Efatutazone Dihydrochloride in Treating Patients With Previously Treated Myxoid Liposarcoma That Cannot Be Removed by Surgery

NCT02249949

Description:

This phase II trial studies how well efatutazone dihydrochloride works in treating patients with previously treated myxoid liposarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as efatutazone dihydrochloride, 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.

Purpose

This phase II trial studies how well efatutazone dihydrochloride works in treating patients with previously treated myxoid liposarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as efatutazone dihydrochloride, 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.

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To determine the confirmed response rate for efatutazone dihydrochloride (efatutazone) in
      patients with advanced myxoid liposarcoma whose disease has progressed on at least one prior
      therapy.

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To assess the progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse event
      rates for efatutazone treated patients with advanced myxoid liposarcoma whose disease has
      progressed on at least one prior therapy.

      TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To assess the predictive value of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and
      retinoid X receptors (RXR) tumor expression from archived patient tumor samples.

      II. To assess the predictive value of the expression of PPARgamma-regulated markers of
      adipocytes differentiation.

      III. To assess the predictive value of the expression of PPARgamma-regulated cell cycle
      proteins.

      IV. To assess the effects of efatutazone treatment on serum adiponectin levels.

      OUTLINE:

      Patients receive efatutazone dihydrochloride orally (PO) twice daily (BID) continuously.
      Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 12 weeks for 2 years and
      then every 6 months for up to 5 years.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Confirmed Overall Response Rate Per the RECIST 1.1 Criteria
Time Frame:Up to 24 weeks (8 cycles)
Safety Issue:
Description:The response rate (percentage) is the percent of patients whose best response was Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria. Percentage of successes will be estimated by 100 times the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Progression Free Survival (PFS) Determined Based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1
Time Frame:Time from study entry to the first of either disease progression or death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Progression free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from study entry to the date of disease progression or death resulting from any cause, whichever comes first. Progression is defined according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. The median and 95% confidence intervals are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator.
Measure:Overall Survival
Time Frame:Time from study entry to death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Overall survival time is defined as the time from study entry to death due to any cause. The median and 95% confidence intervals are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator.
Measure:Incidence of Grade 3+ Adverse Events Summarized Using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0
Time Frame:Up to 5 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Incidence of grade 3+ adverse events summarized using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0: The frequency and percentage of grade 3+ adverse events will be estimated
