LAM Pilot Study With Imatinib Mesylate
- Conditions
- Lymphangioleiomyomatosis
- Interventions
- Drug: Imatinib Mesylate 400Mg CapsuleDrug: Placebo - Capsule
- Registration Number
- NCT03131999
- Lead Sponsor
- Medical University of South Carolina
- Brief Summary
This is a phase 1 clinical trial comparing imatinib mesylate to placebo for individuals with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM).
- Detailed Description
This is a double blind, adjusted parallel design, randomized clinical trial comparing imatinib mesylate 400 mg daily or matching placebo on the primary outcome of log transformed serum VEGF-D level in patients with LAM.
Sirolimus using patients will have co-administration of Imatinib mesylate or placebo for 28 days prior to sirolimus discontinuation.
The duration of 400 mg imatinib mesylate or placebo will be 56 days, a dose reduction is allowed for toxicity.
The primary endpoint will be the change in the log transformed VEGF-D one month after monotherapy imatinib mesylate or placebo.
Total trial duration is 2 months of drug administration.
