Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

"Sirolimus" and "Hydroxychloroquine"

Arm Description

Subjects will take Sirolimus at an initial dose of 2mg followed by dose adjustment to keep Sirolimus trough levels between 5-15ng/ml consistent with the effective dose in the MILES trial. In addition to Sirolimus subjects will receive Hydroxychloroquine at 200 mg daily for 6 months. Once safety is established at the lower dose ("Sirolimus" and "Hydroxychloroquine" 200 mg), subjects enrolled henceforth will receive Sirolimus and Hydroxychloroquine 400 mg (200 mg twice a day) for 6 months.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Safety of Combination Therapy With Sirolimus and Hydroxychloroquine in LAM Patients
The Primary endpoint of this study was safety. Safety was assessed based on the adverse events and serious adverse events that occurred in these patients when they were on this combination therapy. Percentage of adverse events in each system at a dose was calculated from the total adverse events at that dose. Subjects were closely monitored and adverse events were classified and graded according to the "Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, (CTCAE) Version 4.0".

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Specific Aim 1: To investigate whether, in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) patients, the combination of sirolimus and hydroxychloroquine is safe and well tolerated Specific Aim 2: To investigate whether, in LAM patients, 6 months of combination therapy with sirolimus and hydroxychloroquine results in improvement of indicators of disease, and whether the gains are sustained after stopping therapy. Specific Aim 3: To investigate the potential role of a LAM-specific peripheral blood signature to predict rates of disease progression and determine responsiveness to combination therapy. This will be a phase I dose escalation study of the combination of sirolimus (2 mg adjusted to keep trough levels between 5-15 ng/ml) and hydroxychloroquine (200 mg or 400 mg) taken orally daily. Up to 18 adult women with LAM will be enrolled.
Detailed Description
This will be a phase I dose escalation study of the combination of sirolimus (2 mg adjusted to keep trough levels between 5-15 ng/ml) and hydroxychloroquine (200 mg or 400 mg) taken orally daily for 6 months. The study is to be conducted at 2 sites. Up to 18 adult women with LAM will be enrolled, and each recruiting site will recruit between 8-12 subjects. The protocol will use the following eligibility criteria.
