A Phase 1 Study of Temsirolimus in Combination With Irinotecan and Temozolomide in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended Phase 2 dose and schedule of
temsirolimus administered in combination with irinotecan and temozolomide every three weeks
to children with recurrent or refractory solid tumors.

II. To define and describe the toxicities of this regimen in these patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To preliminarily define the antitumor activity of this regimen in these patients.

II. To collect preliminary data regarding the biologic effects of temsirolimus on proteins
involved in signaling pathways of interest in these patients. (Exploratory)

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study, dose-escalation study of temsirolimus.

Patients receive temsirolimus IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8 or on days 1, 8, and 15 and
irinotecan hydrochloride and oral temozolomide on days 1-5. Courses repeat every 21 days for
up to 12 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Some patients undergo bone marrow collection at baseline and during study for
temsirolimus-induced changes in mTOR pathway proteins by flow cytometric analysis and
immunoblotting.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed up for 30 days.
