Cyclophosphamide and Sirolimus for the Treatment of Metastatic, RAI-refractory, Differentiated Thyroid Cancer
- Conditions
- Metastatic Thyroid Cancer
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT03099356
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center
- Brief Summary
This study will be a non-randomized pilot trial using Cyclophosphamide and Sirolimus for the treatment of metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer. Patients will be treated with Sirolimus 4 mg, PO, days 1-28 as well as Cyclophosphamide 100 mg, PO, days 1-5 and 15-19. Cycle length will be 28 days. Patients will be monitored closely for toxicity and undergo imaging to evaluate efficacy once every 2 cycles.

- 19
- Histologically documented differentiated thyroid cancer with or without metastases, not amenable to curative treatment; or the patient has documented refusal of curative treatment
- Measurable disease (>10 mm) and have progression of disease based on RECIST criteria. Previously irradiated tumor lesions are not considered measurable unless they have progressed since radiation.

- Adequate organ and marrow function
- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 3 days prior to treatment
- Signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the patient (or legally acceptable representative) has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the trial prior to enrollment

- A serious uncontrolled medical disorder or active infection that would impair their ability to receive study treatment
- Patients with known sensitivities to either cyclophosphamide and/or sirolimus
- Patients with known urinary outflow obstruction

Group Intervention Description Cyclophosphamide and Sirolimus Cyclophosphamide Sirolimus 4 mg, PO, days 1-28 as well as Cyclophosphamide 100 mg, PO, days 1-5 and 15-19 Cyclophosphamide and Sirolimus Sirolimus Sirolimus 4 mg, PO, days 1-28 as well as Cyclophosphamide 100 mg, PO, days 1-5 and 15-19
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of patients that respond to treatment Patients will be followed for response until progression or up to 2 Years The primary measure of efficacy will be the overall response rate (ORR) which is defined as those achieving either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). Partial response is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions. Complete response is defined as Disappearance of all target lesions, determined by two separate observations conducted not less than 4 weeks apart (there can be no appearance of new lesions) and the disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The number of patients that experience toxicity Patients are followed for toxicity up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug The number of patients that experience toxicity by type will be reported.
Median overall survival time Patients will be followed until death or up to 2 years The median duration of time from start of treatment until death
Median progression free survival time Patients will be followed for response until progression or up to 2 Years The median duration of time from start of treatment until progression. Progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD (longest diameter) of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started, or the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
