Clinical Trial Summary

This is a study of TRC105 in combination with standard dose pazopanib compared to single agent pazopanib in patients with angiosarcoma not amenable to curative intent surgery (e.g., metastatic or bulky disease, and disease for which surgical resection would carry an unacceptable risk to the patient) who have not received pazopanib or TRC105 previously.


Description:

TRC105 (carotuximab) is a monoclonal antibody to endoglin (CD105), an essential angiogenic target highly expressed on tumor vessels that is distinct from VEGFR. Endoglin is also expressed directly on tumor cells in angiosarcoma and is upregulated following VEGF inhibition. TRC105 inhibits angiogenesis, tumor growth and metastases in preclinical models and complements the activity of bevacizumab and multi-kinase inhibitors that target the VEGFR.

Pazopanib is an oral inhibitor of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases, including vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)-1, VEGFR-2, and VEGFR-3 at therapeutic plasma concentrations. These receptors are implicated in pathologic angiogenesis, tumor growth, and cancer progression.

By targeting a non-VEGF pathway that is upregulated following VEGF inhibition, TRC105 has the potential to complement VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and could represent a major advance in the treatment of angiosarcoma. Together, the use of TRC105 with pazopanib may result in more effective angiogenesis inhibition and improved clinical efficacy over that seen with pazopanib alone.

Deep venous thrombosis within 3 months prior to randomization unrelated to a central venous catheter, unless the patient is anti-coagulated without the use of warfarin for at least 2 weeks prior to randomization. In this situation, low molecular weight heparin is preferred

14. Active bleeding or pathologic condition that carries a high risk of bleeding (e.g., hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia). Patients with bleeding cutaneous lesions not actively requiring transfusions are eligible. Patients who have been uneventfully anti-coagulated with low molecular weight heparin are eligible

15. Hemoptysis (> ½ teaspoon [2.5 mL] of bright red blood) within 6 months prior to randomization

16. Thrombolytic use (except to maintain i.v. catheters) within 10 days prior to randomization

17. Known active viral or nonviral hepatitis or cirrhosis

18. Peptic ulcer within the past 3 months prior to randomization, unless treated for the condition and complete resolution has been documented by esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD)

19. Presence of tumor(s) invading into the heart or great vessels (including carotid artery) or another location where bleeding is associated with high morbidity including patients with primary cardiac or great vessel angiosarcoma

20. Gastrointestinal perforation or fistula in the 6 months prior to randomization unless underlying risk has been resolved (e.g., through surgical resection or repair)

21. Presence of a malabsorption syndrome, gastrointestinal disorder, or gastrointestinal surgery that could affect the absorption of pazopanib

22. History of prior malignancy except adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer or adequately treated, with curative intent, cancer from which the patient is currently in complete remission per Investigator's judgment; patients with history of breast cancer and no evidence of disease on hormonal therapy to prevent recurrence and patients with prostate cancer on adjuvant hormonal therapy with undetectable PSA are eligible

23. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) related illness

25. Concurrent use or receipt of a strong CYP3A4 inducer within 12 days prior to randomization or a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor within 7 days prior to randomization (see Table 10)

26. History of severe hypersensitivity reaction to any monoclonal antibody

27. Other severe acute or chronic medical (including bone marrow suppressive diseases) or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation, impede the ability of the patient to complete all protocol-specified activities, or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the Investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for this study

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Progression Free Survival of Patients With Unresectable Angiosarcoma Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions. Progression free survival is defined as time from randomization to either first disease progression (per independent radiology review of images by RECIST 1.1) or death from any cause. from date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to cut off date of interim analysis (25 months)
Secondary Objective Response Rate of Patients With Unresectable Angiosarcoma Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions: Complete Response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR) is >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR. Overall response rate is defined as the number of patients with a best response designation of complete response or partial response recorded between the date of randomization and the date of documented progression. from date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to cut off date of interim analysis (25 months)
Secondary Overall Survival of Patients With Unresectable Angiosarcoma Overall survival is the number of death events at 25 months, including all on-study and off-study deaths (past post-treatment 28-day follow up visit) from beginning of study to cut off date of interim analysis (25 months)
Secondary To Characterize Patient Reported Outcomes Between the Two Arms of the Study Patient reported outcomes as measured by the EuroQol five dimensions questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) and the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer quality of life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30). The EORTC QLQ-C30 health scale is on a scale of 1 to 7, with 1 being poor health and 7 being excellent health. The EQ-5D-5L scale is on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst health one can imagine, and 100 being the best health one can imagine. Screening and 9 weeks (Cycle 3 Day 1)
