In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow-up hormone level assessment is she considered not of childbearing potential.

  • Chronic treatment with corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive agents. Topical or inhaled corticosteroids are allowed.

  • Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus defined as HbA1c > 8% despite adequate therapy. Patients with a known history of impaired fasting glucose or diabetes mellitus may be included; however, blood glucose and antidiabetic treatment must be monitored closely throughout the trial and adjusted as necessary.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure of NYHA class III or IV, active coronary artery disease, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, myocardia infraction ≤ 6 months prior to start of everolimus, uncontrolled hypertension (systolic pressure > 150 mmHg or diastolic pressure > 90 mmHg), uncontrolled seizure disorder, liver disease such as cirrhosis, decompensated liver disease, active and chronic hepatitis, known severely impaired lung function (spirometry and DLCO 50% or less of normal and 02 saturation 88% or less at rest on room air), active bleeding diathesis, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Pregnant and/or breastfeeding. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 14 days of study entry.
  • Known HIV-positivity on combination antiretroviral therapy because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with everolimus. In addition, these patients are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy. Appropriate studies will be undertaken in patients receiving combination antiretroviral therapy when indicated.

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Everolimus in Patients With Advanced Solid Malignancies With TSC1, TSC2, NF1, NF2, or STK11 Mutations

The purpose of this research study is to look at participants with solid tumor malignancies and specific mutations respond to treatment with everolimus.

Read the detailed description

Cancer is a molecularly heterogeneous disease comprised of complex genomic alterations in common and overlapping pathways. Somatic inactivating mutations in tuberous sclerosis complex 1 (TSC1) gene were recently identified as potential markers of response to mTOR therapy. Everolimus is an oral derivative of rapamycin. At the cellular and molecular level, everolimus acts as a signal transduction inhibitor, and selectively inhibits mTOR. We hypothesize that everolimus will exhibit clinical activity in solid malignancies harboring TSC1, TSC2, NF1, NF2, or STK11 mutations.

    Also called RAD001, Afinitor, Votubia

Study groups in NCT02352844
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Arm 1 (everolimus)ExperimentalEverolimus is an oral drug which will be administered on an outpatient basis at a dose of 10 mg daily on a 28-day cycle.
Receives: Drug: Everolimus

What is being measured

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

  1. Response Rate (RR)

    The primary endpoint will be to describe the response rate using RECIST 1.1. Response rate will be defined as complete response (disappearance of all target lesion) plus partial response (a least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions).

    Measured: Completion of treatment (estimated average of 6 months)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mutations Associated With Therapeutic Response

    -To correlate mutations in the mTOR pathway with therapeutic response with everolimus

    Measured: Completion of treatment (estimated average of 6 months)

  2. Genetic Changes Associated With Disease Progression

    -To investigate the genetic changes associated with disease progression following treatment with everolimus.

    Measured: Completion of treatment (estimated average of 6 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Everolimus in people with Solid Malignancy and Solid Tumor, run by Washington University School of Medicine at 1 site 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 19 inclusion and 12 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 2 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 2 Oct 2018). 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?

Response Rate (RR) (time frame: Completion of treatment (estimated average of 6 months)). 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 2 Oct 2018.
