This was a Phase 1, open label, multicenter, 8-arm, dose escalation study of dordaviprone (ONC201) in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and recurrent/refractory H3 K27M-mutant gliomas. The primary endpoint of this study was to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of dordaviprone (ONC201) in pediatric glioma patients as a single agent in combination with radiation.

- Inclusion Criteria: 1. 2 to less than 19 years of age. 2. Patient body weight must be above the minimum necessary for the patient to receive the ONC201 dose indicated for the currently enrolling dose level. The minimum body weight ranges from 10-27.5kg depending on the dose level. 3. Arm A and G: Patients with glioma who are positive for the H3 K27M mutation (positive testing in CLIA laboratory) and have completed at least one line of prior therapy. Evidence of progression is not required so that ONC201 may be administered to patients in the maintenance setting or to patients with recurrent disease. No more than two episodes of recurrence from radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy are allowed. Use of bevacizumab solely for treatment of radiation necrosis, pseudoprogression, or treatment effect will not be considered a recurrence. Post-mortem biopsy is required if H3 K27M status of tumor is unknown and archival tumor tissue not available. Arm B: Patients with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), defined as tumors with a pontine epicenter and diffuse involvement of the pons, are eligible with or without histologic confirmation. Post-mortem biopsy is required if H3 K27M status of tumor is unknown and archival tumor tissue not available. Arm C: Patients with midline gliomas are eligible with or without histologic confirmation and must be eligible for tumor biopsy as deemed by the site Investigator. Arm D: Patients with recurrent glioma who are positive for the H3 K27M mutation (positive testing in CLIA laboratory), have completed at least one line of prior therapy, must be willing to undergo serial lumbar puncture to obtain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and must be scheduled to undergo sedated MRIs. Local anesthesia for spinal tap is also allowed. Evidence of progression is not required so that ONC201 may be administered to patients in the maintenance setting or to patients with recurrent disease. No more than two prior episodes of recurrence from radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy are allowed. Use of bevacizumab solely for treatment of radiation necrosis, pseudoprogression, or treatment effect will not be considered a recurrence.

Male patients must be surgically sterile or must agree to use effective contraception during the period of the trial and for at least 90 days after completion of treatment. The decision of effective contraception will be based on the judgment of the principal investigator. 10.

Full study description
- brief Summary
- This was a Phase 1, open label, multicenter, 8-arm, dose escalation study of dordaviprone (ONC201) in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and recurrent/refractory H3 K27M-mutant gliomas. The primary endpoint of this study was to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of dordaviprone (ONC201) in pediatric glioma patients as a single agent in combination with radiation.
- detailed Description
- This study was to include 8 arms; the intention for each arm is summarized below: * Arm A: To define the RP2D for single agent dordaviprone (ONC201) in pediatric patients with glioma who are positive for the H3 K27M mutation and have completed at least 1 line of prior therapy. * Arm B: To define the RP2D for dordaviprone (ONC201) in combination with radiation in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed DIPG. * Arm C: To determine intratumoral drug concentrations and biomarker expression in pediatric patients with midline gliomas. * Arm D: To determine H3 K27M DNA levels and drug concentrations in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) of pediatric patients with H3 K27M-mutant glioma. * Arm E: To define the RP2D for single agent dordaviprone (ONC201) when administered as a liquid formulation in Ora-Sweet to pediatric patients with DIPG and/or H3 K27M-mutant glioma. * Arm F: A dose expansion cohort to confirm the safety and estimate the efficacy of dordaviprone (ONC201) in recurrent H3 K27M-mutant glioma at the RP2D. * Arm G: To define the RP2D for single agent dordaviprone (ONC201) when administered on 2 consecutive days of each week in pediatric patients with H3 K27M-mutant glioma who have completed at least 1 line of prior therapy. * Arm H: To assess intra-tumoral concentrations following twice weekly dosing of dordaviprone (ONC201) in 2 cohorts: pediatric patients with DIPG and pediatric patients with thalamic gliomas. \*Note: This arm did not enroll any patients. Pediatric patients in Arms A through F received dordaviprone (ONC201) once weekly. Patients in Arms C, D, E, and F received dordaviprone (ONC201) at the RP2D determined in either Arm A or Arm B. Pediatric patients in Arm G received dordaviprone (ONC201) twice weekly on 2 consecutive days. Safety was also assessed, with evaluations including the reporting of adverse events, as well as measurements of vital signs, electrocardiograms, and clinical laboratory results. This study was terminated by an administrative protocol amendment (17 January 2023). The decision to terminate the study was not related to any safety concerns with dordaviprone (ONC201). Before the study was terminated a total of 134 patients were enrolled and had received at least 1 dose of dordaviprone (ONC201). At the time of the administrative protocol amendment, patient enrollment was completed in Arms A, B, C, D, E, and G, and patient enrollment was stopped prior to reaching the targeted enrollment in Arms F and H.
