Primary Outcome(s)

Primary end point(s): Phase II part – Efficacy assessment
PFS computed as the time interval between the date of study entry and the date of tumor progression or death (whatever the cause of death). The

Secondary Objective: 1. To measure the impact of the VINILO combination compared to vinblastine alone, in terms of tumor response, functionnal status (visual acuity…), progression-free survival time ratio (PFS2/PFS1-ratio), and overall survival (OS)
2. To describe and compare, on the whole duration of treatment, the acute toxicity related to the VINILO combination with that of vinblastine alone; and to compare the long-term effects of both regimens
3. To describe the feasibility of the treatment and the compliance
4. To provide pharmacokinetics data on both drugs when given in combination
5. To identify the predictive value of early functional MRI changes
6. To assess the inter-observers agreement of radiologic response assessment

Main Objective: Phase II part: to evaluate the efficacy of vinblastine in combination with nilotinib (VINILO) at the RD, as compared to vinblastine alone, in terms of progression-free survival, in children, adolescents, and young adults with refractory or recurrent low grade glioma and in NF1 patients with low grade glioma at diagnosis.

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: PFS computed as the time interval between the date of study entry and the date of tumor progression or death (whatever the cause of death).

Secondary Outcome(s)

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: over the whole study duration

Secondary end point(s): 1) Safety monitoring during the treatment
Clinical and laboratory toxicities / symptoms will be graded according to NCI-CTCAE v4.0 over the whole treatment duration
2) Efficacy criteria
Tumor response will be based on two-dimension measurement and to RANO Criteria. All tumor reduction >25% (CR or PR or MR) will be considered as success.
Growth modulation index or progression-free survival time ratio (PFS2/PFS1-ratio), defined as the ratio of a patient’s progression-free survival time from start of study treatment (VINILO or Vinblastine alone), PFS2, relative to the progression-free survival time observed from the patient’s most recent prior anticancer treatment, PFS1, which serves as the patient-specific historical control value.
Modification of functionnal status. In particular, for optic pathway glioma, quantitative assessment of visual acuity and qualitative changes in visual field will be assessed.
Overall survival computed from the date of study entry to the date of death, from any cause.
3) Dose intensity of each drug computed on the whole treatment duration and per month. Duration of treatment and reasons for the end of treatment.
4) Pharmacokinetics dosage of both drugs (for 30 patients of each arm of the phase II part)
5) Functional MRI (perfusion sequence). This dynamic imaging technique will be performed with contrast after 1 month of treatment
6) Tumor biomarkers will be studied on paraffin tumor samples
7) Pharmacogenetic biomarker (enzyme polymorphism)
8) Long-term follow-up: height, weight, pubertal growth, phospho-calcic evaluation and cardiac function
