About this study
Official title: A Phase Ib/II Study of the Mirdametinib in Combination With Palbociclib in Patients With Advanced Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma
The purpose of this study is to find out whether mirdametinib in combination with palbociclib is an effective and safe treatment for people with metastatic, recurrent, and unresectable liposarcoma. This study will test different doses of mirdametinib in combination with a fixed dose of palbociclib to find the best safe dose for further testing.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
MirdametinibDrug
Mirdametinib (PD-0325901) is a highly selective non-ATP-competitive inhibitor of MEK1 and MEK2. It significantly inhibits the phosphorylation of the MAP kinases ERK1 and ERK2, leading to impaired tumor cell growth in vitro and in vivo in a broad spectrum of human tumors
PalbociclibDrug
Palbociclib (IBRANCE®) is a kinase inhibitor FDA approved for the following indications: treatment of adults with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer in combination with an aromatase inhibitor as initial endocrine-based therapy in postmenopausal women or in men or fulvestrant in patients with disease progression following endocrine therapy.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Phase I | Experimental | Dose escalation phase Receives: Drug: Mirdametinib; Drug: Palbociclib |
| Phase II | Experimental | During the phase II portion, 30 patients with advanced DDLPS will be enrolled. All patients in the phase II study will receive the RP2D of mirdametinib plus palbociclib. Receives: Drug: Mirdametinib; Drug: Palbociclib |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Maximum tolerated dose (Phase I)
To determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of mirdametinib plus palbociclib in patients with DDLPS
Measured: Up to 1 year
Progression free survival rate
Phase II: To determine the progression-free survival rate at 18 weeks by RECIST 1.1
Measured: 18 weeks
