A study for children and adults with newly diagnosed or recurrent rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS)
Descrizione riassuntiva dello studio
RMS is a type of soft tissue tumor that originates from muscle or fibrous tissue and primarily occurs in children, but also in adolescents and adults. In most patients, RMS treatment consists of intensive chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation therapy. The FaR-RMS study is a non-commercial international clinical trial initiated by scientists. The FaR-RMS study aims to investigate various strategies to improve treatment outcomes for patients with RMS by adjusting chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Additionally, biological aspects of RMS are being researched to better understand the genetic structure of RMS cells. The FaR-RMS study consists of several parts. In the first part of the study, tumor samples are biologically examined. On one hand, new information about RMS is collected as part of research projects. On the other hand, patients are classified into risk groups for further treatment based on examination results.

Intervento studiato
In the second part of the study, patients are treated according to their assigned risk group. In principle, the study consists of five sections:
1) Phase 1b (determination of the dose of new drug combinations, completed).
2) Induction chemotherapy (first treatment to reduce the tumor size). Testing of the combinations identified in Phase 1b.
3) Radiation therapy
4) Maintenance chemotherapy (maintenance or improvement of previously achieved treatment results)
5) Chemotherapy in case of relapse.
Depending on the assigned risk group, there are different treatment plans for patients within the five sections. These treatment plans are tailored in strength and intensity to the respective risk group. Patients with a lower risk receive less intensive treatments. With each of the treatment plans, researchers aim to answer a question. For this purpose, there are two variants of each treatment plan, which are compared with each other. Patients are randomly assigned to one of the two variants.
The research questions investigate, among other things:
1) The efficacy of new drug combinations
2) The efficacy of higher radiation intensities
3) Whether radiation before or after surgical tumor removal is better
4) Whether additional radiation of metastases provides additional benefit.
5) Whether extended maintenance chemotherapy is better
6) New treatments in case of relapse
The results of the various treatment plans are continuously analyzed. During the study, treatment plans that are less effective may be removed from the study. New treatment plans may also be added.

Endpoint primari e secondari
Main Objective: Phase I Dose Finding Studies:
determine the recommend. phase II dose (RP2D) of new systemic therapy regimens: irinotecan with IVA (IrIVA).
Frontline chemoth.:
? To compare syst. ther. reg. for pat. with VHR. First combination: IVADo and IrIVA
?To compare new syst. ther. reg. for pat. with HR. First combin.: IrIVA with IVA.
Radiotherapy (RT):
?Whether pre-OP or standard post-OP RT is better for pat. with resectable disease
?Whether dose escalation of RT improves outcome in pat. with a HLFR
?Whether RT of all sites +metast. sites or RT to primary site+involved lymph nodes is better for pat. with unfav. metast. dis.
Maintenance chemoth.:
?Whether addition of 12 cycles of VnC to standard 12C improves outcome for pat. with VHR
?Whether addition of 6 cycles of VnC to standard 6C improves outcome for pat. with localised HR
Relapsed dis.:
?Whether new systemic therapy regimens improve outcome in relapsed RMS. First combination: Regorafenib (R) + VIr (VIrR) compared with VIrT;Secondary Objective:
?To validate whether the use of fusion status (PAX3/PAX7-FOXO1) in place of histopathological diagnosis improves risk stratification
?To determine whether assessment of fusion status is necessary in tumours classified as Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma by histopathology
?To determine whether immunohistochemistry assessment for protein expression driven by the fusion protein is an accurate surrogate for fusion status
?To determine whether FDG PET- CT response assessment following induction chemotherapy is a prognostic biomarker for local failure and/ or survival.
Secondary Objectives (CT3 arm Relapse)
?To determine the tolerability of the regimens
?To evaluate the anti-tumour activity and effect on overall survival of VIrR when compared to standard therapy
?To evaluate the effect on quality of life of VIRR when compared to standard therapy
?To evaluate the acceptability and palatability of regorafenib formulations
?To examine the pharmacokinetics of regorafenib;Primary end point(s): The primary outcome measures for this study are as follows:
Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) - Phase 1b
Event Free Survival for randomisations CT1a, CT1b, CT2, RT2 and CT3.
Local failure free survival for randomisations RT1a, RT1b and RT1c
;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Event-free survival (EFS) time is defined as the time from the each relevant randomisation to first failure event.
Failure events are:
? Relapse or progression of existing disease, or occurrence of disease at new sites,
? Death from any cause without disease progression,
? Second malignant neoplasm
Local failure free survival (LFFS) time is defined as time from randomisation to first local failure event. A local failure event is relapse or progression of tumour at the primary site at any time even if there has been a prior concurrent local, regional or distant failure. (ICTRP)
