Drug delivery system for Convection Enhanced Delivery consists of a portable pump (Pegasus vario or Pega vario) with drug reservoir (Pega Bag) and infusion line (Pega Line). Main implanted parts are the port access system (PORT-A-CATH) and the intratumoral catheter (Medtronic ventricular catheter).

In this multinational Phase III study the efficacy and safety of 10 µM AP 12009 is compared to standard chemotherapy (temozolomide or BCNU or CCNU) in adult patients with confirmed recurrent or refractory anaplastic astrocytoma (WHO grade III) or secondary glioblastoma (WHO grade IV).

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of the 10 µM concentration of AP 12009 and standard chemotherapy (temozolomide, BCNU, CCNU) in adult patients with recurrent or refractory anaplastic astrocytoma (AA, WHO grade III) or secondary glioblastoma (GBM, WHO grade IV). AP 12009 (trabedersen) is a phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotide specific for the mRNA of human Transforming Growth Factor beta 2 (TGF-beta-2), which is applied intratumorally. The growth factor TGF-beta plays a key role in malignant progression of various tumors by inducing proliferation, invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis, and escape from immunosurveillance. In patients with high-grade glioma, the TGF-beta-2 overexpression is associated with disease stage, clinical prognosis, and the immunodeficient state of the patients. Main objective of the study is to determine survival (rate) and tumor response.

Important note: Due to early trial termination, resulting in limited data availability, all analyses remain descriptive by nature, only. No conclusive endpoint analysis can be performed.

Efficacy and Safety of AP 12009 in Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Anaplastic Astrocytoma or Secondary Glioblastoma

Efficacy and Safety of AP 12009 in Adult Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Anaplastic Astrocytoma or Secondary Glioblastoma as Compared to Standard Chemotherapy Treatment: A Randomized, Actively Controlled, Open Label Clinical Phase III Study.

Survival rate was defined as the proportion of participants known to be alive at 24 months from randomization. If a participant's status was unknown and there was no follow-up information available, they were categorized as 'Died' for the purposes of the analysis.

Survival status was assessed at 24 months from randomization. Participants with unknown or missing status were considered treatment failures, i.e., assumed to be dead. The category "Lost to / insufficient follow-up" includes participants who were alive at last data collection point but did not yet have enough follow-up time to reach the 24 month time point.

Survival rate was defined as the proportion of participants known to be alive at each time-point from randomization. Participants with unknown or missing status were considered treatment failures, i.e., assumed to be dead.

Survival status was assessed at each time-point from randomization. Participants with unknown or missing status were considered treatment failures, i.e., assumed to be dead. The category "Lost to follow-up" for each time-point includes participants who were alive at the last data collection point but did not yet have enough follow-up time to reach the time point.

Median overall survival was defined as the date of randomization to the date of death. If a participant's status was unknown and there was no follow-up information available, they were categorized as 'Died' for the purposes of the analysis. Analysis was by Kaplan-Meier estimation.

Tumor response was classified based on the (neuro-)radiologist's evaluation according to the Macdonald Response Criteria for bidimensionally measurable disease as outlined below:

* Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all enhancing tumor on consecutive MRI scans at least 1 month apart, off steroids, neurologically stable or improved.
* Partial Response (PR): ≥50% reduction in size of enhancing tumor on consecutive MRI scans at least 1 month apart, steroids stable or reduced, neurologically stable or improved.
* Progressive Disease (PD): ≥25% increase in size of enhancing tumor or any new tumor on MRI scans, steroids stable or increased, neurologically worse.
* Stable Disease (SD): all other situations.

Two qualified neuro-radiologists reviewed scans at each MRI time point, with adjudication of discrepancies by a third reviewer. Their findings and clinical information were independently reviewed by a neuro-oncologist, who made the assessment of overall response.

Overall response rate was the proportion of participants with a best response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) observed from the start of treatment until disease progression.

Tumor control rate was defined as the proportion of participants assessed as having Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), or Stable Disease (SD). Participants with unknown or missing response were treated as non-responders.

Duration of response was defined as the time from the first documentation of confirmed response (Complete Response, CR, or Partial Response, PR) to the first signs of Progressive Disease (PD), as assessed by the study neuro-oncologist. Median Duration of Response was calculated by Kaplan-Meier estimate.

Censoring rules were:

* at the date of randomization -- participants without baseline assessments, or for those with no post-baseline timor assessments who were discontinued for other than progressive disease or death.
* at the date of last tumor assessment -- discontinuation other than PD or death, or if a new treatment was started prior to disease progression
* at the date of death or last tumor assessment -- death or PD after one missed tumor assessment
* at the date of last tumor assessment -- death or PD after more than one missed tumor assessment
* at the date of last tumor assessment -- participants on ongoing treatment at data cut-off

Tumor response was classified based on the (neuro-)radiologist's evaluation:

* Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all enhancing tumor on consecutive MRI scans at least 1 month apart, off steroids, neurologically stable or improved.
* Partial Response (PR): ≥50% reduction in size of enhancing tumor on consecutive MRI scans at least 1 month apart, steroids stable or reduced, neurologically stable or improved.
* Progressive Disease (PD): ≥25% increase in size of enhancing tumor or any new tumor on MRI scans, steroids stable or increased, neurologically worse.
* Stable Disease (SD): all other situations.

Based on clinical and imaging data, an independent neuro-oncologist made the final assessment of "Progressed" versus "Not Progressed". Participants who had MRI assessment results missing or unknown were "UNK or missing", and were treated as "Progressed" for the purposes of the calculation.

Time to progression was calculated from the date of randomization to the date of the first documented tumor progression. Participants who did not progress or died were censored at the last tumor assessment date or the date of start of a new anti-tumor treatment or death.

Only treatment-emergent adverse events are listed, defined as any AE whose onset occurred or intensity worsened after undertaking the first study procedure or first dose of study drug (whichever occurred first) but less than 28 days after medication/procedures had stopped. Adverse events (including lab tests) were assessed at study visits.

The Intent-to-treat population includes all participants randomized. Early study discontinuation with site closures led to a high proportion of participants being censored or lost to follow-up in the initial analysis. Additional survival data were collected in a post-hoc fashion under a protocol amendment. These data are presented.
