Trial summary

Apatinib has led to positive responses in the treatment of osteosarcoma refractory to first-line chemotherapy. However, apatinib demonstrates only short-lived activity, and the disease control of musculoskeletal lesions is worse than that of pulmonary lesions. Read more about this study

  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • 1) histologically confirmed high-grade osteosarcoma;
  • 2) initial treatment in the Orthopedic/Oncology Departments of Peking University People's Hospital or Peking University Shougang Hospital;
  • 3) progression less than 6 months after first-line chemotherapy with a combination of high-dose methotrexate, doxorubicin, cisplatin and ifosfamide (first-line chemotherapy);

About this study

Official title: Apatinib in Combination With Ifosfamide and Etoposide (IE) for Relapsed or Refractory Osteosarcoma Progressed Upon First-line Chemotherapy (AIEO): a Prospective, Multiple-centre, Single-arm, Phase 2 Trial

Apatinib has led to positive responses in the treatment of osteosarcoma refractory to first-line chemotherapy. However, apatinib demonstrates only short-lived activity, and the disease control of musculoskeletal lesions is worse than that of pulmonary lesions. This treatment failure has been partly overcome by the addition of ifosfamide and etoposide (IE). We have ever retrospectively compared the activity of apatinib + IE in relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma in two sarcoma centers in China and concluded that for osteosarcoma with multiple sites of metastasis, apatinib + IE demonstrated clinically meaningful antitumor activity and delayed disease progression in patients with recurrent or refractory osteosarcoma after failure of chemotherapy. However to overcome the influence of other interventions on the outcome, we are currently performing a prospective trial to investigate this combination, from which more accurate data on this treatment strategy are expected.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression free survival

    from the start of target treatment until disease progression or death, whichever came first.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall survival

    from the date of treatment initiation to death from any cause.

    Measured: 3 years

Timeline

  2. Study start1 Apr 2021
  3. Primary completion1 Apr 2026 (estimated)
  4. Study completion1 Apr 2026 (estimated)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing apatinib in people with Effect of Drug and Toxicity, Drug, run by Peking University People's Hospital 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 10 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2024. 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 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?

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?

Progression free survival (time frame: 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 14 May 2024.
