Design and Study Objectives
• Design:
Study is designed as a two arm, open label randomised phase III with an observation only control
arm and experimental arm of multi-agent chemotherapy.
•
Study Objectives
Primary Objective:
-
To determine whether overall survival of patients with uterus-limited high grade
leiomyosarcoma is superior among patients assigned to treatment with adjuvant
gemcitabine plus docetaxel followed by doxurubicin compared to patients assigned to
observation
Secondary Objectives:
-
To determine whether treatment with adjuvant gemcitabine plus docetaxel followed by
doxorubicin improves recurrence free survival of patients with uterus-limited high grade
leiomyosarcoma compared to observation
-
To explore the impact of potential predictors of recurrence or death such as patient
age, and institution reported tumour size, cervix involvement (yes or no) and mitotic
rate
5
Study Population
Study Population:
- Patients with high risk uterine leiomyosarcoma
- FIGO stage I (confined to corpus +/- cervix)
- Patients require to have had at least a complete hysterectomy (including removal of cervix)

-
REGIMEN II:
Observation only
12
Duration of Study/ Study Visits
•
Patients on REGIMEN 1 will receive therapy for a maximum of 8 cycles (4 cycles of gemcitabine
+ docetaxel, followed by 4 cycles of doxorubicin) or until disease recurrence or toxicity
intervenes
•
A patient is considered off study treatment when the patient has recurred or died, a nonprotocol drug or therapy (directed at the disease) is initiated or all study therapy is totally
discontinued
•
Patients on the observation arm (REGIMEN II) are considered off study treatment at the end of
24 weeks from study entry.
•
Patients who are considered off study treatment in both arms remain on study in terms of
follow-up for evidence of recurrence and for survival status.
•
Patients will be followed for recurrence with physical examination, history and imaging until
recurrence, death or five years of follow-up is reached. If there is evidence of disease
recurrence, patients will continue to be followed for survival for at least 5 years from study
entry.
•
Please refer to study protocol investigations tables for each arm of the study to ensure the
correct observations and tests are performed at protocol specified time points.

•
•
Please refer to section 6.0 of the protocol for full details of treatment modifications/dose

(Brief details in relation to treatment modifications are provided on these slides)
Gemcitabine and Docetaxel Dose Level Definitions:
Study drug

Doxorubicin Dose Level Definitions:
Patients who require a dose reduction because of a toxicity meeting criteria specified in protocol are permitted
ONE dose reduction. If toxicity recurs of a severity that would require another dose reduction, a second dose
reduction is NOT permitted. Instead, treatment with the regimen that caused the additional toxicity should be
discontinued.
14
Treatment Modifications (REGIMEN I) -2
•
Haematologic Toxicity during EITHER gemcitabine + docetaxel OR doxorubicin
•
Initial treatment modifications will consist of cycle delay and/or dose reduction.
Refer to section 6.2 in protocol for full details.
•
The use of hematopoietic cytokines and protective reagents are restricted .
Refer to section 6.2 for full details
15
Treatment Modifications (REGIMEN I) -3
•
In addition to the dose modifications listed previously Day 8 Gemcitabine and Docetaxel dose adjustments
should be made according to the table below:
Study Drug
•
•
ANC≥1000/mcl
and
Plt≥100,000/mcl
Gemcitabine
100% of dose
Docetaxel
100% of dose
ANC 500-999/mcl OR Plt
50,000-90,000/mcl
ANC ‹500/mcl
OR
Plt‹50,000/mcl
•For patients at the initial
dose level give 675mg/m2
over 70-90 minutes.
•For patients at the 1 level
dose reduction dose give
500mg/m2.
Omit on day 8
•For patients at the initial
dose level give 60mg/m2.
•For patients at the 1 level
dose reduction dose give
50mg/m2.
Omit on day 8
Note: ANC (absolute neutrophil count) >1000/mcl = ANC 1.0 x 109/liter (L).
Plt (platelets)  100,000/mcl = Plt 100 x 109/L.
Dose reduction on Day 8 does not count as one of the two permitted protocol dose reductions for toxicity. The next cycle may be
started at previous doses, provided that blood counts have recovered as detailed in 6.23 of protocol. If a dose reduction is required
on Day 8 of a cycle, subsequent Day 8 doses should only be reduced in subsequent cycles if the criteria for reduction or omission of
the day 8 doses are met on that cycle’s Day 8 of treatment.

procedure
The CR-UK CTU should be informed of any complaints or product defects
Recall will be managed via normal hospital practice for licensed products; again the CR-UK CTU
should be informed of any product recalls.
In the event of a temperature excursion, follow local department procedure, ensure CR-UK CTU
is informed and provide the following information:
• Duration of temperature deviation: please provide the maximum period of time the IMP may
have exposed to temperatures out with those indicated above.
