT for 6 weeks and adjuvant TMZ for six 28-day cycles. 4. Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS) ≥ 70% Adequate organ and marrow function defined as: * Hgb \> 9 g/dL * ANC ≥ 1500/µL * Platelet count ≥ 100,000/µL * Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 \* institutional ULN * AST and ALT ≤ 3 \* institutional ULN OR * Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 unless data exist supporting safe use at lower values of renal function, but eGFR must be ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 5. Patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who are on effective antiretroviral therapy are eligible if the viral load was assessed as undetectable within 6 months prior to baseline 6. Women: WOCBP must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control or abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation 7. Men: must agree to use adequate contraception prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 4 months after completion of LC administration Exclusion Criteria: 1. Any concurrent cancer diagnosis that is untreated, actively treated, or has undergone any therapy (XRT, cytotoxic, targeted, immunotherapeutic, etc.) within 2 years of study enrollment, with the exception of squamous or basal cell skin cancer 2. Patient has not recovered from AEs due to prior anticancer therapy (i.e., residual toxicities \> Grade 1), with the exception of alopecia 3. Receiving any other investigational agent 4. Active infection requiring systemic antibiotics 5. History of allergic reaction to compounds that are chemically or biologically similar to LC 6. Patient is taking a medication that may potentiate hemolysis 7. Unstable angina or myocardial infarction within the past 6 months 8. Prolonged QTc interval, Fridericia formula (QTcF) (\> 450 msec for males or \> 460 msec for females) 9. Psychiatric illness or social situation that could limit compliance with study requirements 10. Pregnant or breastfeeding

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • The number of observed Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLTs) — 10 weeks
    The MTD/RP2D of LC in combination with XRT and TMZ and adjuvant TMZ in newly diagnosed HGG will be determined by recording the number of observed dose limiting toxicities (DLTs). DLTs, as defined in this study occur if in the first three patients entered at a dose-level, more than one of these 3 experiences a serious adverse event, as defined by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 5. If one of the first three patients entered at the level experiences an SAE (as defined by NCI CTCAE Version 5), then three additional patients are entered at that same dose level. If one of the additional three patients experiences an SAE (as defined by NCI CTCAE Version 5), the dose is not advanced beyond that level.
  • The number of observed Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLTs) — The duration of treatment for each patient, minimum of 34 weeks
    The safety and tolerability of LC infused IV over 3 hours will be assessed by recording the number of observed DLTs. DLTs, as defined in this study occur if in the first three patients entered at a dose-level, more than one of these 3 experiences a serious adverse event, as defined by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 5. If one of the first three patients entered at the level experiences an SAE (as defined by NCI CTCAE Version 5), then three additional patients are entered at that same dose level. If one of the additional three patients experiences an SAE (as defined by NCI CTCAE Version 5), the dose is not advanced beyond that level.
