Clinical Trial Summary

This phase II trial studies how well alisertib works in treating patients with leiomyosarcoma of the uterus that has come back or persistent. Alisertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.


Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess the clinical activity of MLN8237 (alisertib) in patients with recurrent or persistent leiomyosarcoma of the uterus who have received one or two prior cytotoxic therapies and the frequency of patients who survive progression-free for at least 6 months after initiating therapy or have objective tumor response.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the frequency and severity of adverse events as assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4 (CTCAE v4) among women with leiomyosarcoma treated with MLN8237.

II. To determine the distribution of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the relationship of Aurora A Kinase expression, measured by immunohistochemistry, with objective response, PFS at 6 months, survival, and progression-free survival.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive alisertib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-7. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years. ;
