ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating a new treatment called vactosertib for adolescents and adults aged 14 and older who have osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer that has come back after treatment or has not responded to standard therapies. The study aims to understand how safe the medication is and how well it works in shrinking tumors. Participants will take vactosertib by mouth twice a day and will be closely monitored for any side effects and changes in their condition.

To be eligible for this study, participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of osteosarcoma that is measurable and has progressed despite earlier treatments. They should also be in good overall health, meaning they have recovered from previous therapies and have normal blood and organ function. It’s important that potential participants are able to understand and agree to the study requirements. If you or someone you know is interested in participating, please reach out to the study team for more information about what to expect and how to enroll.

Eligibility criteria

• • Inclusion Criteria

• • Informed Consent/Assent Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol.
• • Age ≥12 years at the time of screening
• • Type of Subject and Disease Characteristics
• • 1. Subjects may be male or female and must be equal to or greater than 12 years of age. No large studies have evaluated the use of vactosertib in younger pediatric subjects, for this reason, children younger than 12 years of age are excluded from this study.
• • 2. Subjects must have histologic verification of Osteosarcoma (OS)
• • 3. Subjects must have measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 (Appendix C), documented by clinical, radiographic and histologic criteria, and have progressed, relapsed or become refractory to conventional therapy.
• • 4. Subjects must have recovered from the acute toxic effects with ≤ Grade 1 as defined by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 5.0 of all prior chemotherapy and immunotherapy with the exception of alopecia, anorexia, bone pain, and tumor pain prior to entering this study.
• • 5. Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: Must have adequate recovery of counts from previous treatment prior to entry onto this study.
• • 6. Inclusion criteria include adequate renal function, ECOG performance status 0-2, and either Lansky performance status of 50-100% (\<16 years old), or Karnofsky performance status 50-100% (≥16 years old). Subjects who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are up in a wheelchair will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score.
• 7. Subjects must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:
• • a. Adequate bone marrow function defined as: i. Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 750/mcL ii. Platelet count ≥ 75,000/mcL (transfusion independent) iii. Hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 g/dL (may receive packed red blood cell transfusions) b. Adequate liver function defined as: i. Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal for age ii. AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal iii. Albumin (serum or plasma) \> 2 g/dL c. Adequate cardiac function defined as: i. Ejection fraction of ≥ 50% by echocardiogram or MUGA
• • 8. Subjects must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document if ≥ 18 years of age and an assent document if \< 18 years of age (per country).
• 9. Renal laboratory inclusion:
• • 10. Relapsed osteosarcoma (first, second, third or any relapse, subject who have recovered from chemotherapy and any other investigational drug/agent treatment, radiotherapy or surgical procedure), with histological confirmed diagnosis of osteosarcoma at original presentation, and progressive disease documented by imaging within 3 months of entry into the trial.
• • Exclusion Criteria
• The subject must be excluded from participating in the trial if:
• • 1. Subjects who have moderate or severe cardiovascular disease
• • 1. Subjects who have uncontrolled intercurrent illness, including but not limited to, ongoing or active infection requiring systemic therapy, symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III/IV), uncontrolled hypertension (≥150/90mmHg), unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction (≤ 6 months prior to screening), uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, clinically significant cardiac valvulopathy requiring treatment, serious chronic gastrointestinal conditions associated with diarrhea, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirement, substantially increase risk of incurring AEs or compromise the ability of the subject to give written informed consent
• • 2. Subjects who have major abnormalities at the Investigator's discretion based on electrocardiogram (ECG)and Doppler ECHO and MUGA results at screening or within 14 days before screening. QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≥470 ms in both male and female calculated from 12-lead ECGs.
• • 3. Subjects who have increase in brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) or increase in troponin (over 99th percentile upper reference limit) at Screening (based on the normal range of relevant study center)
• • 4. Subjects who have risk factors for ascending aortic aneurysm such as genetic disorder and trauma and risk factors for aortic stenosis
• • 5. Subjects who have a history of heart or aorta surgery

• • 3. Subjects who have a known history or suspected hypersensitivity to any excipients of the investigational product.

• 5. Subjects who have a disease or condition that affects the mechanism of the investigational product, or are currently using or planning to use:
• • 1.

Concurrent use of foods that are known strong CYP3A4 inhibitors including but not limited to grapefruit juice, Itraconazole, Ketoconazole, Lopinavir/ritonavir, Mibefradil, and Voriconazole. The topical use of these medications (if applicable), such as 2% ketoconazole cream, may be allowed.)
• • 2. Drugs that are exclusively or primarily eliminated by UDP glucuronyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 (UGT1A1)
