NCT02584309 · STUDY IN CONTEXT
Doxorubicin With Upfront Dexrazoxane for the Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Soft Tissue Sarcoma
Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

Linked outcomes
* PFS is defined as the time from on study to the first occurrence of progression or death, whichever occurs first. * If no event exists, the PFS will be censored at the last follow-up. * Progressive disease - At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progressions).
Death due to cardiovascular while on study (heart failure, myocardial infarction, fatal arrhythmia).
* Cardiomyopathy is now referred to as cancer therapy related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) by the recent consensus statement of the International Cardio-Oncology Society. Moderate CTRCD is defined as \>10% ejection fraction drop to \<50%. Mild CTRCD is defined as drop in ≥15% ventricular strain or if no ventricular strain, a drop in ejection fraction of ≥50%. * Heart failure is defined according to the recent Universal Definition and Classification of Heart Failure: A Report of the Heart Failure Society of America, Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology, Japanese Heart Failure Society and Writing Committee of the Universal Definition of Heart Failure.
* Cardiac dysfunction for this outcome measure is defined as moderate cancer therapy related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) as assessed by 2D Echocardiogram Modified Simpson's Biplane Method of LVEF. Moderate CTRCD is defined as \>10% ejection fraction drop to \<50%. * 3D echocardiograms were reviewed for evidence of cardiac dysfunction prior to onset of Moderate CTRCD by 2D echocardiogram. Dysfunction on 3D Echo was defined as \>10% ejection fraction drop to \<50%.
* Cardiac dysfunction for this outcome measure is defined as moderate cancer therapy related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) by 2D Echocardiogram Modified Simpson's Biplane Method of LVEF.

- * Dexrazoxane will be given intravenously on an outpatient basis over 15 minutes on each day that doxorubicin is given. * Dexrazoxane should be given no more than 30 minutes prior to administration of doxorubicin, which is typically given on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle. * Dosing is a 10:1 ratio of dexrazoxane to doxorubicin; doxorubicin is typically given at 75 mg/m2, so dexrazoxane dosing would be 750 mg/m2. * In the event of a national shortage of dexrazoxane, 72-hour infusional doxorubicin can be used instead of dexrazoxane and bolus doxorubicin..
