Action Letter and Study Closure

RTOG 0227, "Phase I/II Study of Pre-Irradiation Chemotherapy With Methotrexate, Rituximab, and Temozolomide and Post-Irradiation Temozolomide for Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma"

RTOG has received an ACTION LETTER from NCI/NIH for rituximab (NSC 687451, IND 7028).

Accrual of new patients to RTOG 0227 is SUSPENDED per NCI guidelines.

Because permanent closure to this study was planned for June 25, as broadcast on June 11, the study will instead permanently close to accrual as of 5pm EST, Thursday, June 17, 2010.

Patients currently on study may continue on study provided they are informed of the new risks identified as part of the CAEPR update in the Action Letter.

Per CTEP's policy for trials with a CTEP status of "Closed to Accrual," RTOG will not issue an amendment to this protocol for site IRB approval. However, all sites should follow local IRB or Operations Office procedures and requirements.

Please notify your affiliates that are not on e-mail.

SUBJECT: RTOG 0227, Amended

Amended
RTOG 0227, "Phase I/II Study of Pre-Irradiation Chemotherapy With Methotrexate, Rituximab, and Temozolomide and Post-Irradiation Temozolomide for Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma," Amendment 7:

  • As mandated by CTEP, CTC v. 2.0 was replaced with CTEP's Active Version CTCAE (v. 4.0).
    NOTE: Institutions will continue to submit patient data via the appropriate study case report forms. For adverse event reporting via AdEERS, sites will utilize CTEP's Active Version CTCAE (v. 4.0).
  • Section 3.1.6 and Eligibility Checklist: Age ? 18 was added because it was inadvertently omitted.
  • Appendix I/Sample Consent: "Annually for five years was corrected to annually."

Please see the complete Summary of Changes at http://www.rtog.org/members/protocols/0227/summary_changes.html

You may download a copy of the protocol for IRB review by accessing the RTOG web site at http://www.rtog.org/members/protocols/0227/0227.pdf

NCI policy requires that the "Version Date" on the protocol title page reflect the date the amendment was submitted by RTOG to NCI; for clarity, the broadcast date is provided in parentheses.

Per CTMB Guidelines, amendments must be submitted and approved by local IRBs within 90 days. If the amendment involves changes to the risks section of the consent, RTOG recommends re-consenting patients on this trial; however, your local IRB will have the final authority. Sites must submit IRB approval for the amendment to CTSU.

SUBJECT: IMPORTANT NEW RTOG DRUG ACCOUNTABILITY PROCEDURE

RTOG will now require study-specific drug accountability recording forms (DARFs) for pharmaceutical-supplied studies. Study specific DARFs will be posted on the RTOG web site with the study forms, as well as in the initial broadcast for each protocol requiring drug review.

Starting January 2007 these forms will be reviewed as part of the RTOG audit, but will not be part of the final CTMB audit score. No deficiencies will be cited for any documentation inaccuracies prior to January 2007. A count of these pharmaceutical-supplied drugs will be required at the audit, hence a pharmacy visit will need to be scheduled as part of the audit.

We are starting this new initiative with the studies utilizing temozolomide. Please note the following:

RTOG utilizes temozolomide in several studies with a variety of distribution mechanisms. It is important to read each protocol carefully in order to obtain drug from the appropriate distributor in time for dispensing the drug to patients correctly. Drug supplies can not be shared across studies as formulations may differ slightly.

The following table will illustrate the study differences:

9813 Biologics By patient
0525 Biologics By patient
0227 IVS Starter pack*
0320 IVS Starter pack*
0424 IVS Starter pack*


*Each patient is sent a starter pack with capsules of various strengths appropriate for their first dose cycle. For subsequent cycles, sites may mix and match from their supply on hand in order to give patients the best combination of capsules for their prescribed dose.

Patients on studies meant to receive drug free of charge must not receive commercial drug and be charged for it. All other brain tumor studies with temozolomide as part of the treatment plan use commercially available product and the patient's insurance should be billed for the cost.

Please watch for other pharmaceutical supplied study related broadcasts in the near future- thank you!

SUBJECT: RTOG STUDY 0227: Shortage of preservative-free methotrexate

At this time (and possibly for the next several months) there is an extreme shortage of preservative-free methotrexate; most of the major wholesalers in the US and Canada have none in stock.

There are two manufacturers with a very limited stock that is being released on an as-need basis. Investigators who enroll patients into RTOG Study 0227 should remind their pharmacists of the shortage and suggest they call the manufacturers' customer service department to discuss purchasing a supply of methotrexate directly or via drop-shipment instead of trying to order MTX through their local wholesalers.

The manufacturers are:
Mayne Pharmaceuticals: 1-888-606-2245
Bedford Labs: 1-800-521-5169

A major change to this protocol concerns the supply of temozolomide, which will now be distributed free to sites through a third party supplier. This change requires the use of a Study Agent Shipment Form (Appendix V). For those institutions who have patients already receiving commercially supplied temozolomide, the Study Agent Shipment Form must be submitted as soon as possible for patients to begin receiving free temozolomide. For a complete description of this modification as well as other changes, please see the Summary of Changes for both the amendment and update at
http://www.rtog.org/members/protocols/0227/summary_changes.html

NCI policy requires that the "Version Date" on the protocol title page reflect the date the amendment was submitted by RTOG to NCI; for clarity, the broadcast date is provided in parentheses. NOTE: The update is an editorial/administrative change to the protocol. NCI requires that this change be documented on the protocol title page as “Update Date,” not as an amendment.

Per CTMB Guidelines, amendments must be submitted and approved by local IRBs within 90 days. Expedited review is allowed; however, site IRB requirements take precedence.

SUBJECT: RTOG 0227- Notice to Investigators Amendment Requirement Withdrawn (RITUXIMB)

Important Updated information regarding a previous broadcast for RITUXIMAB, which requires patient notification:

The recent Broadcast "Notice to Investigators-Amendment Requested for Rituximab", (copy attached) which was sent on 12/20/04 has been clarified. A determination was made by the NCI that RTOG 0227 does not require a protocol amendment because patients with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia and HIV infections are not part of the patient population for this study. RTOG advises; however, notifying all patients participating in this study of these findings.

- Rituximab Notice Letter [DOC]

An amendment to the protocol are not required at this time.

Please send the report(s) to your institutional IRB. A copy also should be retained in your protocol file.
