Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this trial is to explore the preliminary efficacy of Chiauranib monotherapy in patients with advanced or unresectable soft tissue sarcoma who failed standard therapy, and the safety of Chiauranib monotherapy in patients with advanced or unresectable soft tissue sarcoma who failed standard therapy and the relationship between potential biomarkers and preliminary efficacy.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Chiauranib has not yet been approved for marketing at home and abroad. It is a small-molecule anti-tumor targeted drug targeting multiple protein kinases. It has a three-way anti-tumor synergistic mechanism, including anti-tumor angiogenesis, inhibiting tumor cell mitosis, and regulating tumor inflammatory microenvironment, and exerts a comprehensive anti-tumor effect; at the same time, its high target selectivity also reduces the risk of Risk of side effects from off-target effects.

Chiauranib has shown preliminary anti-tumor effects in multiple tumor types clinically, among which, two tumor types, small cell lung cancer and ovarian cancer, have entered phase III clinical studies. Drugs with similar mechanisms of action, pazopanib, regorafenib, anlotinib, apatinib (VEGFR, etc.) and Alisertib (targeting Aurora A, etc.) single-agents have demonstrated certain anti-tumor activity in STS patients , which provides a certain reference for Chiauranib.

The trial used a single-arm, open-label, multicenter design to explore the preliminary efficacy and safety of Chiauranib in patients with advanced or unresectable soft tissue sarcoma who had failed standard therapy. If a subtype or several subtypes are found to have better efficacy, or if the biomarker study suggests a relationship with the initial efficacy, further research in specific subtypes will be considered after discussion between the investigator and the sponsor. The whole experimental study includes three phases: screening period, treatment period and follow-up period.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Chiauranib

All patients were treated with Chiauranib capsules, 50 mg (2 capsules), orally every morning on an empty stomach, once a day, continuously. The drug was taken until tumor progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, loss to follow-up, or the end of the trial (whichever occurred first).

Drug: Chiauranib
All subjects were treated with Chiauranib capsules, 50 mg (2 capsules), orally every morning on an empty stomach, once a day, continuously. The drug was taken until tumor progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, loss to follow-up, or the end of the trial (whichever occurred first).

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression-free survival rate at 12 weeks (PFR 12w) [84 days]

      The proportion of subjects who did not experience disease progression or relapse (according to RECIST 1.1 criteria) or death from any cause at 12 weeks after receiving the drug.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Objective response rate (ORR) [270 days]

      According to the RECIST1.1 criteria, the sum of subjects with complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) in response to efficacy accounted for the proportion of the total population in the analysis set.

    2. Progression-free survival (PFS) [270 days]

      The length of time from the first drug to the occurrence of disease progression or relapse (according to RECIST1.1 criteria) or death from any cause (whichever occurs first). PFS data were collected until the end of the trial as specified in this protocol.

    3. Disease control rate (DCR) [270 days]

      According to RECIST1.1 criteria, the proportion of subjects who achieved CR, PR and SD (at least at the planned first efficacy assessment) The proportion of the total number of people in the analysis set.

    4. Overall survival (OS) [270 days]

      The time from the first medication to death from any cause. OS data were collected until the end of the trial as specified in this protocol.

    5. Number of participants with abnormal laboratory values and/or adverse events that are related to treatment [270 days]

      Frequency and severity of adverse events, changes in various vital signs, physical examination and laboratory indicators. The severity of adverse events was judged according to CTCAE 5.0 criteria.

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Gene alterations/protein expression [270 days]

      Exploring gene alterations or protein expression related with PFR 12w, ORR, PFS, etc.
