Vorasidenib for the treatment of IDH-mutated astrocytoma after standard radiochemotherapy
Summary description of the study
Gliomas are the most common brain tumors in adults. About 25% show an IDH mutation that affects tumor growth. This includes IDH-mutated astrocytomas, which typically occur in adults in their thirties or forties. Standard treatments consist of surgery followed by monitoring or a combination of radiation and chemotherapy. Nevertheless, tumors often recur, making new treatment options necessary. This study investigates whether Vorasidenib – a drug that specifically inhibits IDH mutations – can prevent or delay tumor recurrence or progression after surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. The primary goal is to extend progression-free survival while preserving brain function, seizure control, quality of life, and overall survival. 468 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Vorasidenib or a placebo. The treatment will be administered as a daily tablet for up to 5 years, accompanied by regular blood tests, MRI scans, and quality of life questionnaires. Follow-up visits will occur afterward. The total study duration is approximately 10.5 years. Why is this important? Currently, there is no further standard treatment after radiation and chemotherapy, although tumors often recur. If the study shows positive results, Vorasidenib could become a new treatment option that extends survival while also protecting brain function and quality of life.

Intervention under investigation
In this Phase III study, the primary goal is to demonstrate that maintenance therapy with Vorasidenib, administered after completion of first-line chemotherapy and radiation therapy, improves progression-free survival compared to placebo. This study will be conducted in patients with an astrocytoma that has an isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation and is classified as grade 2 or 3.

Disease under investigation
IDH-mutated astrocytomas of grade 2 or 3
(BASEC)
• Integrated diagnosis of IDH-mutated astrocytoma, CNS5, WHO grade 2 or 3, depending on local assessment, with documented IDH1 or IDH2 mutation based on local testing of tumor tissue. • At least 1 prior surgery for glioma. • Completion of standard first-line radiation therapy (at least 50.4 Gy, photons or protons allowed), followed by adjuvant SoC chemotherapy (i.e., either 4–12 cycles of Temozolomide or 2–6 cycles of PCV (Procarbazine, Lomustine, and Vincristine)). (BASEC)
Exclusion criteria
• Presence of a 1p19q co-deletion, according to local assessment. • Tumor recurrence or progression according to RANO 2.0 criteria between the first day of radiation therapy and enrollment in the study according to local assessment. • Any prior or concurrent malignant disease whose natural history or treatment could affect the assessment of safety or efficacy of the trial regimen.
