Trial Outcomes & Findings for Phase I/II Study of Irinotecan and Temsirolimus in Patients With Refractory Sarcomas (NCT NCT00996346)

NCT ID: NCT00996346

Last Updated: 2015-09-01

Results Overview

The MTD is the dose preceding that at which at least 2 out of 3 patients in the treatment group experience a dose limiting toxicity (DLT). DLT is defined as grade 3 neutropenia on retreatment day, a grade 4 febrile neutropenia, a drug-related grade 3 or 4 non-hematologic toxicity (except fatigue, nausea, vomiting or grade 3 hypersensitivity reaction) or a grade 2 or greater motor or sensory neuropathy

Measure
Irinotecan&Temsirolimus:All Arms
n=17 Participants
Data from the dose escalation in all three arms is used to calculate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). In all three arms, Irinotecan and temsirolimus will be repeated weekly x 3 doses followed by one week of rest. One course will be four weeks. The treatment consists of: Irinotecan at 50 - 80 mg/m2 weekly, for three weeks + Temsirolimus at 15 - 25 mg weekly, for three weeks. The specific doses of Irinotecan are 50, 65, or 80 mg/m2 The specific doses of Temsirolimus are 15, 20, or 25 mg
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Irinotecan
80 milligrams/meter squared
