New drug combo aims to control tough cancers in kids and adults
NCT ID NCT05210413
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a combination of two drugs (spartalizumab and low-dose pazopanib) in 80 children and adults whose solid tumors have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the combo can shrink or stabilize the cancer for at least 6 months. The pediatric part finds the safest dose, while the adult part measures how well the treatment controls the disease.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. For pediatric patients (Cohort 1): 1. Patients should be without standard established therapeutic alternatives at the time of enrollment suffering from the following conditions : * refractory or recurrent solid tumor, proven histologically, * any tumor with high mutational load (\> 10 somatic mutations/ Mo) or a high MSI status, * tumor, whatever the histology, with proven PDL1 expression (≥1%) or presence of mature tertiary lymphoid structure (TLS). 2. Age ≥5 and \<18 years at inclusion, patients 18 years and older may be included after discussion with the Sponsor if they have a pediatric recurrent/refacractory malignancy. 3. Performance status: Karnofsky performance status (for patients \>16 years of age) or Lansky Play score (for patients ≤16 years of age) ≥70%. Patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis or stable neurological disability, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score. 4. Able to swallow tablets. 5. Evaluable or measurable disease as defined by standard imaging criteria for the patient's tumor type (RECIST v1.1…). 6. Life expectancy ≥ 3 months. 7. Adequate organ function: * Hematologic criteria :peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1000/μL (unsupported), platelet count ≥100,000/μL (unsupported), hemoglobin ≥8.0 g/dL (transfusion is allowed) * Cardiac function: shortening fraction (SF) \>29% (\>35% for children \<3 years) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% at baseline, as determined by echocardiography (mandatory only for patients who have received cardiotoxic therapy), absence of QTc prolongation (QTc \>450 msec on baseline ECG, using the Fridericia correction \[QTcF formula\]) or other clinically significant ventricular or atrial arrhythmia. * Renal and hepatic function: serum creatinine ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age, total bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN, alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN; aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase/SGOT ≤ 2.5 x ULN except in patients with documented tumor involvement of the liver who must have AST/SGOT and ALT/SGPT ≤ 5 x ULN. 8. Able to comply with scheduled follow-up and with management of toxicity. 9. Females of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to initiation of treatment. Sexually active women of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective contraception during the study and for at least 6 months after the last study treatment administration. Sexually active male patients must agree to use condoms during the study and for at least 6 months after the last study treatment administration. 10. Written informed consent from parents/legal representative and age-appropriate assent before any study-specific screening procedures are conducted according to local, regional or national guidelines. 11. Patient affiliated to a social security regimen or beneficiary of the same according to local requirements. 2. For adults patients: * Pre-screening phase: 1. adults (≥ 18 years old) with refractory or recurrent solid tumor (include rhabdomyosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma, osteosarcoma and other) and/or tumor with High mutation rate (\>10 somatic mutations/Mb) and/or suffering of Mismatch repair-deficient syndrome. 2. Adult patients with an ECOG score of 0/1. Patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis or stable neurological disability, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score. 3. Evaluable or measurable disease as defined by standard imaging criteria for the patient's tumor type (RECIST v1.1…). 4. Written informed consent from patient before any study-specific screening procedures are conducted according to local, regional or national guidelines. * Screening phase (Cohort 2): 1. adults without standard established therapeutic alternatives at the time of enrollment suffering from refractory or recurrent advanced solid tumor characterized by the presence of mature TLS 2. Age ≥ 18 years at inclusion 3. Adult patients with an ECOG score of 0/1. Patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis or stable neurological disability, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score. 4. Evaluable or measurable disease as defined by standard imaging criteria for the patient's tumor type (RECIST v1.1…). 5. Life expectancy ≥ 3 months 6. Adequate organ function: * Hematologic criteria :peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1000/μL (unsupported), platelet count ≥100,000/μL (unsupported), hemoglobin ≥8.0 g/dL (transfusion is allowed) * Cardiac function: shortening fraction (SF) \>29% and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% at baseline, as determined by echocardiography (mandatory only for patients who have received cardiotoxic therapy), absence of QTc prolongation (QTc \>450 msec on baseline ECG, using the Fridericia correction \[QTcF formula\]) or other clinically significant ventricular or atrial arrhythmia. * Renal and hepatic function: serum creatinine ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age, total bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN, alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN; aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase/SGOT ≤ 2.5 x ULN except in patients with documented tumor involvement of the liver who must have AST/SGOT and ALT/SGPT ≤5 x ULN. g.

Gastrostomy, ventriculo-peritoneal shunt, endoscopic ventriculostomy, tumor biopsy and insertion of central venous access devices are not considered major surgery, but for these procedures, a 48-hour interval must be maintained before the first dose of the investigational drug is administered. 12. Currently taking medications with a known risk of prolonging the QT interval or inducing Torsades de Pointes 13.

Diagnosis of immunodeficiency or receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 14 days prior to the first dose of study treatment. The use of physiologic doses of corticosteroids (up to 0.25 mg/kg daily prednisone equivalent) may be approved after consultation with the Sponsor. 15. Diagnosis of prior or active autoimmune disease. 16. Evidence of interstitial lung disease. 17. Unable to taper steroids due to ongoing mass effect; a maximum dexamethasone dose of 0.05 mg/kg/day is allowed, but preferably have been discontinued. 18. Known hypersensitivity to any study drug or component of the formulation. 19.
