Trial With Gemcitabine and Rapamycin in Second Line of Metastatic Osteosarcoma

Overview

Multicenter and prospective phase II trial with gemcitabine and rapamycin in second line of metastatic osteosarcoma. The study includes 6 cycles of the combination gemcitabine+rapamycin in metastatic or unresectable osteosarcoma patients.

The trial seeks to analyze progression free survival (PFS), measured as PFS rate at 4 months, in patients with metastatic osteosarcoma who have previously received the most active drugs in this disease (methotrexate, cisplatin, adriamycin and ifosfamide). The treatment schedule consists of a maximum of 6 cycles of 3 weeks of gemcitabine+rapamycin. Gemcitabine is given at 800 mg/m2 in days 1 and 8 in cycles of 21 days. Rapamycin is given at 5 mg per day during treatment duration.
