Treatment of Newly Diagnosed Rhabdomyosarcoma Using Molecular Risk Stratification and Liposomal Irinotecan Based Therapy in Children With Intermediate and High Risk Disease
A Protocol for the Treatment of Newly Diagnosed Rhabdomyosarcoma Using Molecular Risk Stratification and Liposomal Irinotecan Based Therapy in Children With Intermediate and High Risk Disease
About This Trial
This is a phase II study to determine safety and efficacy of combining liposomal irinotecan with vincristine alternating with VAC in intermediate-risk patients, liposomal irinotecan with temozolomide and vincristine alternating with VAC in high-risk patients and the chemotherapy combinations when given with concomitant radiation therapy in intermediate and high risk patients. Primary Objective * Estimate event-free survival for intermediate-risk participants treated with VAC and vincristine and liposomal irinotecan (VLI) with the addition of maintenance therapy with vinorelbine and cyclophosphamide. * Estimate the event-free survival for high-risk patients treated with VAC and vincristine, liposomal irinotecan, and temozolomide with the addition of maintenance therapy with vinorelbine and cyclophosphamide. Secondary Objectives * To assess the relation between pharmacogenetic variation in CEP72 genotype and vinca alkaloid (vincristine; vinorelbine) disposition in children with rhabdomyosarcoma. * To assess the relation between the pharmacogenetic variation in drug metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters, and the pharmacokinetics of vinca alkaloids, liposomal irinotecan, and cyclophosphamide in children with rhabdomyosarcoma. * To assess the extent of inter-patient variability in the pharmacokinetics of vinca alkaloids, liposomal irinotecan, and cyclophosphamide in children with rhabdomyosarcoma, and explore possible associations between drug disposition and patient specific covariates (e.g., age, sex, race, weight). * Estimate the cumulative incidence of local recurrence and overall 3-year event-free survival in patients with low-risk disease, intermediate-risk disease or high-risk disease treated with either no adjuvant radiation or minimal volume radiation and compare these outcomes with the outcomes achieved on RMS13.

Low -risk Administer IV push over 1 minute (or infusion via minibag as per institutional standards) on Day 1 of Weeks 1,8, 15 (3) doses. The maximum dose is 2 mg for all participants. Intermediate-risk Administer IV, over 1 minute, 3 doses, weekly on day1 High-risk Administer by IV infusion over 1 minute, 3 doses, weekly on day 1,8,15
Dactinomycin
Low-risk Administer by slow IV push over 1-5 minutes on Day 1 of Weeks 1, (1) dose. The maximum dose is 2.5 mg for all participants. Intermediate-risk Administer by slow IV over 1-5 minutes., 1 doses weekly on day 1 High-risk Administer by slow IV over 1-5 minutes, day1
Cyclophosphamide
Low-risk Administer by IV infusion over 30-60 minutes on Day 1, 91) dose, Mesna and hydration will be given with IV cyclophosphamide according to institutional standards. Intermediate-risk Administer by IV infusion over 30-60 minutes, 1 dose, day 1 High-risk Administer by IV infusion over 30-60 minutes, 1 dose, day1
Surgical Resection
Low, Intermediate and High-risk
Proton beam radiation or external beam radiation or brachytherapy
Low, Intermediate and High-risk
Liposomal irinotecan
Intermediate and High-risk Administer by IV infusion over 90 minutes, 1 dose on day 1 Liposomal irinotecan should be premedicated with dexamethasone (or an equivalent corticosteroid) if not contraindicated. Premedication with diphenhydramine and an H2 receptor antagonist (i.e., famotidine) are also encouraged.
Vinorelbine
Intermediate and High-risk Administer via slow IV push over 6-10 minutes (or infusion via minibag as per institutional standards) on Day 1 of Weeks 43-45, 47-49, 51-53, 55-57, 59-61, 63-65.
Temozolomide
High-risk Administer PO (or by NG or G tube) 5 doses, on Days 1-5 When administering with liposomal irinotecan, administer temozolomide prior to liposomal irinotecan. Preferably, administer on an empty stomach (at least 1 hour before and 2 hours after food) to improve absorption. When using temozolomide capsules, round dose to the nearest 5 mg capsule. The capsule may be opened, and contents mixed with applesauce or apple juice. A compounded oral suspension is also available. If emesis occurs within 20 minutes of taking a dose of temozolomide, then the dose may be repeated once.
Filgrastim, peg-filgrastim
Low, Intermediate and High-risk: Prophylactic myeloid growth factor support (Filgrastim or Pegfilgrastim) should be used after all VAC cycles for patients on the high-risk arm. Start myeloid growth factor support (for example, filgrastim 5 mcg/kg/dose SubQ daily until the ANC is ≥ 2000/μL after the expected nadir OR pegfilgrastim 0.1 mg/kg/dose \[for patients \< 45 kg\] or 6 mg/dose \[for patients ≥ 45 kg\] SubQ x 1 dose) 24-48 hours after VAC cycles. Filgrastim may be continued without regard to VCR. Discontinue filgrastim at least 24 hours before the start of the next cycle. Prophylactic myeloid growth factor support should NOT be used after VLIT cycles or during maintenance chemotherapy.
