- Lead Sponsor
- Italian Sarcoma Group
- Brief Summary
This is a trial for patients affected by metastatic or relapsed osteosarcoma which progressed after first or further line treatments. In this trial, all patients will be treated until progression or unacceptable toxicity with sorafenib and everolimus. The treatment with sorafenib and everolimus aimed to obtain a 50% rate of patients free from further progression of the disease after 6 months from study entry.
- Detailed Description
Patients affected by metastatic or relapsed osteosarcoma which progressed after first or further line treatments still have a poor outcome. Standard chemotherapy has limited activity in these patients.
In a previous study in patient affected by relapsed unresectable osteosarcoma, sorafenib alone demonstrated promising activity. In the preclinical setting, everolimus was able to improve the activity of sorafenib. Sorafenib and everolimus, by hitting crucial pathways which are essential for osteosarcoma cell proliferation and survival, with an entirely different approach aimed to overcome the resistance to standard chemotherapy showed by relapsed osteosarcoma. In this trial, all patients will be treated with sorafenib and everolimus at the dosage of 800 mg and 5 mg per day, respectively. Both drugs have to be taken orally. The treatment will be continued until progression or unacceptable toxicities. The objective of the present trial is to obtain a 50% rate of patients alive and free from progression of their disease 6 months after trial enrolment. The disease will be evaluated every 2 months with a CT scan.

Group Intervention Description sorafenib and everolimus Sorafenib This is an open label study: all patients will be treated with sorafenib 400 mg twice a day in combination with everolimus 5mg per day sorafenib and everolimus Everolimus This is an open label study: all patients will be treated with sorafenib 400 mg twice a day in combination with everolimus 5mg per day
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Progression Free Survival rate at 6 months 6 months from registration into the study Progression Free Survival rate at 6 months refers to the rate of patients alive and free from progression of the disease at 6 months from registration into the study. Disease will be assessed every 8 weeks up to 2 years until progression or death whichever came first.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method progression free survival From randomization until progression or death whichever came first up to 2 years Progression Free Survival (PFS) refers to the time from registration into the study to the date of progressive disease or death whichever came first assessed every 8 weeks up to 2 years. In the absence of progression, time will be censored at the date of last tumor assessment or follow-up
overall survival From randomization until death followed up to 5 years Overall survival (OS) is the time interval between date of registration into study and the date of death. For alive patients, time will be censored at the date of last follow-up.
Overall response rate From randomization until progression or death whichever came first up to 2 years Overall response rate refers to the rate of patients with complete, partial or minimal responses (defined as shrinkage of target lesions between 10 and 30%) according to RECIST 1.1. Disease will be assessed every 8 weeks up to 2 years.
Duration of response calculated from date of first assessement of non-progression until progression or death whichever came first up to 2 years Duration of response refers to the time from the date of the first assessement of non-progression to the date of progressive disease or death. Disease will be assessed every 8 weeks up to 2 years until progression or death whichever came first. In the absence of progression time will be censored at the date of last tumor assessment or follow-up.
Non-dimensional pattern of response calculated from randomization until progression or death whichever came first up to 2 years Non-dimensional pattern of response refers to the evaluation of any consistent variation in radio metabolic diagnostic test (i.e. PET or Bone scan) and/or changes in signal intensity, contrast uptake/enhancement and tumor density at CT/MRI according to Modified Response Criteria (MRC). From this point of view, patients will be considered in response if there has been an objective response or at least ONE of the following criteria are met:
1. An unequivocal reduction in tumor density at CT scan;
2. An unequivocal reduction in signal intensity and/or contrast enhancement at MRI;
3. An unequivocal reduction in SUV at PET scan;
4. An unequivocal reduction in bone scan uptake.
Disease will be assessed every 8 weeks up to 2 years until progression or death whichever came first.clinical benefit evaluated at each visit from randomizzation until progression or death whichever came first up to 2 years Clinical Benefit will be prospectively evaluated by means of Pain and Analgesic Scale recording of analgesic consume and as lack of progression of disease at six months.
Safety assessed at each visit from randomizzation until 28 days after the last dose of study treatment assumption up to 2 years Safety will be captured by recording: physical examinations, vital signs, performance status/body weight; blood tests and chemistry tests; intensity and severity of adverse events, use of analgesic medication at each visit until 28 days after last dose of study treatment assumption up to 2 years. Adverse events will be evaluated according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.0
