  • Measurable disease as assessed by RECIST criteria version 1.1.
  • Progression on, or intolerance to, at least one prior systemic regimen for sarcoma (including systemic treatment used in the adjuvant or neoadjuvant settings). For alveolar soft part sarcoma and dedifferentiated liposarcoma, there is no upper limit on the number of prior therapies that may have been received. For Ewing sarcoma and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, patients may have received no more than 3 prior lines of therapy (excluding systemic treatment used in the adjuvant or neoadjuvant settings).
  • Acceptable organ and marrow function as defined below:
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mm3 Hemoglobin ≥ 8.5 g/dL Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm3 Calculated creatinine clearance > 30 mL/min Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times upper limit of normal Aspartate Transaminase (AST) /Alanine Transaminase (ALT) ≤ 3.0 times upper limit of normal
  • Upper limit of normal is defined by the clinical laboratory performing the test.
  • Creatinine clearance is obtained using the lean body mass formula (Modified Cockcroft Gault)
  • If transaminase elevation and/or bilirubin elevation is attributed to the presence of liver metastases, a total bilirubin ≤ 2.5 times the upper limit of normal and an Aspartate Transaminase (AST) and Alanine Transaminase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 times the upper limit of normal are permissible. Patients with an elevated bilirubin level that is attributed to an inherited disorder, such as Gilbert's disease, may be enrolled at the discretion of the principal investigator.

  • Meet the following criteria regarding contraception:
  • Female patients who:
  • Are postmenopausal for at least 1 year before the screening visit, OR
  • Are surgically sterile, OR
  • If they are of childbearing potential, agree to practice 2 effective methods of contraception, at the same time, from the time of signing the informed consent form through 90 days after the last dose of study drug, OR
  • Agree to practice true abstinence when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. (Periodic abstinence [eg, calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods] and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.)

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of the Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) Selinexor in Combination With the Proteasome Inhibitor Ixazomib for the Treatment of Advanced Sarcoma

The main purpose of this study is to establish a safe and tolerable dose combination (the "maximum tolerated dose") of selinexor and ixazomib when used together for the treatment of patients with certain types of advanced sarcoma. The study will enroll patients with advanced dedifferentiated liposarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, alveolar soft part sarcoma and Ewing sarcoma. Future studies to further evaluate the safety and anti-cancer efficacy of this treatment for sarcoma will use the dose combination determined in this study.

Read the detailed description

Sarcoma is a rare form of cancer which originates from the soft tissues and bones of the body. There are more than 50 different types of sarcoma. The primary treatment approach for most types of advanced sarcoma involves chemotherapy, but newer treatment approaches are needed because chemotherapy is not curative, sometimes does not work well, and often has significant side effects.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new treatment for certain types of sarcoma. The new treatment involves two oral targeted drugs used in combination: selinexor and ixazomib. Selinexor inhibits the transport of certain proteins between the nucleus and the cytoplasm of the cell. Ixazomib is part of a class of drugs called proteasome inhibitors. Currently, neither of these drugs is approved for the treatment of sarcoma. The researchers believe this combination treatment may work effectively for certain types of sarcoma based on encouraging laboratory research results. The types of sarcoma in which the treatment will be tested are: dedifferentiated liposarcoma, alveolar soft part sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, and Ewing sarcoma. The purpose of this study is to define doses of selinexor and ixazomib that are safe and tolerable for patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)

    To establish the maximum tolerated dose combination for selinexor and ixazomib when used as a combination treatment for patients with dedifferentiated liposarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, alveolar soft part sarcoma and Ewing sarcoma. The MTD is defined by the time to event continual reassessment method, a model-based dose finding study design.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse Event (AE) Rate

    Adverse events will be collected from the day the patient receives the first dose of study treatment until 30 days after end-of-treatment. Adverse events will be reported by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE criteria), stratified by grade.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Selinexor and Ixazomib in people with Liposarcoma and Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors, run by Matthew Ingham 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 23 inclusion and 22 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Nov 2020. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) (time frame: Up to 2 years). 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 27 Nov 2020.
