About this study

Official title: Multicenter, Open-label Study of YONDELIS (Trabectedin) in Subjects With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Liposarcoma or Leiomyosarcoma

The purpose of this study is to find the optimal dose of trabectedin for Chinese patients with locally advanced or metastatic L-sarcoma (liposarcoma or leiomyosarcoma) who were previously treated (in any order) with at least an anthracycline and ifosfamide containing regimen, or an anthracycline containing regimen and 1 additional cytotoxic chemotherapy regimen (Part 1) and to evaluate whether the overall survival (OS) of the trabectedin group is superior to dacarbazine group (Part 2).

Read the detailed description

The study is divided into 2 separate parts (ie, Part 1 and Part 2). Part 1 is a dose finding part (to find the optimal dose) of trabectedin for Chinese patients, and Part 2 is a multicenter, randomized (the study medication is assigned by chance), active-controlled (an active substance that is compared with the study medication to test whether the study medication has a real effect in clinical study), parallel-group (a study comparing the response in two or more groups of patients receiving different interventions), open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention) bridging part comparing the efficacy and safety of the optimal dose of trabectedin with dacarbazine in the same population as in Part 1. The study (in both Part 1 and Part 2) will consist of a screening phase, a treatment phase and a follow-up phase. Part 1: Optimal dose (ie, maximum tolerated dose [MTD]) is determined from the following 3 dose levels: Dose level 1 (1.5 mg/m2), Dose level 2 (1.2 mg/m2), and Dose level 3 (1.0 mg/m2)of trabectedin. Cohorts of 6 patients will be treated at each dose level. To determine MTD, dose limiting toxicity (DLT; any pre-defined adverse event that occurs during the first cycle ie, Cycle 1) will be determined. In the first cohort of 6 patients, (a) if DLT is less than or equal to 1 at a dose level, it is considered as MTD (b) if DLT is greater than 2, patients will be de-escalated to next dose level (c) if DLT is equal to 2, 3 more patients will be included at that dose level and if there will be no DLT in those 3 patients, that dose level is considered as MTD. Part 2: If the optimal dose found in Part 1 is 1.5 mg/m2, approximately 48 patients will be randomly assigned to either the trabectedin (approximately 32 patients) or dacarbazine (approximately 16 patients) treatment group in Part 2. If the optimal dose found in Part 1 is below 1.5 mg/m2, 123 patients will be randomly assigned to either the trabectedin (approximately 82 patients) or dacarbazine (approximately 41 patients) treatment group. Safety will be evaluated by assessing adverse events, clinical laboratory test, multiple gated acquisition scans, electrocardiograms, vital signs, and physical examination throughout the study up to 30 days after the end of treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Part 1: Optimal dose level (Maximum tolerated dose [MTD]) of trabectidin

    MTD (1.5, 1.2 or 1.0 mg/m2) is determined by assessing Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT).

    Measured: From the date of dosing until 21days after the date of last patient enrolled

  2. Part 1: Overall survival

    Patients will be monitored for survival status at least every 60 days for the first 2 years after the last dose of study drug and every 90 days thereafter.

    Measured: From the date of dosing upto 18 months after the last patient enrollment or 30 days after the last dose of study medication has been administered, whichever will be later

  3. Part 2: Overall survival

    Patients will be monitored for survival status at least every 60 days for the first 2 years after the last dose of study drug and every 90 days thereafter.

    Measured: From the date of randomization until the required number of events has occurred (approximately 32 if 1.5mg/m2, or 82 with below 1.5mg/m2) as assessed approximately for 6 months after the last patient enrollment

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Part 1: Progression free survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from dosing to the occurrence of disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.

  7. Part 1: Duration of response (DR)

    Duration of response (DR) is defined only for patients who have CR or PR as best overall response and is calculated from the date of the first documentation of response to the date of disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: From date of dosing until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever comes first, as assessed approximately up to 18 months after the last patient enrollment

  8. Part 2: Duration of response (DR)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Trabectedin and Dacarbazine in people with Advanced or Metastatic Liposarcoma or Leiomyosarcoma, run by Xian-Janssen Pharmaceutical Ltd. at 2 sites in China.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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 11 Jul 2018. 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 China. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Part 1: Optimal dose level (Maximum tolerated dose [MTD]) of trabectidin (time frame: From the date of dosing until 21days after the date of last patient enrolled). 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 11 Jul 2018.
