1 January EORTC (RTOG 0834 Endorsed) Protocol Status: Opened: July 22, 2009 Title: Phase III Trial on Concurrent and Adjuvant Temozolomide Chemotherapy in Non-1P/19Q Deleted Anaplastic Glioma: The CATNON Intergroup Trial Patient Population: Patients must have histologically confirmed newly diagnosed anaplastic oligodendroglioma, anaplastic oligoastrocytoma or anaplastic astrocytoma and absence of combined 1p/19q loss. Objectives: Schema: Primary: To assess whether concurrent radiotherapy with daily temozolomide chemotherapy improves overall survival as compared to no daily temozolomide in patients with non-1p/19q deleted anaplastic glioma. To assess whether adjuvant temozolomide chemotherapy improves survival as compared to no adjuvant temozolomide chemotherapy in patients with non-1p/19q deleted anaplastic glioma. Secondary: To assess whether concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide treatment prolongs progression free survival and neurological deterioration free survival in patients with non-1p/19q deleted anaplastic glioma. To assess the safety of concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide in patients with non-1p/19q deleted anaplastic glioma, including late effects on cognition. To assess the impact of concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide treatment on the quality of life in patients with non-1p/19q deleted anaplastic glioma. North American institutions should refer to the appropriate Group Specific Appendix on the CTSU menu for supplemental enrollment logistics. Institution must choose to evaluate 1p/19q LOH locally or use central facility. After registration, all material is centrally reviewed for MGMT methylation status. * Investigators can t randomize a patient: If the central facility is used: before the histological diagnosis, diagnosis of no combined 1p/19q LOH has been centrally confirmed and the MGMT methylation status (methylated/unmethylated or indeterminate) has been communicated by the EORTC Data Centre. The randomization is based on the central histological and 1p/19q LOH evaluation. If the local assessment is used: before the MGMTmethylation status (methylated/unmethylated or indeterminate) has been communicated by the EORTC Data Centre. The randomization is based on the local histological and 1p/19q LOH evaluation.

Jaeckle Study Chairman: Martin van den Bent I. Summary: This EORTC study is a CATNON Intergroup Trial. This study activated in Dec, 2007, with the target accrual of 748 patients. RTOG endorsed this study and opened to accrual on July 22, 2009 in North America. As of October 14, 2010, a total of 318 patients enrolled to this study. Section II gives detailed accrual information. Section III presents patient characteristics information. The adverse information is presented in the Section IV.
