Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: [1] Histologically confirmed diagnosis of soft tissue sarcoma of high or intermediate grade with one of the following histological subtypes: [1a] Adipocytic sarcoma, including: i. Dedifferentiated, ii. Myxoid, iii. Round Cell, iv. Pleomorphic. [1b] Leiomyosarcoma. [2] Documented evidence of advanced (locally recurrent, locally advanced and/or metastatic) adipocytic (restricted to subtypes listed in Inclusion 1) or leiomyosarcoma, incurable by surgery and/or radiotherapy.

[5] Presence of measurable disease meeting the following criteria: [5a] At least one lesion of = 1.0 cm in long-axis diameter for non lymph nodes or = 1.5 cm in short-axis diameter for lymph nodes which is serially measurable according to RECIST 1.1 using either computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging or panoramic and close-up color photography. If there is only one target lesion and it is a nonlymph node, it should have a long-axis diameter of at least 1.5 cm. [5b] Lesions that have had radiotherapy must show radiographic evidence of disease progression based on RECIST 1.1 to be deemed a target lesion. [6] Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group, performance status of 0, 1 or 2. [7] Adequate renal function defined as calculated creatinine clearance = 50 mL/min per the Cockroft and Gault formula. [8] Adequate bone marrow function, defined as: [8a] ANC = 1,500/mm3 or = 1.5 x 10^9/L. [8b] Platelet count = 100,000/mm3 or = 100 x 10^9/L. [8c] Hb = 10g/dL at baseline (blood transfusions, hematopoietic growth factors and hematinics are allowed during the Prerandomization Phase to correct Hb values 3 times ULN, the ALP liver isoenzyme must be = 3 times ULN. [10] Female subjects of child-bearing potential must agree to use two forms of highly effective contraception from the last menstrual period prior to randomization (or use a double barrier method until they are on two forms of highly effective contraception for at least one menstrual cycle), during the study treatment, and for 3 months after the final dose of study treatment. [11] Male subjects and their female partner who are of child-bearing potential (as defined in Inclusion 10), and are not practicing total abstinence, must agree to use two forms of highly effective contraception from the last menstrual period of their female partner prior to randomization (or use a double barrier method until they are on two forms of highly effective contraception for at least one menstrual cycle), during study treatment, and for 3 months (or 6 months if they received dacarbazine) after the final dose of study treatment. [12] Voluntary agreement to provide written informed consent and the willingness and ability to comply with all aspects of the protocol. [13] Males or females aged = 18 years at the time of informed consent. Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: 0 F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 N
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: [1] Subjects who have received any anti-cancer therapy, including surgery or intratumoral therapy, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormonal, biological (including humanized antibodies) immunotherapy and targeted agents within 21 days, or five half-lives of the drug (whichever is longer), prior to randomization. [2] Subjects who have not recovered from acute toxicities as a result of prior anti-cancer therapy to = Grade 1, according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), except for peripheral neuropathy and alopecia. [3] Subjects that have previously been treated with dacarbazine or its analogue temozolomide, or eribulin. [4] Major surgery within 21 days prior to randomization.

[7] Subjects with a high probability of Long QT Syndrome, or QTc interval prolongation of more than or equal to 501 msec on at least two separate ECGs, following correction of any electrolyte imbalance. [8] Subjects with known central nervous system metastases. [9] Any serious concomitant illness or infectious disease or infectious disease not requiring treatment, but with significant risks for myelosuppressive complications associated with chemotherapy. [10] Any malignancy that required treatment, or has shown evidence of recurrence (except for soft tissue sarcoma, non-melanoma skin cancer, or histologically confirmed complete excision of carcinoma in situ) during the 5 years prior to randomization. [11] Female subjects must not be pregnant as documented by a negative beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (ß-hCG) test with a minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent unit of ß-hCG at Screening and Baseline, or breastfeeding. [12] Hypersensitivity to the active substance or any of the excipients of the eribulin drug product, or dacarbazine (please refer to the dacarbazine prescribing information). [13] Any medical or other condition which, in the opinion of the PI or designee, will preclude participation in a clinical trial.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To compare overall survival (OS) in subjects with advanced soft tissue sarcoma ([STS], one of two subtypes: adipocytic [ADI] or leiomyosarcoma [LMS]) when treated with eribulin (Arm A) or dacarbazine (Arm B).;Secondary Objective: [1] To compare progression-free survival (PFS) between Arm A and Arm B. [2] To compare progression-free rate at Week 12 (PFR12wks) between Arm A and Arm B. [3] To compare the clinical benefit rate ([CBR], complete response (CR), or partial response (PR), or durable stable disease ([dSD] duration of stable disease (SD) = 11 weeks) between Arm A and Arm B. [4] To compare the safety and tolerability between Arm A and Arm B. [5] To characterize the population pharmacokinetics (PK) of eribulin in subjects with STS. ;Primary end point(s): Overall survival, measured from the date of randomization until date of death from any cause. Subjects who are lost to follow-up and the subjects who are alive at the date of data cut-off will be censored at the date the subject was last known alive.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: When the target number of events (estimated to be 353 deaths) has been observed | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): [1] Progression-free survival, defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of disease progression, or date of death (whichever occurs first). Progression free survival censoring rules will apply, and will be defined in the SAP. [2] Progression-free rate at Week 12, defined as the proportion of subjects alive and progression-free at 12 weeks from the date of randomization. [3] Clinical Benefit Rate, the proportion of subjects who have best overall response of CR or PR or dSD.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: When the target number of events (estimated to be 353 deaths) has been observed | — |
