About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of MLN8237, a Selective Aurora A Kinase Inhibitor in Children With Recurrent/Refractory Solid Tumors and Leukemias

This phase II trial is studying the side effects of and how well alisertib works in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. Alisertib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To determine the objective response rate to MLN8237 (alisertib) in children with relapsed or refractory solid tumors and leukemias, administered once daily for 7 days every 21 days.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To further define and describe the toxicities of MLN8237 administered on this schedule.

II. To further characterize the pharmacokinetics of MLN8237 in children with refractory cancer.

III. To evaluate aurora A kinase expression using immunohistochemistry in solid tumors and leukemic blasts from tissue obtained at diagnosis and, if available, at relapse.

IV. To explore the relationship between polymorphic variations in the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase gene UGT1A1 and exposure to MLN8237, and to assess 2 common polymorphic variants in the aurora A kinase gene, Phe31Ile and Val57Ile.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to type of tumor (measurable neuroblastoma vs neuroblastoma with metaiodobenzylguanidine [MIBG]-positive lesions vs osteosarcoma vs Ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor [PNET] vs rhabdosarcoma vs non-rhabdomyosarcoma [RMS] soft tissue sarcoma vs hepatoblastoma vs malignant germ cell tumor vs Wilms tumor vs acute myeloid leukemia [AML] vs acute lymphoblastic leukemia [ALL] vs rhabdoid tumors).

ARM IX (WILMS TUMOR): Patients receive alisertib PO QD on days 1-7. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 35 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM X (ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA): Patients receive alisertib PO QD on days 1-7. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 35 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM XI (ACUTE MYELOGENOUS LEUKEMIA): Patients receive alisertib PO QD on days 1-7. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 35 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM XII (RHABDOID MALIGNANCY): Patients receive alisertib PO QD on days 1-7. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 35 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Plasma samples are collected from all patients at baseline and periodically during course 1 for pharmacokinetic and other studies.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed up for 5 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Alisertib, Laboratory Biomarker Analysis and Pharmacological Study in people with Hepatoblastoma and Previously Treated Childhood Rhabdomyosarcoma, run by Children's Oncology Group at 105 sites in 2 countries.

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 69 inclusion and 11 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 13 May 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 105 sites in United States, Canada. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Jun 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Overall Response (time frame: From first dose of alisertib through 6 cycles of protocol therapy or until removal from protocol therapy whichever occurred first.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01154816, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 13 May 2020.
