简要总结
In this phase III open label, controlled clinical trial patients with unresectable or metastatic soft-tissue sarcoma after failure of anthracycline-containing first line therapy or with contraindications to these drugs and CD13 positivity in central histology (grade >/= 1+) are treated to evaluate whether tTF-NGR in combination with standard trabectedin chemotherapy prolongs progression-free survival (according to iRECIST), as compared with trabectedin alone. Further objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of tTF-NGR in combination with standard trabectedin chemotherapy with respect to the response rate and overall survival as well as to assess the safety profile of tTF-NGR combined with trabectedin. Before the randomized phase III part of the study, there was a safety run-in part. The final dose of tTF-NGR established as safe in this safety run-in part is 0.5 mg/m2 per day for 2 consecutive days following each trabectedin infusion and is used for the randomized (parallel 1:1; Arm 1: standard trabectedin, Arm 2: standard trabectedin plus tTF-NGR) phase III part of this trail. . Further dose modification for tTF-NGR is possible.
详细描述
Rationale: tTF-NGR targets CD13 present in tumor-associated vasculature and on tumor cells of the majority of STS tissue samples examined; preclinical data on combination of tTF-NGR with anthracyclines and trabectedin; low competition of targeted or immune therapy in soft tissue sarcoma (STS)
Investigational Medicinal Product: Patients will receive a dose of the Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) tTF-NGR determined to be safe within the safety run-in cohort of the study as 1-hour rate-controlled infusion (port central venous access, 0.9 % NaCl ad 100 mL) per day for 2 consecutive days following each trabectedin cycle (within 1 hour interval between end of trabectedin infusion and tTF-NGR: e.g.: trabectedin on monday 8 am to tuesday 8 am followed by tTF-NGR on tuesday latest 9 am and on the following day, q d 22 x until disease progression or contraindications against further application.
Indication: Unresectable or metastatic STS after failure of anthracycline-containing first line treatment or with contraindications to these drugs; CD13 positivity in central histology (grade >/= 1+)
Primary objective and endpoints: The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate whether tTF-NGR in combination with standard trabectedin chemotherapy given for unresectable or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma after failure of anthracycline-containing first line therapy or with contraindications to these drugs prolongs progression-free survival, as compared with trabectedin alone. The following efficacy endpoint (for the randomized phase III part) will be considered:
- Progression-free survival (PFS) according to iRECIST (Seymour L, Lancet Oncol. 2017) as judged by central radiology in a blinded fashion after end of trial.
