Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary aim of the study is to find the optimal dose of a combination of niraparib and temozolomide or irinotecan that can safely be given to patients with relapsed Ewing sarcoma (the maximum tolerated dose) and what side effects limit the doses we can give (dose limiting toxicities). ;Secondary Objective: - Tumour response rate (how much the tumour/s shrink on scans) - Progression free survival (how long it takes for tumour/s to grow) - Investigate how the drug combination affects the tumour and blood cells - Evaluate expression of genes and proteins in tumour cells;Primary end point(s): The primary outcome measure is the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of niraparib and temozolomide (Arm 1) and noraparib and irinotecan (Arm 2).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Patients will have blood tests every 3 days for first cycle and clinical assessment including history examination and vital signs weekly to assess for dose-limiting toxicities in order to determine the maximum tolerated dose..

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1. Tumour response rate (per RECIST 1.1) of patients with ES treated with niraparib and TMZ or Irinitecan. 2. Progression free survival (PFS), duration of response, and 4- and 6-month PFS rate of patients treated with niraparib and TMZ or Irinotecan. 3. Evaluation of pharmacodynamic markers of response to PARP inhibition in combination with TMZ or Irinotecan including measurement of PAR, ?H2Ax induction and other markers of DNA repair and DNA damage. 4.Evaluation and comparison of expression of candidate metastasis-associated genes and proteins in paired samples obtained from primary and relapsed tumors including CXCR4, MKL1, MKL2 and LGR5. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. Tumour response will be radiologically assessed every 2 cycles for the first 6 cycles, then every 3 cycles. 2. PFS and duration of response will be calculated every 8-12 weeks on the basis of radiological assessment. 3. Blood samples will be taken to evaluate PD markers at seven time points according to the protocol. Tumour samples will be taken pre-treatment, on treatment on Cycle 2 Day 8 as well as at the end of the treatment (optional). 4. This will be evaluated comparing archival tumour samples and biopsy tissue sample on study entry.
