About this study

Official title: Pazopanib in Advanced GISTs Refractory to Imatinib and Sunitinib - A Non-comparative Phase II Multicenter Study by the Scandinavian Sarcoma Group

Patients with metastatic or locally advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) who develop resistance against the two hitherto approved drugs for this disease, the tyrosin kinase inhibitors (TKIs) imatinib and sunitinib, have a poor prognosis. Sometimes a further response may be achieved by other drugs, mainly other TKIs, which have been explored in different studies but not yet have been approved for clinical use. Pazopanib is a TKI inhibiting the tyrosin kinases KIT, PDGFRA, and VEGF 1-3, all of which have important roles in the pathogenesis of GIST. Theoretically, it may function in GIST, and it deserves investigational trials. The drug is approved for metastatic renal cancer and is relatively well tolerated. In this trial (SSG XXI), the disease control rate (DCR) = (CR+PR+SD) after 12 weeks of treatment will be assessed as the primary endpoint, and at the same time trough levels will be measured. Secondary endpoints include ORR, PFS, toxicity, and disease control rate in relation to trough level week 12 and in relation to the primary mutation of the tumor (if known). The goal is to include 72 patients in the trial, which is open and single arm.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease control rate

    The ratio of patients with CR (complete remission) + PR (partial remission) + SD (stable disease) at week 12 after start of treatment

    Measured: Week 12

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    Progression free survival (KM analysis) for all patients administered the study drug

    Measured: The patients will be followed for the duration of the trial treatment, an expected average of 6 months

  2. DCR in relation to mutation

    Disease control rate as described above in relation to the type of mutation of the primary tumor if this is available (not mandatory)

    Measured: Week 12

  3. DCR in relation to plasma concentration

    Disease control rate as defined above in relation to the trough level (plasma concentration) of the study drug at week 12

    Measured: Week 12

  4. Toxicity

    Recording of adverse events including SAE/SAR for all patients administered the study drug

    Measured: The patients will be followed for the duration of the trial treatment + 1 month, an expected average of 7 months

  5. Overall response rate

    ORR = CR+PR at the time of best response during the study period

    Measured: The patients will be followed for the duration of the trial treatment, an expected average of 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Pazopanib in people with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors, run by Scandinavian Sarcoma Group at 16 sites in 5 countries.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in Sweden, Germany, Norway, Denmark, Finland. 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 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?

Disease control rate (time frame: Week 12). 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 10 May 2017.
