Zusammenfassung
Objectives: Combined treatment approaches targeting tumor as well as other cells contributing to tumor progression may control chemorefractory malignancies. Methods: A phase II trial was initiated to analyze the activity of continuously administered pioglitazone and rofecoxib combined with low-dose chemotherapy ( capecitabine or temozolomide) in patients with high-grade gliomas ( glioblastoma or anaplastic glioma). Results: Fourteen patients were evaluable for response and toxicity. Major side effects were palmoplantar erythema, edema and motor neuropathy grade 3. Disease stabilizations lasting longer than 3 months were noted in 4 of 14 patients ( 29%). Clinical responses did not correspond to immunohistochemical staining for cyclooxygenase 2, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor- gamma and CD31. Discussion: The study demonstrates that this novel regimen is moderately active and well tolerated in patients with high-grade gliomas. As a comparably small proportion of patients responded, the regimen might only be suitable for a subset of highly selected patients. Copyright (c) 2008 S. Karger AG, Basel.
