A phase II Study on Efficacy and Tolerability of Weekly Doxorubicin in Elderly Patients with Advanced or Metastatic Leiomyosarcoma of Soft Tissue

Determine the efficacy of treatment with weekly doxorubicin chemotherapy in anthracycline-naïve elderly patients with advanced or metastatic LMS of soft tissue.


Why this Research Matters

This is an open-label, non-randomized, single-institution, single arm Phase II study conducted using a TOP design with 1 interim futility look at 10 patients (50% of enrollment). The overall objective is to determine the efficacy of weekly low dose doxorubicin. We will estimate the progression-free survival rate at 12 weeks (PFS12w) of doxorubicin in comparison to the historical PFS12w with standard dose doxorubicin monotherapy, calculated as the mean from two large, randomized Phase 3 clinical trials (21, 22)


Who can Participate

Adult

-Have a histological diagnosis of advanced or metastatic soft tissue leiomyosarcoma (LMS) (by local pathology review), not curable by surgery, for which treatment with weekly doxorubicin is deemed appropriate by the investigator. -Have received 0 to 4 prior systemic therapies for metastatic sarcoma and NO prior anthracyclines. Re-treatment with the same drug or regimen after interruption (i.e. chemotherapy holiday) is not considered a new line of treatment, and those patients are eligible.
