Study of Avelumab in Combination With Lenvatinib for Children With Primary CNS Tumors

Study Purpose

This study consists of 2 parts: Dose Escalation Part 1 and Dose Expansion Part 2. The Dose Escalation Part 1 will evaluate the safety and tolerability of Avelumab in combination with Lenvatinib and determine the recommended Avelumab and Lenvatinib dose for expansion. Dose Expansion Part 2 will assess the efficacy of Avelumab in combination with Lenvatinib by Progression-free Survival in participants with pre-defined primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Eligible Ages 2 Years - 18 Years

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Participants with histologically confirmed diagnosis of primary CNS malignancy as follows: a) Primary CNS tumors: the tumor should be considered high-grade histologically; prior radiotherapy is allowed; participants must have progressed after at least 1 prior systemic therapy, except for those with diffuse midline glioma with or without the H3 K27M mutation.
b) Specific for participants with diffuse midline glioma with or without the H3 K27M mutation: prior radiotherapy is allowed; no more than 1 prior systemic therapy is allowed; participants with diffuse midline glioma with or without the H3 K27M mutation who have not received prior systemic therapy but have prior radiotherapy only are allowed to enroll.
  • - On screening scans, measurable disease by RANO criteria.
  • - Participants must have a Lansky performance status >= 50 for age <= 16 years or Karnofsky performance status >= 50 for age > 16 years at Screening.
  • - Other protocol defined inclusion criteria could apply.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - Participants with low-grade gliomas, for example but not limited to, subependymal giant cell astrocytoma, pilocytic astrocytoma and World Health organization (WHO) Grade 1 tumors.
  • - Participants demonstrating evidence of worsening of neurologic deficit within 1 week prior to initiation of study interventions.
  • - Participants with bulky tumor, defined as: a) Tumor with any evidence of uncal herniation or midline shift; b) Tumor with a diameter of > 4 centimeters (cm) in 1 dimension on T2/ fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images; c) Tumor that in the opinion of the Investigator shows significant mass effect.
  • - Participants are not eligible if they experience uncontrolled seizures, defined as: a) Seizures requiring regular use of rescue medications.
b) Seizures requiring increasing doses of antiepileptic medications. c) Seizures that in the opinion of the Investigator compromise the ability of the participant to tolerate study intervention or interfere with study procedures.
  • - Participants who have received major surgery (including but not limited to neurosurgical resection, brain biopsy, or radiation to the primary brain tumor) within 28 days prior to the first dose of study interventions.
  • - Participants with history of intracranial hemorrhage/spinal cord hemorrhage within 28 days prior to the first dose of study interventions.
- Other protocol defined exclusion criteria could apply

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05081180
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Avelumab + Lenvatinib

Interventions

Drug: - Avelumab

Participants with primary CNS malignancies who have received at least 1 prior therapy will be enrolled into Dose Escalation Part 1 and will receive intravenous infusion at a flat dose or weight based dose of Avelumab, every 2 weeks (Q2W) until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. Enrollment into part 1 of the study will end when Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or a safe Recommended Dose for Expansion (RDE) for the expansion cohort is determined. Participants with defined CNS tumors will be enrolled into Dose Expansion Part 2 and will receive RDE in Part 2 until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.

Drug: - Lenvatinib

Participants with primary CNS malignancies who have received at least 1 prior therapy will be enrolled into Dose Escalation Part 1 and will receive daily oral escalated dose level of Lenvatinib until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. Enrollment into part 1 of the study will end when MTD and/or a safe Recommended Dose for Expansion (RDE) for the expansion cohort is determined. Participants with defined CNS tumors will be enrolled into Dose Expansion Part 2 and will receive RDE of Lenvatinib in Part 2 until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.
