Study Summary

This trial studies a combination of drugs & radiation to treat soft tissue sarcoma before surgery. It will test doses to find the best one, then assess effectiveness.

Who is the study for?
Adults with intermediate or high-grade soft tissue sarcoma of the trunk/extremities, size ≥5 cm, planning curative surgery. Must be 18+, have normal organ/bone marrow function, no distant metastasis, and agree to contraception. Excludes those with prior radiotherapy in the area, significant recent bleeding or heart issues, active infections needing IV antibiotics, pregnant/breastfeeding women, known Hepatitis B/C or HIV.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests ADI-PEG 20 plus Ifosfamide combined with Radiotherapy as a pre-surgery treatment for soft tissue sarcoma. Phase I determines the safest dose level; Phase II assesses its effectiveness at that dose.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to immune system activation (like inflammation), fatigue from radiation therapy and chemotherapy drugs like Ifosfamide which can also cause blood disorders and increase infection risk.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase II: ADI-PEG 20 + ifosfamide + radiotherapyExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Patients will receive ADI-PEG 20 on Day -7 of Cycle 1 and Days 1, 8, and 15 of each of three 21-day cycles, and ifosfamide per the RP2D determined in Phase I of the study on days 1 through 5 of each cycle. Mesna will be given on days 1 through 5 with ifosfamide as supportive care. Patients will also receive radiotherapy (XRT) starting on Week 4.
Group II: Phase I: ADI-PEG 20 + ifosfamide + radiotherapyExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Patients will receive ADI-PEG 20 on Day -7 of Cycle 1 and Days 1, 8, and 15 of each of three 21-day cycles, and ifosfamide per dose escalation/de-escalation schedule on days 1 through 5 of each cycle. Mesna will be given on days 1 through 5 with ifosfamide as supportive care. Patients will also receive radiotherapy (XRT) starting on Week 4.
