Study summary

The purpose of this prospective study is to assess the safety and efficacy of everolimus in Taiwanese patients with renal angiomyolipoma (AML) associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) . Only patients who fulfil the local reimbursement criteria of everolimus for TSC-AML will be included in this study.

Read the detailed description

This open-label, prospective, single-arm, multicenter Phase IV post approval commitment (PAC) study is planned to be conducted in approximately 10 patients with confirmed diagnosis of TSC-AML and who fulfil the local reimbursement criteria of everolimus for TSC-AML treatment.

The study will have a 30-day screening phase, and each patient will be on treatment up to 52 weeks. Enrollment will end at the latest within 52 weeks from Day 1 of the study, regardless of the number of patients actually recruited. After completion of the treatment phase/end of treatment (EOT), eligible patients will enter a 4-week safety follow up (FU) phase. Patients who continue to be on treatment beyond 52 weeks, based on the investigator's judgment will not be included in the 4-week safety FU phase.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Adult male or female patients from ≥ 18 years of age.
  2. Signed must be obtained prior to participation in the study.
  3. Participants with TSC associated with renal AML which is eligible for treatment with everolimus per local reimbursement criteria.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with severe hepatic impairment ( class C)
  2. Any severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions.
  3. Pregnant or breast-feeding females.
  4. Patients with to the active substance, to other rapamycin derivatives, or to any of the .
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Child-Pugh class

A score of how well the liver works in people with liver disease such as cirrhosis: class A is mild, B moderate and C severe.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Everolimus

    Participants with confirmed diagnosis of TSC-AML and who fulfil the local (Taiwan) reimbursement criteria of everolimus for TSC-AML treatment

    Drug: Everolimus

Interventions

  • Everolimus tablets for oral use. The recommended everolimus starting dose will be 10 mg orally taken once daily for all patients, except for those with impaired liver function, for whom the everolimus dose will be: * Child-Pugh grade A: 7.5 mg once daily (for patients with mild hepatic impairment) * Child-Pugh grade B: 5.0 mg once daily (for patients with moderate hepatic impairment)

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of participants with adverse events (AEs), Serious AEs (SAEs) and AEs of special interest (AESI)

    Percentage of participants with AEs, SAEs and AESIs.

    Time frame: From first dose of study treatment up to 56 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Angiomyolipoma (AML) response rate

    AML response rate is defined as the percentage of patients with an AML response. AML response will be defined as: A reduction in AML volume of at least 50% relative to screening, where AML volume is the sum of the volumes of all target AML identified at screening. In addition, AML response have to satisfy: no new AML ≥ 1 cm in longest diameter are identified, neither kidney increases in volume by more than 20% from nadir (where nadir is the lowest kidney volume at the screening), the participant does not have any angiomyolipoma-related bleeding of grade equal or over 2 (as defined by NCI CTCAE, version 5).

    Time frame: Up to 52 weeks

  2. AML progression rate

    AML progression rate is defined as the percentage of patients with an AML progression. AML progression status is defined as one or more of the following: an increase from nadir of 25% or more in AML volume to a value greater than screening AML (where nadir is the lowest AML volume obtained for the participant previously in the trial), the appearance of a new AML ≥ 1.0 cm in longest diameter, an increase from nadir of 20% or more in the volume of either kidney to a value greater than screening (where nadir is the lowest kidney volume obtained for the participant previously in the trial), angiomyolipoma-related bleeding grade ≥2 (as defined by NCI CTCAE, version 5)

    Time frame: Up to 52 weeks

  3. Percentage of participants with laboratory abnormalities

    The laboratory assessment (including hematology, coagulation, biochemistry, and urinalysis) will be recorded at baseline and during the study based on changes in grade of laboratory abnormality.

    Time frame: From screening up to 56 weeks

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
