Observation or Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Grade II Meningioma That Has Been Completely Removed by Surgery
clinicaltrials@northshore.org
ALL
18 years and over
PHASE3
NCT03180268
Inclusion Criteria:
* PRIOR TO STEP 1 REGISTRATION:
* The patient must have a newly diagnosed unifocal intracranial meningioma, gross totally resected, and histologically confirmed as WHO grade II based upon pathology findings at the enrolling institution. WHO grade will be assigned according to WHO 2016 criteria
* Gross total resection (GTR) will be interpreted as modified Simpson grade 1-3 without gross residual dural-based or extradural tumor. GTR must be confirmed both by modified Simpson grade and by post-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings. The modified Simpson grade can be inferred from the operative report (surgeon does not need to explicitly describe the Simpson grade for the purposes of eligibility)
* Step 1 registration must occur within 180 days of the initial surgery; this will provide sufficient time for post-operative imaging confirmation of resection extent after resolution of operative changes. Moreover, it will permit additional surgery if needed to achieve a GTR. Within this 180 day interval, a second surgery is permitted in order to achieve GTR, but even with a second surgery, Step 1 registration must occur within 180 days of the initial resection
* GTR must be confirmed on post-operative imaging following the most recent surgery. For protocol enrollment, the assessment of GTR will be made at each site. However, submission of both pre-operative and post-operative MRIs is required for patients. If a second surgery is performed, submission of post-operative MRI is required and pre-operative MRI is required only if obtained. All sequences obtained in the pre- and post-operative MR imaging are to be submitted to National Radiology Group (NRG) Oncology for study registration. The post-operative MRI must be completed within sufficient time to permit step 1 registration within 180 days of the initial resection. These same conditions apply in the setting of a second surgical procedure, although if a second surgery is completed, step 1 registration must still occur with 180 days of initial surgery.

* Participants may not have had radiation to the lung fields within four weeks (28 days) of starting treatment. For patients receiving palliative radiation to thoracic vertebrae, ribs or other sites where the radiation field includes the lungs, radiation must be completed at least two weeks before starting treatment. For all palliative radiation to all other sites, at least 7 days must have elapsed prior to starting treatment. At least six months (180 days) must have elapsed prior to starting treatment for radiation given with curative intent. Palliative radiotherapy to control symptoms (including gamma knife technique) is permitted. For stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to central nervous system (CNS) lesions, osimertinib can be held on the day of radiation only. For palliative radiotherapy (RT) to other sites of disease outside of the thorax osimertinib (osi) should be held for a minimum of 3 days before radiation and 3 days after RT is completed, but the duration of washout can be adjusted at the investigator's discretion with the approval of the study principal investigator (PI). For thoracic radiation, a 7-10 day washout period before the procedure and one week period after procedure before restarting osimertinib is advised to minimize the risk of pneumonitis. All radiotherapy related toxicities should be managed and ideally resolved before restarting osimertinib. Investigators should consider the radiotherapy when assessing causality if there are any localized adverse events (AEs) following the procedure
* Participants may not have clinically symptomatic brain metastases, leptomeningeal disease, or spinal cord compression. Patients may be on a stable dose of corticosteroids to control brain metastases if they have been on a stable dose for two weeks (14 days) prior to study treatment and are clinically asymptomatic

* Participants may not have uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
* Patients must have no history of hypersensitivity active or inactive excipients of osimertinib (AZD9291) or drugs with a similar chemical structure or class to osimertinib (AZD9291)
* Patients must not currently be receiving (or unable to stop use prior to receiving the first dose of study treatment) medications or herbal supplements known to be potent inducers of CYP3A4 (at least 3 week prior). All patients must try to avoid concomitant use of any medications, herbal supplements and/or ingestion of foods with known inducer effects on CYP3A4
* If medically feasible, patients taking regular medication, with the exception of potent inducers of CYP3A4, should be maintained on it throughout the study period. Patients taking concomitant medications whose disposition is dependent upon breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) or P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and which have a narrow therapeutic index should be closely monitored for signs of changed tolerability as a result of increased exposure of the concomitant medication whilst receiving osimertinib (AZD9291)
* NOTE: Use of St John's wort is a contra-indication for osimertinib (AZD9291) use
* If applicable, it is recommended that the starting and maintenance dose of rosuvastatin (due to BCRP inhibition by AZD9291 \[osimertinib\]) should be as low as possible and should be guided by the statin label. Monitoring of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels is advised. If the subject experiences any potentially relevant adverse events suggestive of muscle toxicity including unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness, particularly if accompanied by malaise or fever, the statin should be stopped, creatine kinase (CK) levels should be checked, and any appropriate further management should be taken
* Subjects taking warfarin should be monitored regularly for changes in prothrombin time or international normalized ratio (INR)

