Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Sirolimus in Subjects With Metastatic, Mismatch Repair Deficient Solid Tumors After Immunotherapy (NCT NCT04393454)

NCT ID: NCT04393454

Last Updated: 2024-07-25

Results Overview

To evaluate the efficacy of sirolimus in patients with metastatic mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment), ORR will be determined. For this study ORR will be defined as the percentage of patients who achieve either a complete response (CR = disappearance of all target tumors); or a partial response (PR = ≥30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target tumors) based on Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) following review of imaging (CT-CAP or PET-CT) data.

Measure
Sirolimus
Participants will be instructed to take 2 mg every day for 28 days (1 cycle). They will be evaluated in the oncology clinic every 2 weeks to make sure they are tolerating the medication well. Sirolimus 2 milligram (mg) tablet: Sirolimus (oral) will be started at 2 mg daily. Sirolimus dosing will be titrated to meet serum trough levels of \>8 ng/ml, assayed at 7 days after starting a new dose, by chromatography/mass spectrometry. Once adequate serum levels are met (≥8 ng/ml), the same dosing will be continued until progression of disease as evidenced by imaging, or unacceptable toxicity.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to approximately 24 weeks after achieving therapeutic sirolimus levels, up to 7 months total

Population: One patient had Stable Disease (SD), but was unable to be analyzed for ORR due to being clinical 'Progression of Disease' (POD) on study. Patient stopped study treatment due to toxicity. As such, only 5 patients were able to evaluated for ORR.

To evaluate the efficacy of sirolimus in patients with metastatic mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment), ORR will be determined. For this study ORR will be defined as the percentage of patients who achieve either a complete response (CR = disappearance of all target tumors); or a partial response (PR = ≥30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target tumors) based on Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) following review of imaging (CT-CAP or PET-CT) data.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Approximately 24 weeks after sirolimus initiation, up to approximately 7 months total

Population: Progression-free Survival (PFS) was unable to be assessed in 2 of the enrolled patients.

PFS, the duration of time from treatment initiation to progression of known metastases or new metastatic site, or death from any cause after a timeframe of 24 weeks, will be determined following treatment with sirolimus in patients with metastatic mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment). Group median number of months will be reported.

POST_HOC outcome

Timeframe: Up to approximately 24 weeks after achieving therapeutic sirolimus levels, up to 7 months total

To evaluate the efficacy of sirolimus in patients with metastatic mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment), the best OR will be determined based on RECIST criteria following review of imaging (CT-CAP or PET-CT) data. Tumor responses will be categorized based on RECIST v1.1 criteria as follows: Complete Response (CR): disappearance of all target tumors Partial Response (PR): ≥30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target tumors Progressive Disease (PD): at least 20% increase in sum of diameters of target tumor (noting smallest sum on study); absolute increase of 5mm must be demonstrated Stable Disease (SD): neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD Inevaluable/Not Evaluable (NE): No imaging taken/no measurement performed
