Adjuvant therapy: LMS. High activity of gemcitabine/docetaxel in advance disease suggests potential role as adjuvant therapy Adjuvant phase II study of dose-rated based gemcitabine/docetaxel followed by doxorubicin Endpoints: DFS at year 2 If DFS at year 2 is promising, would propose RCT.

Adjuvant therapy: LMS • High activity of gemcitabine/docetaxel in advance disease suggests potential role as adjuvant therapy • Adjuvant phase II study of dose-rated based gemcitabine/docetaxel followed by doxorubicin • Endpoints: • DFS at year 2 • If DFS at year 2 is promising, would propose RCT
Schema Gem 900 d 1, 8 + doce 75 d 8; q 3 wk x 4 cycles Repeat CT scan Doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 q 3 w x 4 Repeat CT scan 6 weeks after CT c/a/p every 3 mo for 2 y, then every 6 mo
Objectives • PRIMARY: -two-year PFS (target > 50% PFS at 2 years) • SECONDARY: -safety, tolerability as adjuvant therapy -explore impact of age, “STS stage”, mitotic rate, ER and PR, menopausal status on PFS
Should we stage like STS? • FIGO stage I and II -Indifferent to size, grade, depth • High grade LMS -would be STS stage IIB or III
STS v. FIGO staging • FIGO I (uterus) or II (uterus and cervix) • grade 2, 3, or 4 • T1b or T2b • By definition all uterine sarcs are “deep” • Explore whether STS staging is superior to FIGO in terms of ability to predict PFS
Statistical approach • Target accrual 45 patients • Bayesian model for continuous assessment of PFS and safety • Accrue at least 15 patients per year • Stop early if data suggest 2 year PFS will be no better that 30%
Data management • On line SARC registration • On line data entry • Data monitored by SARC • Real-time assessment of endpoints by statistical office
Milestones • Full protocol written, reviewed, approved by SARC, industry sponsors, MSKCC IRB • Contracts between SARC and Lilly, SARC and Sanofi-Aventis are completed • Gemcitabine and docetaxel both supplied • Drug distribution from SARC to institutions
