NCT01014351

Brief Summary

Based on data demonstrating synergy between paclitaxel and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibition, the investigators propose that the addition of everolimus to paclitaxel with carboplatin should lead to improvements in efficacy as measured by progression-free survival and response rate.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from randomization until objective tumor progression (PD) or death. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

    18 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    18 months

  • Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    18 months

Study Arms (1)

Paclitaxel/Carboplatin/Everolimus

EXPERIMENTAL

Systemic Therapy using everolimus, paclitaxel and carboplatin given during a 21-day treatment cycle

Drug: PaclitaxelDrug: CarboplatinDrug: Everolimus

Interventions

Paclitaxel, 175mg/m2 by IV infusion over 1-3 hours on day 1 of every 21 day cycle

Also known as: Taxol
Paclitaxel/Carboplatin/Everolimus

Carboplatin, AUC 6 given by IV infusion over 20-30 minutes on day 1 of every 21 day cycle

Also known as: Paraplatin
Paclitaxel/Carboplatin/Everolimus

Everolimus, 5 mg by mouth (PO) once a day, continuous dosing every 21-day cycle

Also known as: RAD001, Afinitor
Paclitaxel/Carboplatin/Everolimus

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically confirmed metastatic melanoma.
  • Stage III or IV disease that is not amenable to resection.
  • Measurable disease by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. If the patient has had previous radiation to the target lesion(s), there must be evidence of progression since the radiation.
  • ECOG Performance Status of 0 or 1.
  • Life expectancy ≥12 weeks.
  • No prior cytotoxic chemotherapy or targeted therapy. Immunotherapy is allowed (i.e., interleukin-2 or interferon).
  • Adequate hematological function:
  • absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1500/µL and
  • platelets ≥100,000/µL and
  • hemoglobin \>9 g/dL
  • Adequate renal function: serum creatinine ≤2.0 mg/dL or calculated (measured) GFR ≥50 mL/min.
  • Adequate hepatic function:
  • serum bilirubin ≤1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN);
  • aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤2.5 × ULN, or ≤5 × ULN in patients with documented liver metastases.
  • Normal PT, INR. Patients on coumadin anticoagulation are eligible if they are on a stable dose, with an INR in the therapeutic range.
  • +5 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Previous treatment with an mTOR inhibitor (sirolimus, temsirolimus, everolimus), paclitaxel, or carboplatin.
  • Treatment with any investigational agent ≤4 weeks of protocol treatment.
  • Patients currently receiving anticancer therapies or who have received anticancer therapies ≤3 weeks of the start of the study drug (including radiation therapy, immunotherapy).
  • Patients, who have had a major surgery or significant traumatic injury ≤4 weeks of start of study drug or patients who have not recovered from the side effects of any major surgery (defined as requiring general anesthesia).
  • Patients receiving chronic, systemic treatment with corticosteroids (dose \>10 mg daily of methylprednisolone or equivalent) or other immunosuppressive agents. Topical or inhaled steroids are allowed.
  • Immunization with attenuated live vaccine ≤1 week of study or anytime during study treatment period.
  • Patients with active brain metastases are ineligible. Patients with treated brain metastases are eligible if (1) radiation therapy was completed ≥4 weeks prior to study entry; (2) surgery was completed ≥4 weeks prior to study entry; (3) follow-up scan shows no disease progression; and (4) patient does not require steroids.
  • Any severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions or other conditions that could affect participation in the study such as:
  • severely impaired lung function defined as a DLCO ≤50% of the normal predicted value and/or O2 saturation ≤88% at rest on room air.
  • symptomatic congestive heart failure of New York Heart Association Class III or IV.
  • unstable angina pectoris, symptomatic congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction ≤6 months of start of study drug, serious uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia or any other clinically significant disease.
  • uncontrolled diabetes as defined by fasting serum glucose \>1.5 x ULN.
  • active (acute or chronic) uncontrolled severe infections.
  • liver disease such as cirrhosis, chronic active hepatitis or chronic persistent hepatitis.
  • Active, bleeding diathesis.
  • +8 more criteria
