Summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, international,
Phase 3 study in patients with newly diagnosed H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma to assess
whether treatment with ONC201 following frontline radiotherapy will extend overall
survival and progression-free survival in this population. Eligible participants will
have histologically diagnosed H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma and have completed standard
frontline radiotherapy.

Eligibility

  1. Able to understand the study procedures and agree to participate in the study by providing written informed consent (by participant or legally authorized representative), and assent when applicable.
  2. Body weight = 10 kg at time of randomization.
  3. Histologically diagnosed H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma (new diagnosis). Detection of a missense K27M mutation in any histone H3-encoding gene detected by testing of tumor tissue (immunohistochemistry [IHC] or next-generation sequencing [NGS] in a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments [CLIA]-certified or equivalent laboratory). [Site to provide (as available): = 10 unstained formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) slides from tumor tissue.]
  4. At least one, high-quality, contrast-enhanced MRI of the brain obtained prior to starting radiotherapy for submission to sponsor's imaging vendor for central read. For participants who had a surgical resection, this scan must be post-resection; for participants who did not have a resection, this scan may be pre- or post-biopsy.
  5. At least one, high-quality, contrast-enhanced MRI of the brain obtained 2 to 6 weeks after completion of frontline radiotherapy. If unable to obtain contrast-enhanced imaging due to lack of venous access after multiple attempts, a patient may still be eligible after collection of a nonenhanced MRI of the brain. [Site to also provide all available MRIs completed prior to initiating treatment with study intervention.]
  6. Received frontline radiotherapy
  7. Initiated radiotherapy within 12 weeks from the initial diagnosis of H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma.
  8. Completed radiotherapy within 2 to 6 weeks prior to randomization
  9. Completed standard fractionated radiotherapy (eg. 54 to 60 Gy in 28 to 33 fractions given over approximately 6 weeks or hypofractionated radiotherapy (eg. 40 Gy in 15 fractions given over approximately 3 weeks).
  10. Karnofsky Performance Status or Lansky Performance Status = 70 at time of randomization.
  11. Stable or decreasing dose of corticosteroids and anti-seizure medications for 7 days prior to randomization, if applicable. Stable steroid dose is defined as = 2 mg/day increase (based on dexamethasone dose or equivalent dose of an alternative steroid).
**Clinical trials are research studies that involve people. These studies test new ways to prevent, detect, diagnose, or treat diseases. People who take part in cancer clinical trials have an opportunity to contribute to scientists’ knowledge about cancer and to help in the development of improved cancer treatments.
