Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of single agent pazopanib in subjects with unresectable or metastatic liposarcoma.

Detailed description

This is a Phase II, multicenter, prospective, open label, single arm study. The primary endpoint of the study is progression-free rate as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines version 1.1 at week 12 after start of treatment. The secondary endpoints include overall progression-free survival (PFS), response rate (RR), duration of response, overall survival (OS), and toxicity assessment through the reporting of adverse events.

Interventions

DRUGpazopanib

Pazopanib 800 mg orally once daily will be started on Cycle 1 Day 1 and will be administered continuously for a 28-day cycle. Study treatment may continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Exclusion criteria

* Well differentiated liposarcoma. * Prior treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors. * Prior malignancy (Note: subjects who have had another malignancy and have been disease-free for 3 years, or subjects with a history of completely resected non-melanomatous skin carcinoma or successfully treated in situ carcinoma are eligible). * History or clinical evidence of central nervous system metastases or leptomeningeal carcinomatosis, unless previously treated, asymptomatic, and off steroids and anti-seizure medication for 6 months prior to first dose of study drug * Clinically significant gastrointestinal (GI) abnormalities that may increase the risk for GI bleeding. * Clinically significant GI abnormalities that may affect absorption of investigational product. * Presence of uncontrolled infection. * Corrected QT interval \> 480 msecs using Bazett's formula. * History of certain cardiovascular conditions within the past 6 months. * Poorly controlled hypertension \[defined as systolic blood pressure of \> or = 140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \> or = 90 mmHg\]. * History of cerebrovascular accident including transient ischemic attack, pulmonary embolism, or untreated deep vein thrombosis within the past 6 months. * Prior major surgery or trauma within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug and/or presence of any non-healing wound, fracture, or ulcer. * Evidence of active bleeding or bleeding diathesis. * Known endobronchial lesions and/or lesions infiltrating major pulmonary vessels that increase the risk of pulmonary hemorrhage. * Hemoptysis in excess of 2.5 mL within 8 weeks of first dose of study drug. * Any serious and/or unstable pre-existing medical, psychiatric, or other condition that could interfere with subject's safety, provision of informed consent, or compliance to study procedures. * Unable or unwilling to discontinue use of prohibited medications for at least 14 days or five half-lives of a drug, whichever is longer, prior to the first dose of study drug and for the duration of study treatment. * Radiation therapy, minor surgery, tumor embolization, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy, investigational therapy, or hormonal therapy within 14 days or five half-lives of a drug (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study drug. * Administration of any non-oncologic investigational drug within 30 days or five half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to receiving the first dose of study drug. * Any ongoing toxicity from prior anti-cancer therapy that is \> Grade 1 and/or that is progressing in severity, except alopecia. * Known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction to idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically realted to pazopanib or excipients that contraindicates participation.

Design outcomes

MeasureTime frameDescription
12-week Progression Free RateAssessed after 12 weeks of study treatmentProgression will be as defined per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines version 1.1. Subjects who remain under observation and progression free at 12 weeks will be defined as treatment successes. Subjects who progress per RECIST by 12 weeks or who drop out without evidence of progression prior to 12 weeks will be defined as treatment failures.Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1), as a \>=20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of \>=1 new lesion.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression Free Survival (PFS)Date of Consent until progression or death, up to 27 monthsPFS was measured from date of consent until the subject experiences disease progression (assessed approximately every 12 weeks) or death, whichever came first, up to 27 months. Repeat radiologic imaging will be conducted after every 3 cycles of treatment (approximately every 12 weeks) to evaluate disease status per RECIST v1.1. Subjects who discontinue study treatment for reasons other than disease progression will continue to have their disease status reported every 3 months post end of treatment up to 27 months.
Best Overall ResponseDate of consent until end of study treatment, up to 32 monthsBest overall response is defined as the best response across all time points. Repeat radiologic imaging was conducted after every 3 cycles of treatment (approximately every 12 weeks). Response was evaluated using RECIST v1.1 guidelines, where complete response (CR) is the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; partial response (PR) is \>=30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions; progressive disease (PD) is \>=20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of \>=1 new lesion; stable disease (SD) is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD.
Duration of ResponseMeasure of the amount of time that the criteria for response per RECIST are first met until disease progressionResponse is defined as Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) per RECIST v1.1. Repeat radiologic imaging will be conducted after every 3 cycles of treatment (approximately every 12 weeks) to evaluate disease status per RECIST v1.1. Confirmation of CR or PR is required by repeat scans that should be performed 4 weeks after the criteria for response are first met.

Best Overall Response

Best overall response is defined as the best response across all time points. Repeat radiologic imaging was conducted after every 3 cycles of treatment (approximately every 12 weeks).

Duration of Response

Response is defined as Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) per RECIST v1.1. Repeat radiologic imaging will be conducted after every 3 cycles of treatment (approximately every 12 weeks) to evaluate disease status per RECIST v1.1. Confirmation of CR or PR is required by repeat scans that should be performed 4 weeks after the criteria for response are first met.

Time frame: Measure of the amount of time that the criteria for response per RECIST are first met until disease progression

Population: Since so few patients experienced a response, the pre-specified endpoint of duration of response was not analyzed.
