Trial Information

A Phase I Study of Pazopanib as a Single Agent for Children With Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Estimate the maximum-tolerated dose and/or recommended phase II dose of pazopanib
hydrochloride in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors.

II. Define and describe the toxicities of this regimen in these patients. III. Characterize
the pharmacokinetics of pazopanib hydrochloride in these patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Preliminarily define the antitumor activity of pazopanib hydrochloride within the
confines of a phase I study.

II. Evaluate changes in tumor vascular permeability following initiation of pazopanib
hydrochloride and correlate these changes with clinical outcome by dynamic contrast-enhanced
MRI.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study dose-escalation study.

Patients receive oral pazopanib hydrochloride once daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every
28 days for up to 24 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients accrued after the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of pazopanib hydrochloride has been
determined receive pazopanib hydrochloride as an oral suspension.

Some patients undergo dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI at baseline and periodically during
study. Blood samples are collected at baseline and periodically during study for
pharmacokinetic studies.
