COG AEWS0031 Protocol A

Study Dates of enrollment Evidence Comparator Comparative Efficacy
Womer et al. 2012 (COG AEWS0031) 2001-05 to 2005-08 Phase 3 (C) Intensified treatment Seems to have inferior EFS

Protocol A is a standard protocol consisting of 14 21-day cycles

Induction

Chemotherapy, VDC portion (cycles 1 & 3)

  • Vincristine (Oncovin) 2 mg/m2 (maximum dose of 2 mg) IV push once on day 1
    • Treat with 50% doses calculated on a m2 basis for children < 1 year, then consider increasing to 75% and then to 100 % of calculated dose if tolerated
  • Doxorubicin (Adriamycin) 75 mg/m2 IV continuous infusion over 48 hours, started on day 1
    • Treat with 50% doses calculated on a m2 basis for children < 1 year, then consider increasing to 75% and then to 100 % of calculated dose if tolerated
  • Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) 1200 mg/m2 IV over 60 minutes once on day 1
    • Treat with 50% doses calculated on a m2 basis for children < 1 year, then consider increasing to 75% and then to 100 % of calculated dose if tolerated

Supportive therapy, VDC portion (cycles 1 & 3)

  • Mesna (Mesnex) 720 mg/m2 IV continuous infusion on day 1
    • NOTE: Protocol states that mesna should be dosed as AT LEAST 60% of cyclophosphamide m2
    • Continuous infusion should be started at the same time as the cyclophosphamide and remain until at least 8 hours after the end of the cyclophosphamide infusion
  • Filgrastim (Neupogen) 5 mcg/kg SC once per day for at least 7 days, or until ANC at least 750/μl, beginning on day 2
    • ANC at least 750/μl on or before day 7 of the cycle is not sufficient for discontinuing G-CSF

Chemotherapy, IE portion (cycles 2 & 4)

  • Ifosfamide (Ifex) 1800 mg/m2 IV infusion over 1 hour once per day on days 1 to 5
    • Treat with 50% doses calculated on a m2 basis for children < 1 year, then consider increasing to 75% and then to 100 % of calculated dose if tolerated
  • Etoposide (Vepesid) 100 mg/m2 IV infusion over 1 to 2 hours once per day on days 1 to 5
    • Treat with 50% doses calculated on a m2 basis for children < 1 year, then consider increasing to 75% and then to 100 % of calculated dose if tolerated

Supportive therapy, IE portion (cycles 2 & 4)

  • Mesna (Mesnex) 1080 mg/m2 IV continuous infusion on day 1
    • NOTE: Protocol states that mesna should be dosed as AT LEAST 60% of ifosfamide m2
    • Ccontinuous infusion should be started at the same time as the ifosfamide and remain until at least 8 hours after the end of the ifosfamide infusion
  • Filgrastim (Neupogen) 5 mcg/kg SC once per day for at least 7 days, or until ANC at least 750/μl, beginning on day 6
    • ANC at least 750/μl on or before day 7 of the cycle is not sufficient for discontinuing G-CSF

21-day cycle for 4 cycles, followed by:


Continuation

  • At week 13 patients either underwent surgery, received radiation, or both
  • Radiation coincided with cycle 5

Note: the cycle count for this phase starts at cycle 5.

Chemotherapy, VDC portion (cycles 5 & 9)