All females of childbearing potential must have a blood test or urine study within 2 weeks prior to registration to rule out pregnancy. A female of childbearing potential is any woman, regardless of sexual orientation or whether they have undergone tubal ligation, who meets the following criteria: 1) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or 2) has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months)
* Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) and sexually active males must use an accepted and effective method of contraception while receiving protocol treatment or abstain from sexual intercourse for the duration of their participation in the study. WOCBP must use birth control for two weeks prior to the start of the treatment and continue for 6 weeks after the last dose of the study drug. Sexually active male patients must use effective contraception from day 1 of treatment and continue for 4 months after the last dose of the study drug
* Other anticancer agents and investigational agents should not be given while the subject is on study treatment
* Supportive care and other medications that are considered necessary for the subject's wellbeing may be given at the discretion of the investigator
* A guidance regarding potential interactions with concomitant medications is provided PROCEDURE: Biospecimen Collection, PROCEDURE: Computed Tomography with Contrast, PROCEDURE: Echocardiography Test, PROCEDURE: Magnetic Resonance Imaging, PROCEDURE: Multigated Acquisition Scan, DRUG: Osimertinib

Inclusion Criteria:
SCREENING PRIOR TO INITIATING CHEMOTHERAPY
Patient must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
The diagnosis of invasive adenocarcinoma of the breast must have been made by core needle
biopsy.
The primary breast tumor must be palpable and measure greater than or equal 2.0 cm on
physical exam.
The regional lymph nodes can be cN0, cN1, or cN2a.
Histological grade II or III tumor.
Ipsilateral axillary lymph nodes must be evaluated by imaging (mammogram, ultrasound,
and/or MRI) within 6 weeks prior to initiating chemotherapy. If suspicious or abnormal, FNA
or core biopsy is recommended, also within 6 weeks prior to initiating chemotherapy.
Findings of these evaluations will be used to determine the nodal status prior to
initiating chemotherapy.
• Nodal status - negative: Imaging of the axilla is negative; Imaging is suspicious or abnormal but the FNA or core biopsy of the questionable node(s) on imaging is negative;
• Nodal status - positive: FNA or core biopsy of the node(s) is cytologically or histologically suspicious or positive. Imaging is suspicious or abnormal but FNA or core biopsy was not performed. Tumor specimen obtained at the time of diagnosis must have ER and progesterone receptor (PgR) analysis assessed by current ASCO/CAP Guidelines. Patients are eligible with either hormone receptor-positive or hormone receptor-negative tumors. Tumor specimen obtained at the time of diagnosis must have been determined to be HER2-negative as follows:
• Immunohistochemistry (IHC) 0-1+; or
• IHC 2+ and in situ hybridization (ISH) non-amplified with a ratio of HER2 to chromosome enumeration probe 17 (CEP17) less than 2.0, and if reported, average HER2 gene copy number less than 4 signals/cells; or
• ISH non-amplified with a ratio of HER2 to CEP17 less than 2.0, and if reported, average HER2 gene copy number less than 4 signals/cells. Blood counts performed within 6 weeks prior to initiating chemotherapy must meet the following criteria:
• absolute neutrophil count (ANC) must be greater than or equal 1200/mm3;
• platelet count must be greater than or equal 100,000/mm3; and
• hemoglobin must be greater than or equal 10 g/dL. The following criteria for evidence of adequate hepatic function performed within 6 weeks prior to initiating chemotherapy must be met:

• alkaline phosphatase must be less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN for the lab; and
• aspartate aminotransferase (AST) must be less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN for the lab.
• Alkaline phosphatase and AST may not both be greater than the ULN. For example, if the alkaline phosphatase is greater than the ULN but less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN, the AST must be less than or equal to the ULN. If the AST is greater than the ULN but less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN, the alkaline phosphatase must be less than or equal to ULN. Note: If alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is performed instead of AST (per institution's standard practice), the ALT value must be less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN; if both were performed, the AST must be less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN. Patients with AST or alkaline phosphatase greater than ULN are eligible for inclusion in the study if liver imaging (CT, MRI, PET-CT, or PET scan) performed within 6 weeks prior to initiating chemotherapy does not demonstrate metastatic disease and the requirements in next criteria are met. Patients with alkaline phosphatase that is greater than ULN but less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN or unexplained bone pain are eligible for inclusion in the study if a bone scan, PET-CT scan, or positron emission tomography (PET) scan performed within 6 weeks prior to initiating chemotherapy does not demonstrate metastatic disease. Serum creatinine performed within 6 weeks prior to initiating chemotherapy must be less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN for the lab.

