About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus Syndrome focused on measuring Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus Syndrome, Venous Malformation, Rapamycin (sirolimus), Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, Treatment

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients diagnosed with BRBNS, VMCM, sporadic multiple VM, or large single VM;
  • Age and gender are not limited;
  • Physical status ECOG 0~3;
  • Organ function is good, biochemical examination meets the following conditions: AST ≤ 2.5 × upper limit of normal value (ULN), ALT ≤ 2.5 × upper limit of normal value (ULN), serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal value (ULN), creatinine ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN);
  • Patients volunteer to participate in the trial and sign the informed consent form by the participant or his/her legal guardian.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients need emergency surgery due to intestinal obstruction, intussusception, or gastrointestinal bleeding;
  • History of surgery within 1 month;
  • allergic to rapamycin;
  • Any disease or condition that may affect the study implementation or result interpretation, including: known hemoglobinopathy, suffering from gastrointestinal infections at the same time, severe heart, liver, kidney and other serious concomitant diseases that may endanger lives
  • Pregnant or lactating women;
  • Alcohol or drugs (eg, laxatives) abusers;

  • Being believed not suitable to be enrolled by the investigator for other reasons.

Exit Criteria:

  • The patient requests withdrawal: at his own discretion or at the request of his legal representative. Subjects may refuse to participate in further studies at any time without reasons. Subjects will not be affected because of such decision.
  • Subjects are required to withdraw from the study in certain special circumstances (eg, there is significant issues of compliance, safety, or surgical intervention for the disease)
  • Other situations in which the study must be terminated. For example, the investigators believe that continuing the study may be harmful to the health of subjects.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Rapamycin

Arm Description

For children: rapamycin, 1 mg per square meter of body surface area a day, orally, for at least 6 months For adults: rapamycin, 2 mg a day, orally, for at least 6 months

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Total venous malformation lesion load
lesion load (cm2) = A + B + C. A = sum of the product of maximum diameter and maximum height of the largest 3 lesions shown by chest, abdomen and pelvis MRI or small bowel CT reconstruction (in cm2) B = sum of the product of maximum diameter and maximum height of the largest 3 lesions shown by digestive endoscope (in cm2) C = sum of the product of maximum diameter and maximum height of the largest 3 lesions shown by ultrasound (in cm2) Remarks: 1. If it is impossible to evaluate 3 or more lesions, results of the actual number of lesions should be taken as valid; 2. Lesions evaluated should be correspondent before and after treatment. If the lesion is difficult to assess after treatment, it should be ruled out from the assessment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Amount of daily oral iron supplements
The value indicates the amount of gastrointestinal bleeding.
Concentration of hemoglobin in blood
The value indicates the amount of gastrointestinal bleeding.
Frequency of blood transfusion
The value indicates the amount of gastrointestinal bleeding
Concentration of D-dimer in blood
The value indicates the extent of local coagulation caused by Venous Malformation lesions.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
A prospective, nonrandomized, open-label, single-arm clinical trial to study efficacy of rapamycin (sirolimus) in the treatment of Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus Syndrome, hereditary or sporadic venous malformation
Detailed Description
Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) and venous malformation are mainly caused by somatic mutation of TEK and PIK3CA, which activates the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. As an important protein kinase downstream of the PI3K/AKT pathway, mTOR can serve as a potential therapeutic target for BRBNS. Experiments of mice have shown that rapamycin inhibited the progression of venous malformation lesions. There are a few human cases reported using rapamycin treatment. The investigator's study is designed to be a prospective, nonrandomized, open-label, single-arm clinical trial to investigate its efficacy and safety.
