Trial of TRC105 and Pazopanib Versus Pazopanib Alone in Patients With Advanced Angiosarcoma (TAPPAS)

This is an interventional treatment trial for Advanced Angiosarcoma focused on measuring angiosarcoma Read More

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Histologically-confirmed angiosarcoma that is not amenable to curative intent surgery (e.g., metastatic or bulky disease and disease for which surgical resection would carry an unacceptable risk to the patient). Pathology report will be reviewed by sponsor prior to randomization.
2. Documented progression on or following most recent systemic chemotherapy regimen (not required for chemotherapy-naïve patients), within 4 months prior to screening
3. Measurable disease by RECIST v1.1
4. Age of 18 years or older; in addition, patients age 12 to 17 years may enroll beginning in Cohort 2 if weight ≥ 40 kg
5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 1
6. Resolution of all acute AEs resulting from prior cancer therapies to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.03 (NCI CTCAE v4.03) grade ≤ 1 or to that patient's pre-study baseline (except alopecia or neuropathy)
7. Adequate organ function
8. Willingness and ability to consent (and assent if under age 18) for self to participate in study
9. Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures
10. Angiosarcoma tumor specimen, if available
11. Men who are sterile (including vasectomy confirmed by post vasectomy semen analysis) OR agree to use a condom with spermicide (refer to Section 2.6.1.3) and to not donate sperm during the study and for at least 180 days following last dose of TRC105 or pazopanib
12. Woman of non-child bearing potential due to surgical sterilization (at least 6 weeks following surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy or tubal ligation) confirmed by medical history or menopause (i.e., no menstrual bleeding for more than 12 months in a women aged 45 years or more), OR woman of child bearing potential who test negative for pregnancy at time of enrollment based on serum pregnancy test and agree to use at least 2 acceptable methods of birth control, one of which must be highly effective, during the study and for at least 180 days after stopping TRC105 or pazopanib

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Prior treatment with TRC105
2. Prior treatment with any VEGF inhibitor
3. More than two prior lines (may be combination regimens) of chemotherapy for angiosarcoma (neoadjuvant/adjuvant treatment does not count as a line of treatment)
4. Current treatment or participation on another therapeutic clinical trial
5. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding
6. Receipt of systemic anticancer therapy, including investigational agents, within 5 times the agent's elimination half-life of starting study treatment
7. Major surgical procedure or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks prior to randomization and must have fully recovered from any such procedure or injury; planned surgery (if applicable) or the anticipated need for a major surgical procedure within the next six months. Note: the following are not considered to be major procedures and are permitted up to 7 days before randomization: Thoracentesis, paracentesis, port placement, laparoscopy, thoracoscopy, tube thoracostomy, bronchoscopy, endoscopic ultrasonographic procedures, mediastinoscopy, skin biopsies, and imaging-guided biopsy for diagnostic purposes
8. Patients who have received wide field radiotherapy ≤ 28 days (defined as > 50% of volume of pelvic bones or equivalent) or limited field radiation for palliation < 14 days prior to randomization
9. Uncontrolled hypertension defined as systolic > 150 or diastolic > 100 mm Hg on the average of the 3 most recent BP readings. Anti-hypertensives may be started prior to randomization.
10. Ascites or pleural effusion requiring intervention or that required intervention or recurred within three months prior to randomization
11. Pericardial effusion (except trace effusion identified by echocardiogram) within three months prior to randomization
12. History of brain involvement with cancer, spinal cord compression, or carcinomatous meningitis, or new evidence of brain or leptomeningeal disease. Patients with radiated or resected lesions are permitted, provided the lesions are fully treated and inactive, patients are asymptomatic, and no steroids have been administered for at least 28 days prior to randomization
13. Angina, myocardial infarction, symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack, arterial embolism , pulmonary embolism, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) within 6 months prior to randomization. Deep venous thrombosis within 3 months prior to randomization unrelated to a central venous catheter, unless the patient is anti-coagulated without the use of warfarin for at least 2 weeks prior to randomization. In this situation, low molecular weight heparin is preferred
14. Active bleeding or pathologic condition that carries a high risk of bleeding (e.g., hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia). Patients with bleeding cutaneous lesions not actively requiring transfusions are eligible. Patients who have been uneventfully anti-coagulated with low molecular weight heparin are eligible
15. Hemoptysis (> ½ teaspoon [2.5 mL] of bright red blood) within 6 months prior to randomization
16. Thrombolytic use (except to maintain i.v. catheters) within 10 days prior to randomization
17. Known active viral or nonviral hepatitis or cirrhosis
18. Peptic ulcer within the past 3 months prior to randomization, unless treated for the condition and complete resolution has been documented by esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD)
19. Presence of tumor(s) invading into the heart or great vessels (including carotid artery) or another location where bleeding is associated with high morbidity including patients with primary cardiac or great vessel angiosarcoma
20. Gastrointestinal perforation or fistula in the 6 months prior to randomization unless underlying risk has been resolved (e.g., through surgical resection or repair)
21. Presence of a malabsorption syndrome, gastrointestinal disorder, or gastrointestinal surgery that could affect the absorption of pazopanib
22. History of prior malignancy except adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer or adequately treated, with curative intent, cancer from which the patient is currently in complete remission per Investigator's judgment; patients with history of breast cancer and no evidence of disease on hormonal therapy to prevent recurrence and patients with prostate cancer on adjuvant hormonal therapy with undetectable PSA are eligible
23. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) related illness
24. Active infection that requires systemic treatment
25. Concurrent use or receipt of a strong CYP3A4 inducer within 12 days prior to randomization or a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor within 7 days prior to randomization (see Table 10)
26. History of severe hypersensitivity reaction to any monoclonal antibody
27. Other severe acute or chronic medical (including bone marrow suppressive diseases) or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation, impede the ability of the patient to complete all protocol-specified activities, or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the Investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for this study
