About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicentre Phase II Study of the Efficacy of Lenvatinib Combined With Denosumab in the Treatment of Patients With Predominant Bone Metastatic Radioiodine Refractory Differentiated Thyroid Carcinomas (LENVOS)

This study evaluates the combination of lenvatinib with denosumab in bone-predominant metastatic Radioiodine Refractory Differentiated Thyroid Carcinomas. All patients will receive this combination of treatments.

Read the detailed description

Patients are usually considered for directed therapy (radiotherapy and/or surgery and/or thermo-ablation) in case of symptomatic lesions or at high risk of local complications. They also usually receive systemic bone-directed agents (bisphosphonate or denosumab), despite sparse available data in the context of differentiated thyroid carcinomas (DTC). As bone-directed agents have no antitumor activity, patients may require additional treatments. To date, only sorafenib and lenvatinib have been approved in the treatment of advanced Radioiodine Refractory Differentiated Thyroid Carcinomas (RR-DTC).

Lenvatinib demonstrated efficacy in RR-DTC compared to placebo. While other kinase inhibitors appeared to be less effective in controlling bone metastatic disease compared to other soft tissue sites, lenvatinib showed, in a small number of patients, significant decrease in bone tumors size.

Even if both study drugs are indicated in the treatment of patients suffering from RR-DTC with bone metastases, it is of essential importance to confirm that lenvatinib can provide clinical benefit and antitumor activity when combined with denosumab in this population.

Lenvatinib + Denosumab

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Lenvatinib + DenosumabDrug

    Lenvatinib and Denosumab will be used in the indication of their respective SmPCs.

    Study treatments will be divided in fictitious cycles of 28 days. Lenvatinib and Denosumab will be administered as per investigator's decision, based on the data from their SmPC, at starting doses of 24mg once daily and 120mg once every 4 weeks, respectively. Dose modification guidelines of their respective SmPCs will apply.

    Lenvatinib should be started the day after the inclusion. It will be taken every day at the same time, preferentially in the morning.

    As in routine practice, all patients will be supplemented with daily doses of at least 500mg Calcium and 400IU Vitamin D, unless hypercalcemia is present.

    Patients will be encouraged to maintain good oral hygiene during treatment with Denosumab.

    Study drugs will be continued until a treatment discontinuation criterion is met

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lenvatinib + Denosumab in people with Thyroid Cancer Metastatic, run by Centre Leon Berard at 14 sites in France.

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 57 inclusion and 0 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Julien Gautier (0426556829 ext. +33, julien.gautier@lyon.unicancer.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determination of the efficacy of lenvatinib associated with denosumab in the treatment of patients with predominant bone metastases from Radioiodine-Refractory Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma (time frame: 24 months). The study lists 4 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 29 Mar 2022.
