Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy combined with apatinib mesylate in the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma in children.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is a Interventional study. The target group was 3-18 years old, and the pathological stage was group II-IV recurrence or distant metastasis. A total of 48 patients were enrolled in this study. The treatment was radiotherapy combined with apatinib. The main outcome measures were ORR, DCR , OS , quality of life and drug safety. The main safety indicators were vital signs, laboratory indicators, adverse events (AE), and severe adverse events (SAE). This study is expected to be enrolled for 6 months.

Intervention Model

SEQUENTIAL

Simons two-stage design method requires the enrollment of 13 patients in the first stage. If more than 7 patients fail to reach the expected end point, the first stage fails and the patients do not need to enter the second stage. A total of 48 patients were enrolled. If more than 30 patients did not reach the expected end point, the overall trial failed.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Radiotherapy plus apatinib mesylate

All eligible patients signed informed consent. Three-dimensional conformal intensity modulation (IMRT) technique was used to treat the patients with radiation doses 45 Gy - 54 Gy. All patients took apatinib mesylate tablets 250 mg QD orally from 1 week before radiotherapy to the whole radiotherapy period. They were required to take apatinib mesylate tablets with warm boiling water half an hour after meal. The daily medication time should be as consistent as possible.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Apatinib mesylate tablets

Intervention Type DRUG

Apatinib mesylate tablets were orally administered 250 mg QD from 1 week before radiotherapy to the whole radiotherapy period. (Appatinib is no longer used after radiotherapy)

Three-dimensional conformal intensity modulation

Intervention Type RADIATION

Three-dimensional conformal intensity modulation (IMRT) technique was used for post-operative radiotherapy. The radiation dose was 45-54 Gy.