ALL
18 years and over
PHASE2
NCT03851445
• 1 Registration Step 0:
• Patients who need the fresh biopsy must also submit whole blood for ctDNA testing (see Section 15.3). These patients must be registered to Step 0 to obtain a patient ID number for the submission. Patients registered to Step 0 are not registered to the LUNGMAP protocol. To participate in LUNGMAP, patients must be registered to Step 1 after evaluation of patient eligibility, including tumor tissue adequacy, per protocol Section 5.1, Step 1. Patients registered at Step 0 must use the same SWOG patient ID for registration at Step 1. Step 1:
• Patients must have pathologically proven non-small cell lung cancer (all histologic types) confirmed by tumor biopsy and/or fine-needle aspiration. Disease must be Stage IV as defined in Section 4.0, or recurrent. The primary diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer should be established using the current WHO/IASLC-classification of Thoracic Malignancies. All histologies, including mixed, are allowed.
• Patients must either be eligible to be screened at progression on prior treatment or to be pre-screened prior to progression on current treatment. These criteria are:
• Screening at progression on prior treatment: To be eligible for screening at progression, patients must have received at least one line of systemic therapy for any stage of disease (Stages I-IV) and must have progressed during or following their most recent line of therapy. * For patients whose prior systemic therapy was for Stage I-III disease only (i.e. patient has not received any treatment for Stage IV or recurrent disease), disease progression on platinum-based chemotherapy must have occurred within one year from the last date that patient received that therapy. For patients treated with consolidation anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapy for Stage III disease, disease progression on consolidation anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapy must have occurred within one year from the date or initiation of such therapy. * For patients whose prior therapy was for Stage IV or recurrent disease, the patient must have received at least one line of a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen or anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy, alone or in combination (e.g. Nivolumab or Pembrolizumab).
• Pre-Screening prior to progression on current treatment: To be eligible for pre-screening, current treatment must be for Stage IV or recurrent disease and patient must have received at least one dose of the current regimen. Patients must have previously received or currently be receiving a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen or anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy, alone or in combination (e.g. Nivolumab or Pembrolizumab). Patients on first-line treatment are eligible upon receiving Cycle 1, Day 1 infusion. Note: Patients will not receive their sub-study assignment until they progress and the LUNGMAP Notice of Progression is submitted.
• Patients must have adequate tumor tissue available, defined as ≥ 20% tumor cells and ≥ 0.2 mm3 tumor volume. * The local interpreting pathologist must review the specimen. * The pathologist must sign the LUNGMAP Local Pathology Review Form confirming tissue adequacy prior to Step 1 registration. Patients must agree to have this tissue submitted to Foundation Medicine for common broad platform CLIA biomarker profiling, PD-L1, and c-MET IHC (see Section 15.2). If archival tumor material is exhausted, then a new fresh tumor biopsy that is formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) must be obtained. Patients who need the fresh biopsy must also submit whole peripheral blood for ctDNA testing. A tumor block or FFPE slides 4-5 microns thick must be submitted. Bone biopsies are not allowed. If FFPE slides are to be submitted, at least 12 unstained slides plus an H\&E stained slide, or 13 unstained slides must be submitted. However, it is strongly recommended that 20 FFPE slides be submitted. Note: Previous next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) will be repeated if done outside this study for sub-study assignment. Patients must agree to have any tissue that remains after testing retained for the use of sub-study Translational Medicine (TM) studies at the time of consent the patient is enrolled in.
• Patients with known EGFR sensitizing mutations, EGFR T790M mutation, ALK gene fusion, ROS 1 gene rearrangement, or BRAF V600E mutation are not eligible unless they have progressed following all standard of care targeted therapy. EGFR/ALK/ROS/BRAF testing is not required prior to Step 1 registration, as it is included in the Foundation One testing for screening/pre-screening.
• Patients must have Zubrod performance status 0-1 (see Section 10.2) documented within 28 days prior to Step 1 registration.
• Patients must be ≥ 18 years of age.
• Patients must also be offered participation in banking for future use of specimens as described in Section 15.0.
• Patients must be willing to provide prior smoking history as required on the LUNGMAP Onstudy Form.
• As a part of the OPEN registration process (see Section 13.4 for OPEN access instructions) the treating institution's identity is provided in order to ensure that the current (within 365 days) date of institutional review board approval for this study has been entered in the system.
• Patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must sign and give written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines.
• U.S. patients who can complete the survey and the interview by telephone or email in English must be offered participation in the S1400GEN Survey Ancillary Study if local institution's policies allow participants to receive the Amazon gift card (see Sections 15.7 and 18.5). Patients at institutions that cannot offer the survey must still participate in the main study.
