Phase 1 Study of Pazopanib in Combination With Irinotecan and Temozolomide (PAZIT) for Children and Young Adults With Relapsed or Refractory Sarcoma
This is the first study to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of the combination of
oral pazopanib, intravenous or oral irinotecan, and oral temozolomide in pediatric and young
adult patients with relapsed or refractory sarcomas. This study will use a 3 + 3 design for
dose escalation (Part 1), followed by an expansion cohort (Part 2) at the recommended phase 2
dose level.
oral pazopanib, intravenous or oral irinotecan, and oral temozolomide in pediatric and young
adult patients with relapsed or refractory sarcomas. This study will use a 3 + 3 design for
dose escalation (Part 1), followed by an expansion cohort (Part 2) at the recommended phase 2
dose level.
The combination of irinotecan and temozolomide is well-tolerated and provides an active
therapy option for heavily pre-treated patients with sarcoma. The toxicity profile and
activity level suggest that this combination will provide a useful platform onto which novel
compounds may be added. Pazopanib has been shown to demonstrate single-agent activity in
sarcomas in the preclinical and clinical settings. Pazopanib has also been shown to have
additive or synergistic effects in preclinical models of sarcomas when combined with
cytotoxic chemotherapy. Pharmacokinetic studies of pazopanib and irinotecan as well as
pharmacodynamic studies of pazopanib to assess anti-angiogenesis will be performed.
Exploratory studies to assess non-invasive methods of monitoring tumor response (circulating
tumor DNA and functional imaging by PET/MRI) will be performed.

5. Therapeutic Options: Patient's current disease state must be one for which there is
not known curative therapy or therapy proven to prolong survival with an acceptable
quality of life.
6. Performance Level: Karnofsky >/= 50% for patients > 16 years of age and Lansky >/= 50%

Hematopoietic growth factors: At least 14 days after the last dose of a long-acting
growth factor (e.g. Neulasta) or 7 days for short-acting growth factor. For agents
that have known adverse events occurring beyond 7 days after administration, this
period must be extended beyond the time during which adverse events are known to
occur. The duration of this interval must be discussed with the study chair.
Biologic (anti-neoplastic agent): At least 7 days must have passed after the last
treatment with a biologic agent. For agents that have known adverse events occurring
beyond 7 days from administration, this period must be extended beyond the time during
which adverse events are known to occur. The duration of this interval must be
discussed with the study chair.
Immunotherapy: At least 4 weeks since the completion of any type of immunotherapy,
e.g. tumor vaccines.
Monoclonal antibodies: >/= 21 days must have elapsed from infusion of last dose of
antibody, and toxicity related to prior antibody therapy must be recovered to Grade
= 1.
XRT: >/= 2 weeks must have elapsed for local palliative XRT (small port) and
enrollment on study. At least 24 weeks must have elapsed since prior Total Body
Irradiation (TBI), radiation to ≥50% of pelvis, or craniospinal radiation; >/= 6 weeks
must have elapsed if the patient has received other substantial bone marrow radiation.
Stem Cell Transplant (SCT): No evidence of active GVHD and >/= 2 months must have
elapsed since transplant or rescue.
Prior treatment with pazopanib, irinotecan, temozolomide: Patients may have received
other VEGF blocking tyrosine kinase inhibitors, provided that they did not progress
while receiving one of these agents. Patients may not have previously received
pazopanib. Patients must have recovered from any VEGF blocking drug-related toxicity
(e.g., proteinuria).
Patients previously treated with irinotecan and/or temozolomide will be eligible for
this study provided they did not progress while receiving one of these agents.
