About this study

The investigators explored the safety and activity of weekly irinotecan liposomes in patients with relapsed and metastatic Ewing Sarcoma.

Read the detailed description

After standard multimodal therapy, the prognosis of relapsed and metastatic Ewing Sarcoma is dismal and unchanged over the last decades. The anti-tumor activity of irinotecan was demonstrated by several studies in the past. However, longer schedule of irinotecan infusion (traditionally dx5x2) has impacted quality of life in these patients. The irinotecan liposomes may be more active than the parent compound irinotecan since its ability to stay longer in circulation system, and much more convenient to given weekly.

Thus, the investigators explored the safety and activity of weekly irinotecan liposomes in patients with relapsed and metastatic Ewing Sarcoma after the failure of first-line chemotherapy with doxorubicin, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, ifosphamide and etoposide. Bayesian Optimal Interval (BOIN) design is adopted in this dose-finding study.

What is being measured

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

  1. maximum tolerated dose (MTD)

    To evaluate the maximum tolerated dose of weekly irinotecan liposomes for patients with relapsed or refractory Ewing sarcoma.

    Measured: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    To assess the preliminary progression free survival of irinotecan liposomes in patients with relapsed or refractory Ewing sarcoma.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Irinotecan Hydrochloride Liposome Injection in people with Ewing Sarcoma, run by Peking University People's Hospital at 3 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 13 inclusion and 8 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

maximum tolerated dose (MTD) (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 3 Apr 2024.
