Authorised Human Pharmacology (Phase I)- Other Ewing Sarcoma

International open-label phase I dose escalation study of dinutuximab beta in combination with vincristine/doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide/etoposide in pediatric, adolescent, and adult patients with GD2-positive Ewing sarcoma

EU CTIS ID: 2024-515245-42-00

What this study is testing

The primary objective of this trial is to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of dinutuximab beta when administered in combination with vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide, as well as ifosfamide and etoposide, in patients with HR Ewing sarcoma. The trial will focus on dose-finding to identify the RP2D that maximizes therapeutic efficacy considering DLT.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Histologically confirmed, newly diagnosed Ewing Sarcoma (m/f/d) or so-called Ewing-like sarcoma (i.e. translocation-positive small blue round cell sarcoma other than Rhabdomyosarcoma) of bone and / or soft tissue with evidence of EWS translocation by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), or next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay
  • Availability of fresh frozen tumor tissue for central GD2-detection
  • Age ≥12 months
  • Start of first line treatment according to standard induction treatment (Cycle 1-4: VDC – IE – VDC – IE)
  • Wash-out phase with a minimum of 14 days after the last dose of the last chemotherapy
  • Lansky (<16 years) Performance Score ≥70% or ECOG (≥16 years) ≤ 2

You likely can't join if

  • Relapsed or refractory disease state
  • Patients with hypersensitivity against at least one component of the investigational medicinal product
  • Significant illnesses and/or any of the following: significant psychiatric disabilities or uncontrolled seizure disorders; active uncontrolled peptic ulcer disease; clinically significant neurologic deficit or objective peripheral neuropathy; clinically significant, symptomatic fluid in a third space
  • Active and uncontrolled CNS metastases (indicated by clinical symptoms, cerebral edema, corticosteroid and/or anticonvulsant requirement, or progressive disease); for controlled CNS metastases, patient should have been off corticosteroids for at least 28 days without overt evidence of significant neurological deficits prior to enrollment
  • Chronic Grade ≥2 diarrhea
  • Diagnosis of any malignancy other than the disease under study

  • Significant cardiac conduction abnormalities, including known familial prolonged QT syndrome, or screening QTc >480 msec
  • Active, uncontrolled infection or an unexplained fever >38.5°C which in the Investigator’s opinion might compromise the patient’s participation in the study or affect the study outcome
