Trial Information

Phase II Study of Temozolomide in Unresectable or Metastatic Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST)


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the complete and partial response (confirmed and unconfirmed) in patients
with unresectable or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors treated with
temozolomide.

- Determine the qualitative or quantitative toxic effects of this regimen in these
patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral temozolomide once daily on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks
in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving a
confirmed complete response (CR) receive 2 additional courses after a confirmed CR.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 2 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 20-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 13-27
months.
