9 Phase II-III clinical trials in low-grade gliomas- Radiotherapy
10 Phase II-III clinical trials in low-grade gliomas- Radiotherapy CONCLUSIONS PHASE III RADIOTHERAPY Timing Early post-operative radiotherapy improves PFS and controls seizures, but not OS radiation is delayed until disease progression Dose Low doses of radiation(45-54 Gy) are as effective as high doses and better tolerated

12 Phase II-III clinical trials in low-grade gliomas - Chemotherapy
13 Phase II-III clinical trials in low-grade gliomas - Radio vs Chemotherapy RT VERSUS QTP Temozolomide chemotherapy versus radiotherapy in molecularly characterized (1p loss) low -grade glioma: A randomized phase III intergroup study by the EORTC/NCICCTG/ TROG/MRC-CTU (EORTC ). Meeting: 2013 ASCO Annual Meeting Background: Outcome of low-grade glioma (LGG) is highly variable. We investigated whether primary chemotherapy in comparison to standard radiotherapy (RT) prolongs progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS), and whether prognostic molecular factors could be defined. Methods: Progressive, symptomatic or high-risk patients with a LGG requiring treatment other than surgery were randomized (after stratification for 1p-status) to either conformal RT (50.4 Gy/28 fractions) or dose-dense temozolomide [TMZ] (75 mg/m² daily x 21 days, q28 days, max. 12 cycles). Primary endpoint was PFS, secondary analyses included OS and impact of 1p status. Results: 477 patients were randomized ( , median FU 45.5 months). Analysis was performed after 246 progression events. Hematological toxicity grade 3 was observed in 9.4% of TMZ patients. PFS was not significantly different, median OS not reached. 1p deletion was a positive prognostic factor irrespective of treatment (p-value stratified by treatment (PFS: ;HR= % CI( )/OS: 0.002;HR= % CI ( )). Conclusions: First -line treatment with TMZ compared to RT did not improve PFS in high-risk LGG patients. Although interaction test was not significant, there was a trend for inferior PFS in patients treated by TMZ with 1p intact, while OS may be better when 1p-deleted patients receive TMZ upfront. Survival analysis requires further maturation of the data.

33 Conclusions (I) For patients with high risk grade 2 glioma (less than GTR or >40 years), RT+PCV prolongs PFS and OS compared with RT alone In patients with low risk grade 2 glioma (GTR and <40 years), postoperative radiation therapy could improve PFS in patients with unfavorable prognostic factors: Age years with GTR with preoperative tumor 4-6 cms Astrocytoma / oligoastrocytoma Tumor residual >1-2cm Bad-controlled neurological symptoms(seizures)
34 Conclusions (II) LGG in elderly patients: 8% of all LGG More aggressive than in younger ones: OS 3 and 5 yr<40% Neurotoxicity of radiotherapy increases with age and dose of Gy 1p intact (EORTC ) IMRT
35 Conclusions(III) Potential radiation associated toxicity IMRT: better sparing of normal tissue PFS tumor progression is more detrimental to cognitive function than radiotherapy?
36 Conclusions (IV) The current management of LGG is multifactorial involving the interplay of the treatment modalities. Requires further investigations into several prognostic factors including treatment responsiveness of molecular markers. Prospective studies of modern RT techniques (IMRT-IGRT) are warranted to integrate patient reported outcomes of quality of life and neurocognitive function as primary end points in clinical trials.
