Active Accrual, Protocols Recruiting New Patients

Title:
A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled, Multi-Institutional, Phase II.5 Study of AZDO53O, a Selective Src Kinase Inhibitor, in Patients with Recurrent Osteosarcoma Localized to the Lung
Number:
09-C-0104
Summary:
Background:

- Standard therapy for osteosarcoma is a combination of chemotherapy and surgery to remove localized tumor nodules. However, osteosarcoma will recur in about 33 percent of patients who receive the standard treatment.

- AZD0530 is an experimental drug treatment for cancer that works by inhibiting a protein known as Src, which is very common in patients with osteosarcoma. Some adult patients with cancer who received AZD0530 had a slowing of their tumor growth.

Objectives:

- To determine if the addition of AZD0530 decreases the chance of tumor recurrence and increases the rate of patient survival.

- To see if AZD0530 reduces the amount of Src present in tumor samples.

- To study tumor samples and genetic information to gain a better understanding of why osteosarcoma recurs in some patients.

Eligibility:

- Patients between 15 and 75 years of age with osteosarcoma in the lung, who have had successful surgery to remove osteosarcoma tumor nodules.

Design:

- Treatment with either AZD0530 or placebo, to begin 6 weeks after successful surgery.

-Two tablets taken daily, by mouth, for a maximum of 1 year.

-Study researchers may lower the dose if patients experience side effects from the drug. Patients will be removed from the study if side effects continue after two dose reductions.

-Patients will be removed from the study if tumors recur during the treatment cycle.

- Evaluations during the treatment period:

-Physical examinations, including vital signs and body weight checks, and blood tests.

-Analysis of tumor and blood samples to study genetic factors.

-Disease evaluation with CT scans.

-Other tests or examinations recommended by study doctors.

- Post-treatment evaluations:

-End-of-study visit for physical examination, disease assessment, and electrocardiogram.

-Additional monitoring by researchers for up to 4 years.

Type: Participants currently recruited/enrolled
Gender: Male & Female
Referral Letter Required: No
Population Exclusion(s): None

Eligibility Criteria:
INCLUSION CRITERIA:

Patients who have recurrence of osteosarcoma, localized to the lungs, who have had complete surgical removal of all lung nodules, or who are deemed fully resectable, are eligible for enrollment.

Other inclusion criteria are as follows:

a. Histological diagnosis of osteosarcoma of the recurrent sample (histology types must be osteoblastic, chondroblastic, fibroblastic or telangiectatic)

b. Recurrence of osteosarcoma in the lung following standard chemotherapy including: adriamycin, cisplatin, ifosphamide and methotrexate (or provide justification why any of these agents were not received)

c. Age greater than or equal to 15 and less than 75 years of age

d. Weight greater than 34 kg

e. ECOG performance score of 0, 1 or 2 (0 equals asymptomatic, 1 equals symptomatic but fully ambulatory, 2 equals symptomatic in bed less than 50% of the day)

f. Adequate bone marrow function (ANC greater than or equal to 1500/uL, Hb greater than or equal to 9.0 g/dL, platelets greater than or equal to 100,000IuL)

g. Adequate renal function (serum creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 or a creatinine clearance greater than or equal to 50 mL/min/l.73m(2)

h. Adequate hepatic function (ALT/AST less than or equal to 2.5 X normal, total bilirubin less than or equal to 2 mgldl with the exception of patients with Gilbert's syndrome)

i. Adequate cardiac function (ECHO or MUGA with shortening fraction greater than or equal to 27% or ejection fraction greater than or equal to 45%) and (EKG with QTc less than or equal to 480 msec)

j. Negative pregnancy test for women of childbearing potential, less than or equal to 7 days prior to enrollment, and the willingness to use an acceptable method of contraception during participation in the study and for 3 months after the last dose

k. Randomization must occur less than or equal to 6 weeks after complete surgical resection of all tumor nodules

l. Informed consent: all patients, or their legal guardian if the patient is less than 18 years of age, must sign a document of informed consent indicating their awareness of the investigational nature and the risks of this study

EXCLUSION CRITERIA:

a. Presence of metastatic disease in other locations in addition to the lung

b. Disruption of the lung pleura by tumor

c. Paget's disease

d. Current use, or previous use within the specified time period, of medications that are potent inducers, inhibitors or substrates of CYP3A4

e. Known hypersensitivity to other Src/Abl non-receptor kinase inhibitors

f. Any evidence of interstitial lung disease (bilateral, diffuse, parenchymal lung disease)

g. Any concurrent condition which in the investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the trial or which would jeopardize compliance with the protocol. These include conditions that are severe and/or inadequately uncontrolled, such as severe or worsening hepatic, respiratory and cardiac impairment.

h. Myocardial infarction within one year prior to study entry

i. Bleeding diathesis, resulting in symptomatic bleeding

j. Pregnant women or breast-feeding or nursing women

k. Any agent (chemotherapy, biological or investigational) administered 28 days prior to enrollment

1. Unresolved toxicity greater than or equal to CTCAEv3 grade 2 (except alopecia) from previous agents

The reasoning for the above criteria is that patients who meet exclusion criteria a-c have an extremely poor five-year survival rate. Since some patients will meet one of the above criteria, it is possible that a true survival advantage with adjuvant AZDO53O treatment may go undetected if the above patients are included.
