Is NCT06666712 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 1 trial studies Topotecan for brain tumor, recurrent.

Phase 1RecruitingJeffrey N. BruceNCT06666712Data as of May 2026

Treatment: TopotecanThe primary goal of this study is to establish the safety of chronic Convection Enhanced Delivery (CED) of the chemotherapeutic drug Topotecan for patients with recurrent malignant glioma that harbors the Isocitrate Dehydrogenase mutation (IDH-mut). The secondary goal of the study is to study drug distribution and assess the tumor response to prolonged continuous CED of Topotecan. Convection Enhanced Delivery is a novel method of drug delivery that allows administration of a drug directly to the brain. In CED, a drug pump is placed under the skin in the chest or abdominal region. The pump is connected to a catheter that is tunneled underneath the skin to the brain. The tip of the catheter then infuses Topotecan directly onto the brain tumor. There will be a total of four treatment infusions over the course of 23-29 days, with a 5-7-day rest period between each infusion. Throughout this period, patients' health will be monitored through imaging, blood draws, and regular exams. At the end of the treatment period, the pump will be removed, followed by resection of the tumor. Patients will be followed for the duration of their lives. This is the investigator's second clinical trial studying CED of TPT in recurrent glioma. In the prior Phase 1b trial, chronic pulsatile CED safely and effectively delivered Topotecan to patients with IDH mutant recurrent Glioblastoma (WHO grade 4).
