Study Type:   Interventional
Study Design:   Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title:   Randomized Phase 3 Open Label Study - Enzastaurin vs. Lomustine in Glioblastoma

Further study details as provided by Eli Lilly and Company:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The primary objective is to compare Enzastaurin versus Lomustine in patients who for the second time have brain cancer (specifically intracranial glioblastoma) to see what effect the drugs have on keeping the disease from progressing (worsening). [ Time Frame: baseline to measured progressive disease (PD) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To measure survival to see how the tumor responded to the therapy and how long the response lasted using MRI (a scanning technique). [ Time Frame: time of response to progressive disease ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To measure changes in patient's ability to care for themselves (this will be determined through a standard survey). [ Time Frame: over entire study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To measure changes from baseline and a neurologic exam. [ Time Frame: baseline, each cycle ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • To review all bad reactions reported by the patient and detected in blood tests. [ Time Frame: each cycle ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • To review the effect of the cancer on the patient's ability to care for themselves and on their general health status. [ Time Frame: over entire study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To determine through blood tests how long the medication is in the patient's body. [ Time Frame: cycle 1, cycle 4 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To review through testing of tumor and blood samples to see if there are reasons why some patients responded to the drugs better than other patients. [ Time Frame: baseline, cycle 2, end of study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
