A Phase III Randomized Trial of Adding Vincristine-topotecan-cyclophosphamide to Standard Chemotherapy in Initial Treatment of Non-metastatic Ewing Sarcoma
Study of Chemotherapy Combinations for Ewing Sarcoma
Brief description of study.
This randomized phase III trial studies combination chemotherapy to see how well it works compared to combination chemotherapy with topotecan hydrochloride in treating patients with non-metastatic extracranial Ewing sarcoma.
Detailed description of study
The purpose of this study is to test the effect of the combination of vincristine (vincristine sulfate), cyclophosphamide, and topotecan (topotecan hydrochloride) (VTC) added to the standard 5-drug chemotherapy interval-compressed backbone on event-free and overall survival of children and young adults with Ewing sarcoma.
Eligibility of study
You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:
- Conditions: Ewing Sarcoma
-
Age: 50 years or below
-
Gender: All
This study investigates the effects of different chemotherapy combinations on patients with non-metastatic extracranial Ewing sarcoma. Ewing sarcoma is a type of cancer that occurs in bones or in the soft tissue around the bones. The purpose of this study is to compare the standard chemotherapy treatment with a new combination that includes an investigational medication.
Participants will receive either the standard chemotherapy treatment or the standard treatment plus an investigational medication. This study will help determine if adding the investigational medication improves event-free and overall survival in children and young adults. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the study arms and will receive their treatment accordingly.
- Who can participate: Children and young adults diagnosed with non-metastatic extracranial Ewing sarcoma may be eligible to participate. Specific eligibility criteria will be provided upon inquiry.
- Study details: Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the standard chemotherapy or the standard chemotherapy with an investigational medication. The investigational medication is being tested to see if it improves survival outcomes.
