About this study

Official title: A Phase II Evaluation of Pazopanib (NSC # 737754) in the Treatment of Recurrent or Persistent Carcinosarcoma of the Uterus

This phase II trial studies how well pazopanib hydrochloride works in treating patients with uterine cancer that has come back or has not responded to treatment. Pazopanib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Pazopanib hydrochloride may also stop the growth of uterine cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess the activity of pazopanib in patients with persistent or recurrent carcinosarcoma of the uterus as measured by the proportion of patients who survive progression-free for at least 6 months and the proportion of patients who have objective tumor response (complete or partial).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the frequency and severity of adverse events as assessed by Common Terminology Criteria of Adverse Events version 4.0 (CTCAE v4.0).

II. To determine the duration of progression-free survival and overall survival.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive pazopanib hydrochloride orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years.

Receives: Drug: Pazopanib Hydrochloride

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Tumor Response (Complete or Partial)

    Complete and Partial Tumor Response by RECIST 1.0. Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR

    Measured: CT scan or MRI if used to follow lesion(s) for measurable disease every other cycle for the first 6 mnths; then every 3 mnths thereafter until dx progression is confirmed; also repeat any other time clinically indicated, assessed up to 6 months.

  2. Percentage of Participants With Progression-free Survival (PFS) at 6 Months

    Progression-free survival is the period from study entry until disease progression, death or date of last contact. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20 % increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Number of Patients With Grade 3 or Higher Adverse Events

    Grade 3 or higher adverse events were graded by CTCAE v4.

    Measured: Every cycle while on treatment

Secondary outcomes (2)

  1. Progression-free Survival

    Progression-free survival is the period from study entry until disease progression, death or date of last contact

    Measured: From start of treatment to time of progression or death, assessed up to 5 years

  2. Overall Survival

    The observed length of life from entry into the study to death or the date of last contact.

    Measured: Time from start of treatment to time of death or the date of last contact, assessed up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Pazopanib Hydrochloride in people with Recurrent Uterine Corpus Sarcoma and Uterine Carcinosarcoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 41 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 50 inclusion and 27 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 8 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 41 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Jul 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?

Objective Tumor Response (Complete or Partial) (time frame: CT scan or MRI if used to follow lesion(s) for measurable disease every other cycle for the first 6 mnths; then every 3 mnths thereafter until dx progression is confirmed; also repeat any other time clinically indicated, assessed up to 6 months.). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01247571.

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 Aug 2019.
