AI summary

From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.

The trial is looking for people aged 14 to 70 with advanced or unresectable bone or soft tissue sarcoma that did not respond to standard treatment. It compares CAV/IE chemotherapy with toripalimab against CAV/IE chemotherapy alone.

Age
14 to 70 years.
Sex
All sexes can join.
Disease stage
Advanced or unresectable bone and soft tissue sarcoma, confirmed by pathology. Standard treatment failed or none exists. At least one measurable lesion on imaging. ECOG PS 0-1. Expected survival over 3 months.
Earlier treatment
Standard treatment must have failed, or no standard treatment exists for the sarcoma type. Earlier anti-PD-1 / PD-L1 antibody therapy is not allowed.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Earlier anti-PD-1 / PD-L1 antibody therapy
  • Another cancer within 5 years, apart from a few minor types
  • Brain or meningeal metastasis with symptoms
  • Active or past autoimmune disease
  • Serious uncontrolled heart, liver, kidney, bleeding or infection problems

Who can take part

  • Patients voluntarily participated in the study and signed informed consent; For all advanced or non resectable bone and soft tissue sarcomas confirmed by pathology, the standard treatment failed or there was no standard treatment. They were mainly synovial sarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, liposarcoma, fibrosarcoma, clear cell sarcoma, angiosarcoma, epithelioid sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, undiffertiated sarcoma, bone sarcoma, chondrosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, myofibroblastic sarcoma, malignant solitary fibroma, postradiation sarcoma,etc. But the pathological subtypes without standard treatment can be treated as first-line treatment, including but not limited to radiation-induced sarcoma, dedifferentiated / pleomorphic liposarcoma, clear cell sarcoma, etc., except for the following types: well differentiated liposarcoma, malignant mesothelioma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, etc
  • Advanced patients with unresectable lesions or lymph nodes or distant metastasis assessed by imaging
  • In the past three months, there was at least one measurable target lesion according to RECIST version 1.1 standard, and it can be accurately measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computer tomography (CT) in at least one direction (the maximum diameter needs to be recorded), with conventional CT ≥ 20 mm or spiral CT ≥ 10 mm
  • They were 14-70 years old; ECOG PS score: 0-1; the expected survival time was more than 3 months
  • Within 7 days before treatment, the main organ functions met the following criteria:; (1) Blood routine examination standard (without blood transfusion within 14 days); ① Hemoglobin (HB) ≥ 90g / L; ② The absolute value of neutrophil (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 109 / L
  • Platelet (PLT) ≥ 80 × 109 / L; (2) Biochemical examination should meet the following standards:; Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal value (ULN); Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase AST ≤ 2.5uln; ALT and AST ≤ 5uln with liver metastasis
  • Serum creatinine (CR) ≤ 1.5uln or creatinine clearance rate (CCR) ≥ 60ml / min; (3) Doppler ultrasound evaluation: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ the lower limit of normal value (50%); 6)Women of childbearing age should agree that contraceptive measures (such as intrauterine device, contraceptive or condom) must be used during the study period and within 6 months after the end of the study; serum or urine pregnancy test negative within 7 days before study enrollment, and must be non lactating patients; men should agree that contraceptive measures must be used during the study period and within 6 months after the end of the study period

Who cannot take part

  • Patients who had previously received anti-PD-1 / PD-L1 antibody therapy
  • Systemic anti-tumor therapy including cytotoxic therapy, signal transduction inhibitors, immunotherapy (or mitomycin C within 6 weeks prior to the trial drug treatment) was planned within 4 weeks before enrollment or during the study period.

  • Any unrelieved toxic reaction higher than CTC AE (4.01) grade 1 or above caused by previous treatment, excluding alopecia
  • Major surgical treatment, open biopsy or obvious traumatic injury were performed within 28 days before admission
  • Patients with any physical signs or history of bleeding regardless of severity; patients with any bleeding or bleeding events ≥ CTCAE 3 within 4 weeks before enrollment had unhealed wounds, ulcers or fractures
  • Subjects with clinical symptoms of central nervous system metastasis (such as brain edema, need for hormone intervention, or brain metastasis progression); patients who have previously received treatment for brain or meningeal metastasis, such as clinical stability (MRI) for at least 2 months, and who have stopped systemic hormone therapy (dose > 10mg / day, prednisone or other effective hormones) for more than 2 weeks can be included
  • The subjects were using immunosuppressive agents, or systemic or absorbable local hormone therapy to achieve the purpose of immunosuppression (dosage > 10mg / D, prednisone or other effective hormones), and continued to use them within 2 weeks before enrollment
  • Patients who participated in other clinical trials of anti-tumor drugs within 28 days before enrollment
  • Other malignancies occurred or were present within 5 years, except for cervical carcinoma in situ, non melanoma skin cancer and superficial bladder tumor [ta (non invasive tumor), tis (carcinoma in situ) and T1 (tumor infiltrating basement membrane)]
  • With pleural effusion or ascites, it causes respiratory syndrome (≥ CTC AE grade 2 dyspnea [grade 2 dyspnea refers to shortness of breath with a small amount of activity; it affects instrumental activities of daily living])
