Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is for adult subjects with advanced tissue sarcoma. The study involves the drugs Pazopanib (Votrient), Gemcitabine (Gemzar), and Docetaxel (Taxotere). The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness and safety of Gemcitabine and Pazopanib compared with Gemcitabine and Docetaxel in participants with soft tissue sarcoma.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Gemcitabine and Pazopanib
  • Drug: Gemcitabine and Docetaxel
Phase 2

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness and safety of Gemcitabine and Pazopanib compared with Gemcitabine and Docetaxel in participants with soft tissue sarcoma. Screening tests will be done to ensure subjects are eligible to participate in this study. If the exams, tests and procedures show that subjects can be in the study, and they choose to take part, then they will be "randomized" into one of the two study groups: Group 1 or Group 2. Subjects in Group 1 will receive Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 intravenously (directly into a vein) on Day 1 and Day 8 and Pazopanib 800mg by mouth daily. Subjects in Group 2 will receive Gemcitabine 900 mg/m2 intravenously on Day 1 and Day 8 and Docetaxel 100 mg/m2 intravenously on Day 8. Both groups will be in 21 day cycles. Both groups will be asked to complete "quality of life" questionnaires, on their first visit, then at 6 weeks (2nd cycle), 18 weeks (6th cycle) and at the end of study treatment. Subjects will be followed for up to 2 years.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Average Number of Months of Progression-free Survival [minimum of 18 months]

    To estimate the PFS of the combination of G+P or G+T in patients with metastatic and/or locally advanced or recurrent STS. Progression free survival is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression or death, whichever occurs first.

  2. Rate of Participants With Grade 3 or Higher Toxicity [30 days post end of treatment]

    Toxicity is graded according to the CTCAE v 4.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Hazard Ratio [minimum of 18 months]

    Hazard ratio is defined as the rate of survival in the experimental group versus the standard of care group. A hazard ratio of greater than one or less than one means that survival was better in one of the groups.

  2. Average Score of Quality of Life [Baseline, Cycle 2, Cycle 6 and End of Treatment]

    To estimate the quality of life of patient with metastatic an/or locally advanced recurrent STS using the Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ-C30). The QLQ-C30 is scored on a scale from 0-100 with "0" indicating "never" and "100" indicating "always" in regard the the participants' experience of fatigue, nausea/vomiting, pain, disponae, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, financial concerns at 4 time points through the study.

  3. Response Rate [minimum of 18 months]

    Response rate is defined as follows: Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study

5. Secondary Outcome
Title Response Rate
Description Response rate is defined as follows: Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study
Time Frame minimum of 18 months

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
[Not Specified]
Arm/Group Title Experimental Standard of Care
Arm/Group Description Patients in Group 1 will get Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 intravenously on Day 1 and Day 8 and Pazopanib 800mg by mouth daily on a 21 day cycle. Cycles will continue until disease progression or patient withdrawal. Gemcitabine and Pazopanib: Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 by IV on day 1 and day 8 of a 21 day cycle. Pazopanib 800 mg by oral tablet daily for a 21 day cycle. Patients in Group 2 will get Gemcitabine 900 mg/m2 intravenously on Day 1 and Day 8. Additionally on Day 8, patients will have Docetaxel 100 mg/m2 given intravenously. on a 21 day cycle. If disease progression occurs on this treatment, patients will have the option to receive treatment with Gemcitabine and Pazopanib (group 1). Gemcitabine and Docetaxel: Gemcitabine 900 mg/m2 by IV on day 1 and day 8 of a 21 day cycle. Docetaxel 100 mg/m2 by IV on day 8 of a 21 day cycle.
