A Study on the Safety and Effectiveness of Anlotinib for Neoadjuvant Treatment of PPGL

Study Purpose

This phase II trial studies the effectiveness of anlotinib hydrochloride in the neoadjuvant therapy of locally advanced, or unresectable pheochromocytoma or paragangliom(PPGL). Anrotinib is used preoperatively in order to change unresectable tumors to resectable and reduce the high risk of surgery.

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05883085
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This prospective, single arm phase II study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy with anlotinib hydrochloride in locally advanced,or unresectable PPGL patients. Locally advanced,or unresectable PPGL patients receive anlotinib hydrochloride(10-12mg orally once daily on days 1-14, courses repeat every 21 days). Imaging examinations will be conducted after 4 courses to re-evaluate the surgical possibility. If the patient's tumor shrinks after 4 courses but is still unresectable, the patients will continue antirotinib therapy for another 4 courses. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: The proportion of patients whose PPGL change from unresectable to resectable tumor. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: To determine the objective response rate (ORR) . To determine the ratio of tumor shrinkage. To determine the biochemical response . To determine the R0 resection rate. To determine the Major pathological response rate (MPR). To determine the pathologic complete remission(pCR). To assess the safety of anlotinib treatment.
