Study Summary

Anlotinib is a multi-target receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It can inhibit the angiogenesis related kinase, such as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor (VEGFR), Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor(FGFR), Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor(PDGFR), and tumor cell proliferation related kinase c-Kit kinase. Anlotinib is an efficient second line therapeutic agent in treatment for metastatic soft tissue sarcoma which has been approved in clinical trials (ALTER-0203). Therefore, this study evaluates the safety and efficacy of anlotinib as maintenance treatment of disease control in advanced soft tissue sarcoma.

(including:1)Uncontrollablehypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg,despite optimal drug treatment).2)Arrhythmias with grade II and above myocardialischemia or myocardial infarction, poor control (including corrected QT interval(QTc)men ≥ 450 ms, women ≥ 470 ms) and ≥ 2 congestive heart failure (New York HeartAssociation ( NYHA) rating).3)Poor control of diabetes (fasting blood glucose > 10mmol / L).4)Active or uncontrolled serious infection (≥ Common Terminology Criteria forAdverse Event(CTC AE) grade 2 infection);5)Patients with active hepatitis B orhepatitis C (hepatitis B: HBsAg-positive and hepatitis B virus(HBV) DNA ≥ 500 IU/mL;hepatitis C: hepatitis C virus(HCV) RNA-positive and abnormal liver function), oractive infection requiring antimicrobial treatment (eg Treated with antibacterialdrugs, antiviral drugs, antifungal drugs);6)renal insufficiency: urine routineindicates urinary protein ≥ ++, or confirmed 24-hour urine protein ≥ 1.0 g;7)Patientswith seizures and need treatment.)
  • Accepted surgical treatment, incision biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 28days before grouping.
  • The investigator judged that during the follow-up study, the tumor is very likely toinvade the important blood vessels and cause fatal hemorrhage, or the formation oftumor thrombosis with large veins (iliac vessels, inferior vena cava, pulmonary veins,superior vena cava)
  • Any major unhealed wound, ulcer, or fracture occurred in a patient who had undergonemajor surgery or trauma within 4 weeks and/or had any bleeding or bleeding episodeswhich the degree is bigger than CTCAE 3 grade within 4 weeks prior to enrollment.

  • History of psychotropic substance abuse who are unable to quit or have a mentaldisorder.
  • Participated in other anti-tumor clinical trials within 4 weeks.
  • The investigator believes that there are any conditions that may damage the subject orresult in the subject not being able to meet or perform the research request.

Study Design

Total Participants: 48
Treatment Group(s): 1
Primary Treatment: Anlotinib Hydrochloride
Phase: 2
Study Start date:
April 11, 2019
Estimated Completion Date:
May 30, 2024

Study Description

48 cases are preliminarily expected to be included. This study evaluating the safety and efficacy of anlotinib as a maintenance treatment after first-line anthracycline-based chemotherapy in advanced soft tissue sarcoma.

All those participants need to sign informed consent forms for data collection and be used for research purpose before inclusion. Participants remained PR/SD after ≥4 cycles of anthracyclines could be enrolled.

48 subjects with advanced soft tissue sarcoma will receive anlotinib at a dose of 12 mg once daily (day1-14 PO) in 21-day cycles until disease progression (defined by RECIST version 1.1) or unacceptable toxicity.
