N0572, NCT00329719

Trial Description

Purpose:

Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temsirolimus, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Sorafenib and temsirolimus may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving sorafenib together with temsirolimus may kill more tumor cells.

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of temsirolimus when given together with sorafenib and to see how well they work in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

Eligibility:

Eligibility criteria include the following:

Final eligibility for a clinical trial is determined by the health professionals conducting the trial.

Treatment/Intervention:

Some patients will receive sorafenib by mouth twice a day. They will also receive an infusion of temsirolimus once a week. Treatment may continue for as long as benefit is shown.

Other patients will receive sorafenib by mouth twice a day for 8 days and an infusion of temsirolimus on day 1. They will undergo surgery on day 8. After recovering from surgery, patients will receive sorafenib by mouth twice a day and an infusion of temsirolimus once a week for as long as benefit is shown.

Patients will undergo blood and tissue sample collection before beginning treatment for laboratory studies.

After finishing treatment, patients will be evaluated every 6 months for 5 years and once a year thereafter.
