Trial summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving chemotherapy before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed during surgery. Giving chemotherapy after surgery may kill more tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Osteosarcoma: Outcome of Therapy Based on Histologic Response. A Collaborative Effort of the POB/NCI, Texas Children's Hospital and University of Oklahoma.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving chemotherapy before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed during surgery. Giving chemotherapy after surgery may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving chemotherapy before and after surgery works in treating patients with osteosarcoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the rate of in vivo histologic response in patients with osteosarcoma treated with neoadjuvant cisplatin, methotrexate, and doxorubicin with dexrazoxane (as cardioprotection).
  • Determine the event-free and overall survival of patients with nonmetastatic disease who show good response to neoadjuvant therapy and receive adjuvant therapy with the same regimen.
  • Determine the event-free survival of patients with nonmetastatic disease who show poor response to neoadjuvant therapy and receive adjuvant therapy with the same regimen.
  • Determine the event-free survival and overall survival of patients with metastatic disease who receive neoadjuvant therapy.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

  • Neoadjuvant therapy: Patients receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy comprising dexrazoxane IV over 15 minutes, doxorubicin IV over 15 minutes, and cisplatin IV over 4 hours on days 1 and 2 in week 0. Patients also receive methotrexate IV over 4 hours followed by leucovorin calcium in weeks 3 and 4. Patients then receive filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously (SC) once daily beginning 24 hours after completion of chemotherapy and continuing until blood counts recover. Treatment repeats every 5 weeks for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
  • Surgical resection: Patients undergo definitive surgery in week 11.
  • Adjuvant therapy: Patients receive dexrazoxane, doxorubicin, cisplatin, methotrexate, and leucovorin calcium as in neoadjuvant therapy*. Treatment repeats every 5 weeks for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

NOTE: *Cisplatin is not administered in courses 3 and 4 of adjuvant therapy

Patients are followed within 4 weeks, every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 2 years, and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 100 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing filgrastim, cisplatin and dexrazoxane hydrochloride in people with Cardiac Toxicity and Sarcoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 4 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of in vivo histologic response. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 8 Jun 2015.
