Background:
- Mithramycin is a drug that was first tested as a cancer therapy in the 1960s. It acted
against some forms of cancer, but was never accepted as a treatment. Research suggests that
it may be useful against some solid tumors, particularly Ewing sarcoma. Researchers want to
see if mithramycin can be used to treat solid tumors in children and adults. It will be
tested in different groups of people, including those with a type of Ewing sarcoma that
contains a chemical called Ewings sarcoma - friend leukemia integration 1 transcription
factor (EWS-FLI1).
Objectives:
- To see if mithramycin is safe and effective against solid tumors and Ewing sarcoma in
children and adults.
Eligibility:
- Children and young adults between 1 and 17 years of age with solid tumors that have not
responded to standard treatment.
- Adults at least 18 years of age with EWS-FLI1 Ewing sarcoma that has not responded to
standard treatment.
- Children and young adults between 1 and 17 years of age with EWS-FLI1 Ewing sarcoma that
has not responded to standard treatment.
Design:
- Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and urine
samples will be collected. Imaging studies and tumor tissue samples will be used to
monitor the cancer before treatment. Individuals with solid brain tumors will not be
eligible.
- Participants will receive mithramycin every day for 7 days, followed by 14 days without
treatment. Each 28-day round of treatment is called a cycle.
- Treatment will be monitored with frequent blood tests and imaging studies.
- Participants will continue to take the drug for as long as the side effects are not
severe and the tumor responds to treatment.

Other | Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) | Hematologic DLT was defined as any grade 4 neutropenia (<500/µL) or thrombocytopenia (<25,000/µL) refractory to platelet transfusion, any grade 2 bleeding not promptly (within 6 h of appropriate intervention) corrected with blood product support. Non-hematologic DLT's were any mithramycin-related grade =3 toxicity with the exception of grade 3 nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea that was controlled by symptomatic treatment within 72h, asymptomatic grade 3 elevation of serum transaminases that return to =grade 1 within 14 days of completing mithramycin administration, and asymptomatic electrolyte abnormalities that are correctable to grade2 or less within 48h. | Cycle 1 of therapy (or 28 days) | |
Primary | Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Mithramycin | The MTD will be the maximum dose at which fewer than one-third of patients experience Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) (i.e., non-hematologic toxicity and hematologic toxicity) during cycle 1 (or 28 days) of therapy. | Cycle 1 of therapy (or 28 days) | |
Primary | Number of Participants With Serious and Non-serious Adverse Events | Here is the number of participants with serious and non-serious adverse events. For a detailed list of serious and non-serious adverse events see the adverse event module. | 95 days | |
Secondary | Objective Response Rate (Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR)) | Objective response in children and adolescents with Ewings sarcoma - friend leukemia integration 1 transcription factor to mithramycin is defined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. Complete response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions. Partial response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions. | 1-2 months | |
Secondary | Time to Progression (TTP) | TTP is defined as the number of days from enrollment until disease progression, death because of treatment complications, resection of measureable tumor, or last patient follow-up, whichever comes first, assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Complete response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions. Partial response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions. Progressive disease (PD) is at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progressions). Stable disease (SD) is neither shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD. | At date of progression, an average of 56 days | |
Secondary | Count of Participants With NR0B1 Expression in Tumor Biopsies | Biopsies were to be obtained in adult patients who have disease that could be safely biopsied. | Pre-treatment and day 4 (+/- 1 day) | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With a Change in Tumor Burden Measured by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) | Measurable disease were to be quantified using volumetric magnetic resonance imaging analysis per the RECIST, measuring soft tissue disease. Changes in the largest diameter (unidimensional measurement) of the tumor lesions and the shortest diameter in the case of malignant lymph nodes. Complete response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Partial response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions. Progressive disease (PD) is at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progressions). Stable disease (SD) is neither shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD. | =4 weeks from baseline | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With a Change in Tumor Burden Measured by the World Health Organization (WHO) Criteria | Per the WHO criteria, progressive disease is a 25% increase in tumor lesions, or the appearance of any new measureable or non-measureable tumor lesions. Partial response is =50% decrease in tumor lesions. Complete response is disappearance of all tumor lesions. Stable disease is 50% decrease in tumor lesions compared to baseline, nor 25% increase compared with nadir. | =4 weeks from baseline | |
