Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Recurrent or persistent leiomyosarcoma of the uterus.

• measurable disease.

• Patients must have at least one "target lesion" to be used to assess response on this protocol as defined by RECIST version 1.1 (Section 8.1).

• Patients must not be eligible for a higher priority GOG protocol, if one exists. In general, this would refer to any active GOG Phase III protocol.

• GOG Performance Status of 0, 1, or 2.

• Patients should be free of active infection requiring antibiotics (with the exception of uncomplicated UTI).

• Any hormonal therapy directed at the malignant tumor must be discontinued at least one week prior to registration. Hormonal therapy will not count as a prior regimen (either cytotoxic or non-cytotoxic).

• Any other prior therapy directed at the malignant tumor, including chemotherapy and immunologic agents, must be discontinued at least three weeks prior to registration.

• Any prior radiation therapy must be completed at least 2 weeks prior to registration.

• At least 4 weeks must have elapsed since the patient underwent any major surgery (for example, hysterectomy, resection of a metastatic nodule); placement of a central venous catheter is considered minor, not major and thus time from a minor procedure until treatment on study may be shorter than 4 weeks.

• Patients must have had at least one prior chemotherapeutic regimen for management of leiomyosarcoma.

• Patients may have had one additional chemotherapeutic regimen for management of leiomyosarcoma, for a total of two prior lines of therapy.

• Patients must have NOT received any non-cytotoxic (biologic or targeted) agents as part of their primary treatment or for management of recurrent or persistent disease. (Patients who were previously treated on GOG 0250, a randomized trial of gemcitabine-docetaxel plus bevacizumab or placebo, are eligible, provided that the patient is known to have been treated on the placebo-containing arm and did not receive prior bevacizumab)

• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1,500/mcl (1.5 x 109/L). Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/mcl (100 x 109/L). Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 9 g/dL. Patients may not have had blood transfusion or platelet transfusion within 7 days of screening assessment.

• Creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 mg/dL (133 umol/L) or, if >1.5 mg/dl, then calculated creatinine clearance must be greater than or equal to 30 mL/min.

• Hepatic function:

• Bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN (subjects with Gilbert's syndrome and elevations of indirect bilirubin only are eligible).

• AST and ALT less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN and alkaline phosphatase less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN.

• Subjects who have BOTH bilirubin greater than ULN and AST/ALT greater than ULN are not eligible. (Specifically, if bilirubin is greater than 1 x ULN but less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN, THEN the AST and ALT must be less than or equal to ULN for patient to be eligible. If AST and /or ALT are greater than 1 x ULN but less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN, THEN the bilirubin must be less than or equal to ULN for patient to be eligible.)

• Urine Protein/ Creatinine Ratio (UPCR) must be less than 1 (or urinary protein less than 1 g/24 hours). -Blood coagulation parameters: PT such that international normalized ratio (INR) is less than or equal to 1.2 x ULN (Patients on anticoagulant therapy are eligible if their INR is stable, and in-range INR, usually between 2 and 3) and a PTT less than or equal to 1.2 x ULN.

• Patients must have signed an approved informed consent and authorization permitting release of personal health information.

• Patients who have met the pre-entry requirements specified in section 7.0.

• Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to the study entry and be practicing an effective form of contraception.

• Patients must be 18 years or older.

• Patients must be capable of taking and absorbing oral medications.

• Any concomitant medications that are associated with a risk of QTc prolongation and/or Torsades de Pointes should be discontinued or replaced with drugs that do not carry these risks, if possible. Patients who must take medication with a risk of possible risk of Torsades de Pointes should be watched carefully for symptoms of QTc prolongation, such as syncope. See Appendix III for a list of concomitant medications associated with QTc and Torsades de Pointes.

Patients with personal or family history of congenital long QTc syndrome are NOT eligible.

• CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 are prohibited. Grapefruit juice is also an inhibitor of CYP450 and should not be taken with pazopanib.

• CYP3A4 Inducers: Strong inducers of CYP3A4 are prohibited.

• CYP Substrates: Concomitant use of agents with narrow therapeutic windows that are metabolized by CYP3A4, CYP2D6, or CYP2C8 is not recommended.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Prior therapy with pazopanib.

• Patients with other invasive malignancies, with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer, and other specific malignancies as noted in Sections 3.23 and 3.24, are excluded if there is any evidence of other malignancy being present within the last three years. Patients are also excluded if their previous cancer treatment contraindicates this protocol therapy.

• Patients who have received prior radiotherapy to any portion of the abdominal cavity or pelvis OTHER THAN for the treatment of uterine leiomyosarcoma within the last three years are excluded. Prior radiation for localized cancer of the breast, head and neck, or skin is permitted, provided that it was completed more than three years prior to registration, and the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease.

• Patients who have received prior chemotherapy for any abdominal or pelvic tumor OTHER THAN for the treatment of uterine leiomyosarcoma within the last three years are excluded. Patients may have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy for localized breast cancer, provided that it was completed more than three years prior to registration, and that the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease.

• Patient has been treated with an investigational agent or device within 30 days of entering the study.

• Patient is known to have history of active Hepatitis B or C.

• Patients with clinically significant cardiovascular disease. This includes:

• Patients must have blood pressure (BP) no greater than 140 mmHg (systolic) and 90 mmHg (diastolic) for eligibility. (Note: initiation of antihypertensive medications is permitted prior to study entry. At least 24 hours must have elapsed between antihypertensive medication initiation and BP measurement. At that time the BP should be measured 3 times, approximately 2 minutes apart, the 3 values should be averaged. This average or mean BP must be less than 140/90 mmHg.

• Myocardial infarction or unstable angina or cardiac angioplasty or cardiac stenting or coronary artery bypass graft surgery or symptomatic peripheral vascular disease within 6 months of the first date of pazopanib therapy.

• New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or greater congestive heart failure (Appendix II).

• Women who have received prior anthracycline (e.g., doxorubicin and/or liposomal doxorubicin) and who have an ejection fraction less than the institutional lower limit of normal will be excluded from the study. Patients with a prior life time exposure to doxorubicin (or liposomal doxorubicin) of greater than 300 mg/m2 are NOT eligible.

• CTCAE grade 2 or greater peripheral vascular disease.

• History of cerebrovascular accident (CVA, stroke), transient ischemic attack (TIA) or subarachnoid hemorrhage within six months of the first date of pazopanib therapy.

• Women with a baseline QTc >480 milliseconds.

• History of cerebrovascular accident, including transient ischemic attack, or pulmonary embolism, within the past 6 months. (Note: subjects with recent DVT only (no PE) who have been treated with therapeutic anticoagulation for at least six weeks are eligible).

• A patient with arterial thrombosis within 6 months prior to enrollment.

• Patients with history or evidence upon physical examination of CNS disease, including primary brain tumor, seizures not controlled with standard medical therapy or any brain metastases.

Patients with underlying lesions that caused the fistula or perforation in the past that have not been corrected.

• History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to pazopanib.

• HIV-positive subjects on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with pazopanib. In addition, these subjects are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy. Appropriate studies will be undertaken in subjects receiving combination antiretroviral therapy when indicated.

• Patients who are pregnant or nursing. Patients who are lactating should discontinue nursing prior to the first dose of study drug and should refrain from nursing throughout the treatment period and for 14 days following the last dose of study drug.
