Brief Summary

This randomized phase III trial studies how well combination chemotherapy (vincristine sulfate, dactinomycin, cyclophosphamide alternated with vincristine sulfate and irinotecan hydrochloride or vinorelbine) works compared to combination chemotherapy plus temsirolimus in treating patients with rhabdomyosarcoma (cancer that forms in the soft tissues, such as muscle), and has an intermediate chance of coming back after treatment (intermediate risk). Drugs used work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Combination chemotherapy and temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy plus temsirolimus is more effective than chemotherapy alone in treating patients with intermediate-risk rhabdomyosarcoma.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To compare the event-free survival (EFS) of patients with intermediate-risk (IR) rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) treated with surgery, radiotherapy, and vincristine (vincristine sulfate), dactinomycin, and cyclophosphamide (VAC) alternating with vincristine and irinotecan (irinotecan hydrochloride) (VI) (VAC/VI) with maintenance to that of patients treated with surgery, radiotherapy and VAC/VI plus temsirolimus with maintenance.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To compare the overall survival (OS) of patients with IR RMS treated with surgery, radiotherapy, and VAC alternating with VI with maintenance to that of patients treated with surgery, radiotherapy and VAC/VI plus temsirolimus with maintenance.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare the outcome of patients based on their FOXO1 fusion gene partner, by evaluating PAX3 versus (vs) PAX7 in all patients found to be FOXO1 fusion positive.

II. To compare the outcome of patients based on their \[F18\]-fluorodeoxy-D-glucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) response at week 9 (positive or negative), as assessed by Deauville criteria (5-point).

III. To estimate the frequency of patients with circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) (ctDNA) at diagnosis and subsequent time-points, and explore whether tumor-specific somatic variants are detectable in the ctDNA.

IV. To compare the outcome of patients (VAC/VI with or without temsirolimus) who have received maintenance therapy on ARST1431 to those who received VAC/VI on ARST0531.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Event-free Survival (EFS)Up to 3 years from study entry

The Kaplan-Meier method will used to estimate 3-year EFS between the randomized treatment groups (Regimen A (VAC/VI) vs. Regimen B (VAC/VI/Temsirolimus)) using the log-rank test. EFS event is defined as the time from study entry until first occurrence of progression, relapse, second malignancy, or death.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall Survival (OS)Up to 3 years from study entry

The Kaplan-Meier method will used to estimate 3-year OS between the randomized treatment groups (Regimen A (VAC/VI) vs. Regimen B (VAC/VI/Temsirolimus)) using the log-rank test. OS event is defined as the time from study entry until death.
