Clinical Trial Summary

This early phase I trial studies how well glucarpidase works in reducing toxicity in patients with osteosarcoma receiving high dose methotrexate treatment. Glucarpidase may reduce the levels of methotrexate in patients' blood and lead to shorter hospitalizations and a reduction in toxicities.

Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To determine the rate of completion of 4 planned high dose methotrexate (HDMTX) doses when glucarpidase is administered after each dose. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To assess the length of hospital stay (LOS) associated with methotrexate (MTX) clearance following administration of glucarpidase 24 hours after HDMTX. II. To assess the LOS associated with all causes following administration of glucarpidase 24 hours after HDMTX. III. To assess the impact of glucarpidase administration on HDMTX efficacy. IV. To assess the safety and tolerability of 4 doses of HDMTX administered with glucarpidase in an adult osteosarcoma population. V. To assess the efficacy of glucarpidase flat dose of 1,000 units. OUTLINE: Patients receive standard of care HDMTX intravenously (IV) over 4 hours on day 1 of weeks 4, 5, 9, and 10. After 24 and 48 hours after the start of each HDMTX infusion, patients also receive glucarpidase IV over 5 minutes in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 32 weeks.

• Participants must be willing to use appropriate contraception for the duration of study treatment and four months after completing HDMTX therapy.
• Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Malignant disease, other than those being treated in this study. Exceptions to this

exclusion include the following:

• Malignancies that were treated curatively and have not recurred within 2 years after completion of treatment;
• Completely resected basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers;
• Any malignancy considered to be indolent and that has never required therapy;
• Completely resected carcinoma in situ of any type.
• Participants with rapidly progressive disease or organ dysfunction that would prevent them from receiving planned HDMTX treatment regimen.
• Previous MTX treatment at doses >= 3 g/m^2.
• Previous treatment with glucarpidase.
• Known clinically significant liver disease defined as ongoing drug-induced liver injury, chronic active hepatitis C (HCV), chronic active hepatitis B (HBV), alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, extrahepatic obstruction caused by cholelithiasis, cirrhosis of the liver, portal hypertension, or history of autoimmune hepatitis. Patients who have completed curative therapy for HCV are eligible. Patients with known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection are eligible.
• Participants with a history of hypersensitivity reactions to study agent or its excipients.
• Participants with a history of hypersensitivity to Escherichia (E.)coli-derived proteins.
• Participants with large pleural or ascitic fluid collection.
• Participant is pregnant or breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the trial, starting with the screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of trial treatment.
• Uncontrolled intercurrent illness, or psychiatric illness/social situations that, in the opinion of the investigator, would limit compliance with study requirement, substantially increase risk of incurring AEs or compromise the ability of the patient to give written informed consent.
• Unable or unwilling to discontinue use of agents that interact significantly with methotrexate metabolism or excretion.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Proportion of subjects completing 4 planned doses of high dose methotrexate (HDMTX)	Will be estimated with an exact 95% confidence interval (CI).	Time from first dose of HDMTX to time of last dose of HDMTX (week 10)
Secondary	Length of hospital stay (LOS) for methotrexate (MTX) clearance		Time of start of MTX administration to time of MTX =< 0.1uM sample collection for each planned MTX infusion (up to 15 days)
Secondary	LOS for all causes (excluding MTX-related AEs)		Date of admission for each planned MTX infusion to date of discharge for each planned MTX infusion (up to 15 days)
Secondary	Length of hospital stay (LOS) for methotrexate (MTX)-related adverse events (AEs)		Date of admission for each planned MTX infusion to date of discharge for each planned MTX infusion (up to 15 days)
Secondary	Percent treatment effect at resection	Defined as an admixture of degenerating wispy osteoid matrix with empty lacunae, necrotic ghost cells, and edematous stroma with loose fibrous tissue. Dense fibrosis or hyalinization or sheets of sclerotic acellular osteoid may also be present. These features are quantified by estimating the percentage of each parameter in each tumor slide and calculating the mean based on the total number of tumor slides examined. The percentage of tumor necrosis or treatment effect will be recorded from each participant's surgical pathology report.	From start of surgery until end of surgery

Secondary	Proportion of glucarpidase doses (flat dose) that result in MTX serum concentration reduction of >= 97% from hour 24 to hour 24.5	Will be presented along with 95% confidence intervals. Summary statistics will be reported on the efficacy analysis set with sub-analyses stratified by glucarpidase dose.	From first dose of glucarpidase to end of study treatment (week 10)
Secondary	Proportion of glucarpidase doses (flat dose) that result in 48 hour serum MTX level < 1 uM	Will be presented along with 95% confidence intervals. Summary statistics will be reported on the efficacy analysis set with sub-analyses stratified by glucarpidase dose.	From first dose of glucarpidase to end of study treatment (week 10)
