Trial summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery may kill more tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Neoadjuvant Doxorubicin and Ifosfamide, Radiotherapy, and Surgical Resection in Patients With Primary or Recurrent Retroperitoneal Sarcoma

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery in treating patients who have primary or recurrent sarcoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the overall survival of patients with primary or recurrent retroperitoneal sarcomas treated with neoadjuvant doxorubicin and ifosfamide, radiotherapy, and surgical resection.
  • Assess local-regional control in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the disease-free survival of patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the pathologic response in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the toxic effects of this regimen in these patients.
  • Determine the complications in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: Patients receive doxorubicin IV continuously on days 1-3 and ifosfamide IV over 3 hours on days 1-4. Patients also receive filgrastim (G-CSF) beginning on day 5 and continuing until blood counts recover. Treatment repeats every 21 days for a maximum of 4 courses in the absence of unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 2-4 weeks after chemotherapy, patients undergo radiotherapy daily, 5 days a week, for 5-6 weeks. Beginning 4-7 weeks after radiotherapy, patients undergo complete surgical resection with intraoperative or postoperative radiotherapy or brachytherapy.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 48 patients will be accrued for this study within 24 months.

Being tested

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00017160.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Jun 2013.
