Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 2 to 50 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: Had diagnosis of high grade osteosarcoma with relapsed or recurrent disease, locally or metastatic, with disease not completely resectable or who were unable to complete recommended chemotherapy due to toxicity: relapse, recurrence local or metastatic; unable to have standard surgical resection; abbreviated chemotherapy regimen secondary to toxicity.

Who may be able to join

  • Had signed informed consent/assent. Voluntary participation in the pharmacokinetic portion of the compassionate access protocol was included in the informed consent but not required for compassionate use participation.
  • Had diagnosis of high grade osteosarcoma with relapsed or recurrent disease, locally or metastatic, with disease not completely resectable or who were unable to complete recommended chemotherapy due to toxicity: relapse, recurrence local or metastatic; unable to have standard surgical resection; abbreviated chemotherapy regimen secondary to toxicity (e.g. hypophosphatemia from ifosfamide, cardiotoxicity from doxorubicin, renal dysfunction from methotrexate, ifosfamide, or cisplatin.)
  • Aged 2 ≤ 50 years.
  • Had adequate hematopoietic function as demonstrated by: 1) Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) > 750/microL; Hemoglobin (Hb) > 8 g/dL; Platelets > 30,000/microL.
  • Had adequate hepatic function as documented by 1) ALT < 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age; 2) total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN for age.
  • Had adequate renal function as demonstrated by: 1) Creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate > 70 mL/min/1.73 m^2; OR, 2) Serum creatinine ≤ 2x ULN for age.
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Had absence of concurrent active acute infection (i.e., afebrile).
  • In females of child bearing potential (not menopausal for 12 months or no previous surgical sterilization), had a negative pregnancy test. All sexually active participants used an effective means of contraception. Such means included oral contraceptives, Lupron Depot, DepoProvera, and condom with diaphragm and spermicidal jelly.
  • Performance status: Lansky 50-100% (≤ 16 years of age); OR, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 0-2 or Karnofsky 50-100% (>16 years of age).

Who cannot join

  • Had chronic use of corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive agents.
  • Was pregnant or breast-feeding.

About this study

Official title: Liposomal Muramyl Tripeptide Phosphatidyl Ethanolamine (L-MTP-PE) for High-risk Osteosarcoma

The purpose of this study was to collect information regarding the safety and tolerability of mifamurtide (liposomal muramyl tripeptide phosphatidyl ethanolamine; L-MTP-PE).

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested in this study is called mifamurtide (L-MTP-PE; liposomal muramyl tripeptide phosphatidyl ethanolamine). Mifamurtide is being used to treat people with osteosarcoma, a form of cancer.

This was a patient-access study that looked at adverse events, disease progression, and overall survival in study participants.

The study enrolled 205 patients, of whom 204 were treated with mifamurtide intravenously at a dose of 2 mg/m2 twice weekly (at least 3 days apart) for 12 weeks, and then weekly for an additional 24 weeks, for a total of 48 doses in 36 weeks (following surgery for primary or metastatic disease).

This study was conducted in the United States. Participants could receive treatment for up to 9 months. This study was previously mis-categorized as an interventional study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of participants with adverse events

    Measured: 12 months or disease progression, whichever occurs first

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Serum concentration-time profiles of free and total mifamurtide in 15-20 patients

    Measured: Just before the start of the first infusion of mifamurtide and at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 and, 24 hours following the start of the first infusion and just prior to the 2nd dose of mifamurtide

  2. Overall survival

    Measured: From date of enrollment to date of death

  3. Progression-free survival

    Measured: From date of enrollment to date of first documented disease progression or death

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteosarcoma, run by Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 2 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?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Number of participants with adverse events (time frame: 12 months or disease progression, whichever occurs first). 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 14 May 2014.
