Clinical Trial Summary

Determine the objective response rate in sarcoma patients treated with hydroxychloroquine and sirolimus.

Description:

This study evaluates the daily morning single dose of hydroxychloroquine /sirolimus combined therapy in sarcoma patients. Study arm were treated with hydroxychloroquine 400 mg /sirolimus 2mg gd for 8-wk therapy. Patients will be discontinued from the study after 8-wk observation period.

Patients must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for enrollment into the study.

TREATMENT PLAN:

1. Both hydroxychloroquine 200 mg/tab and sirolimus 1 mg/tab are pills each are taken 2 tablet orally every day. Treatment will be divided into time periods called cycles. Each treatment cycle is 28 days. The exception to this 28 day cycle is when participants start taking the pills for the first time. When the hydroxychloroquine and sirolimus begins, the first cycle of 28 days begins.

2. There are several tests and procedures that will be performed at specific time periods during protocol treatment. These include: blood work, performance status assessment, questions about medical history and medications, tumor assessment with PET/CT or MRI and, eye exams.

3. Dose modification criteria:

Participants may continue to receive study treatment as long as they experienced grade 1 or 2 side effects. The treatment drug will be 50% reduction of dose in any grade 3 toxicity; and discontinued of treatment (off-study) in any grade 4 toxicity or disease progression during treatment.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	The Maximum Standardized Uptake Values (SUVmax) Change on PET/CT Scan	A baseline whole-body [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose(FDG) PET was performed before therapy initiation. Patients received 1 mg of Rapa and 200 mg of HCQ twice a day before a meal for 2 weeks. A second [18F]-FDG PET was performed after treatment completion. SUVs were calculated for all lesions. Regions of interest (ROI) were contoured to represent tumors (>2 cm) and organs (lungs, spleen, and liver) on all transaxial and coronal slices. ROIs were normalized for injection dose and body weight, and the maximum voxel value was recorded for each region or organ. The highest SUV measured with increased uptake was considered the SUVmax. Correlative diagnostic CT examinations were used for accurate localization of the lesions. The most intense uptake at baseline was identified as the index lesion and evaluated for treatment response.	2 Weeks	No
