Clinical Trial Evaluating Metronomic Chemotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Osteosarcoma (GLATO2017)

March 9, 2017 updated by: Antônio Sérgio Petrilli, Grupo de Apoio ao Adolescente e a Crianca com Cancer

A Study Multicenter Randomized to Assess the Efficacy and Toxicity of Adding Metronomic Therapy to the Standard Treatment of Patients With High Grade Malignant Osteosarcoma With Metastatic Lung Disease at Diagnosis and Primary Resectable Tumor: A Study by the Latin American Group for Treatment of Osteosarcoma

Preclinical models show that a daily antiangiogenic regimen at low-dose may be effective against chemotherapy-resistant tumors. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of maintenance therapy with continuous oral cyclophosphamide and methotrexate in patients with high grade, operable, metastatic osteosarcoma (OST) of the extremities. The primary end point is event-free survival (EFS) from randomization

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The study design includes backbone of 10 weeks of preoperative therapy using MAP (high-dose methotrexate, cisplatin, doxorubicin and dexrazoxane). Metastatic patients were randomized to high-dose chemotherapy for 31 weeks (arm 1) or concomitant metronomic therapy (MTX plus cyclophosphamide) such as 31 weeks of high-dose chemotherapy, followed by 73 weeks of metronomic therapy after completion of high-dose chemotherapy, totaling 104 weeks of metronomic therapy (arm 2).

Study Type

Enrollment (Anticipated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

1 day to 30 years (ADULT, CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • A newly diagnosed patient, previously untreated, with a high degree of malignancy, confirmed by biopsy. Participant with OST as a neoplasm are also eligible
  • Participant with staging imaging studies performed less than four weeks. Otherwise, it should be re-staged
  • If pre-chemotherapy amputation is necessary, the participant will enter the study being excluded from the evaluation of tumor necrosis grade according to Huvos, but eligible for survival analysis
  • Participant aged ≥ 16 years should have a Karnofsky performance score> 50 or WHO / ECOG ≥ 2 and patients <16 years should have a Lansky performance score> 50. Participant with a performance score impaired by the presence of a pathological fracture are eligible
  • Patients with normal organic function
  • Sexually active participant should agree to use contraceptive methods throughout the treatment
  • Female participant should have a negative pregnancy test

Exclusion Criteria:

  • If the participant or their legal guardian refuses to sign the informed consent form / consent term it will not be included in the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Efficacy and toxicity of adding metronomic therapy in disease event-free survival.
Time Frame: Five years
To assess the impact of adding metronome therapy to the standard treatment of patients with resectable end-stage osteosarcoma and metastatic lung disease in event-free survival.
Five years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Efficacy and toxicity of adding metronomic therapy in overall survival
Time Frame: Five years
To evaluate the impact of the addition of metronomic therapy to the standard treatment of patients with end-resectable osteosarcoma and metastatic lung disease in overall survival.
Five years
Cardiotoxicity (occurrence of cardiotoxicity)
Time Frame: Five years
To compare the occurrence of cardiotoxicity with the addition of dexrazoxane since the first cycle of doxorubicin with the findings of the previous study (GLATO 2006).
