Clinical Study of Concurrent Pazopanib and Radiotherapy for Non-metastatic Sarcoma Patients

NCT ID: NCT02575066

Last Updated: 2019-06-27

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: TERMINATED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 25 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2016-03-17
• Study Completion Date: 2019-03-20

Brief Summary

Radiotherapy (RT) alone is able to induce a clinically significant effect with a variable pathologic response (a pathological complete remission, pCR, defined as ≥ 95%, or ≤ 5% remaining visible tumour cells) in only about 10% of cases. A prior phase I study (PASART-1; NCT01985295) suggested that 25 x 2 Gy preoperative RT in combination with once daily 800mg oral pazopanib is feasible, while inducing tissue replacing tumor that can consist of fibrosis and necrosis in 40% of thus treated patients.

During this study, the interim analysis showed that the combination treatment of preoperative radiation with orally pazopanib is more effective than was anticipated. For this reason, the pazopanib dose of 800 mg once daily is maintained but the RT dose is reduced to 18x2Gy instead of 25x2Gy. Predominant aim of this RT dose reduction is lowering the wound complication risk after preoperative radiotherapy.

Detailed Description

Patients of the first part of the study received radiotherapy (25x2Gy) and pazopanib (QD 800 mg).

Patients of the second part of the study received/ will receive radiotherapy (18x2Gy) and pazopanib (QD 800 mg).

Conditions

Exclusion Criteria

• Chemotherapy or radiation therapy within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication
• Biological therapy or treatment with an investigational agent within 28 days or five half-lives, whichever is longer prior to the first dose of study medication
• Prohibited medications listed in the protocol for 14 days or five half-lives of a drug (whichever is longer) prior to visit 1 and for the duration of the study
• Known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction or idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically related to pazopanib
• Any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; those conditions should be discussed with the patient before registration in the trial
