NCT00068419

Brief Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well giving sulindac together with tamoxifen works in treating patients with desmoid tumor. Sulindac may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth. Hormone therapy using tamoxifen may fight cancer by blocking the use of estrogen. Combining sulindac with tamoxifen may kill more cancer cells.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Percentage of Patients Failure Free at 2 Years Following Study Entry

    Kaplan Meier estimate of failure free survival at 2 years, where failure free survival is defined as the time to relapse, progression, second malignancy, and death whichever occurs first.

    Up to 2 years

  • Percentage of Patients Experiencing a Grade 3 or Higher Adverse Event During Therapy.

    The percentage of patients experiencing a grade 3 or higher adverse event as assessed by the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Terminology for Adverse Events v3.0

    Up to 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Percentage of Patients With Tumor Response From Imaging

    Baseline up to 5 years

  • Mean Change in Response Measured by MRI

    From baseline to up to 5 years

  • Percentage of Patients Failure Free at 2 Years by Pathological Response

    From enrollment to up to 2 years

  • Percentage of Patients Experiencing Short-term Endocrine Toxicity

    At study entry

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (enzyme inhibitor therapy, anti-estrogen therapy)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive oral sulindac and oral tamoxifen citrate twice daily for up to 12 months (four 3-month courses) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who achieve a complete response (CR) receive 1 additional month of treatment beyond documentation of CR.

Drug: tamoxifen citrateDrug: sulindacOther: laboratory biomarker analysis
