E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary aim of the study is to find the optimal dose of a combination of niraparib and temozolomide or irinotecan or irinotecan and temozolomide that can safely be given to patients with relapsed Ewing sarcoma (the maximum tolerated dose) and what side effects limit the doses we can give (dose limiting toxicities). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
- Tumour response rate (how much the tumour/s shrink on scans) - Progression free survival (how long it takes for tumour/s to grow) - Investigate how the drug combination affects the tumour and blood cells - Evaluate expression of genes and proteins in tumour cells |

Patients must have received as a minimum a first line chemotherapy regimen consisting of at least 2 of the following agents: doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide, etoposide. 12. Time elapsed from previous therapy must be ≥ 3 weeks for systemic therapy, ≥ 2 weeks for radiation therapy or major surgery. Patients must be recovered sufficiently from adverse effects from prior treatments (toxicities ≤ grade 2 per CTCAE version 4). 13. Patients who have undergone autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are eligible once they have recovered from all toxicities from therapy (≤ grade 2 per CTCAE version 4). 14. Patients who have received allogeneic HSCT will be eligible 6 months after the procedure provided there is no evidence of active graft-versus-host disease and immunosuppressive treatment has been discontinued for at least 30 days. 15. Patients with central nervous system (CNS) disease are eligible for enrollment if they have received prior radiotherapy or surgery to sites of CNS metastatic disease, have been off glucocorticoids for at least 4 weeks, have no overt evidence of neurological deficit and are ≥ 6 weeks from completion of brain irradiation. 16. Patients or their legal representative (if the patient is < 18 years old) must be able to read, understand and provide written informed consent to participate in the trial. Patients younger than 18 years of age should provide assent to participate in the trial. 17. Females of childbearing potential as well as males and their partners must agree to use an effective form of contraception starting with the first dose of study treatment through 6 months after the last dose of study medication. An acceptable form of contraception is use of a double barrier method or commitment to sexual abstinence. Female participant must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to taking study treatment if of childbearing potential and agrees to abstain from activities that could result in pregnancy from screening through 180 days after the last dose of study treatment, or is of nonchildbearing potential. Nonchildbearing potential is defined as follow (by other than medical reasons): 45 years of age and has not had menses for >1 year Patients who have been amenorrhoeic for <2 years without history of a hysterectomy and oophorectomy must have a follicle stimulating hormone value in the postmenopausal range upon screening evaluation Post-hysterectomy, post-bilateral oophorectomy, or post-tubal ligation. Documented hysterectomy or oophorectomy must be confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure or confirmed by an ultrasound. Tubal ligation must be confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure, otherwise the patient must be willing to use 2 adequate barrier methods throughout the study, starting with the screening visit through 180 days after the last dose of study treatment. Information must be captured appropriately within the site’s source documents.

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Clinically significant unrelated illness which would, in the judgment of the treating physician, compromise the patient’s ability to tolerate the investigational agent or be likely to interfere with the study procedures or results. 2. Patients with baseline QTcF > 480 msec. 3. Inability to swallow capsules. 4. Known hypersensitivity to any of the components of niraparib or prior hypersensitivity reactions to that class of drugs. 5. Known hypersensitivity reaction to temozolomide or any of its components, or dacarbazine (DTIC) if enrolled on ARM 1 or irinotecan or any of its components if enrolled on ARM 2. 6. Concomitant use of any other investigational or anticancer agent(s). 7. Pregnant patients or patients who are breast feeding. Subjects capable of pregnancy (post menarche and not post-menopausal, defined as over 12 months since final menstrual period) must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to first dose. 8. Other clinically significant malignant disease diagnosed within the previous 5 years, excluding intra-epithelial cervical neoplasia or non-melanoma skin cancer. 9. Active central nervous system disease. 10. Known history of MDS or AML. 11. Known persistent (> 4 weeks) ≥ Grade 2 neutropenia, ≥ Grade 2 thrombocytopenia or > Grade 3 anemia from prior cancer therapy

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary outcome measure is the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of niraparib and temozolomide (Arm 1), niraparib and irinotecan (Arm 2) and niraparib, irinotecan and temozolomide (Arm 3). |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Patients will have blood tests every 3 days for first cycle and clinical assessment including history examination and vital signs weekly to assess for dose-limiting toxicities in order to determine the maximum tolerated dose.. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
1. Tumour response rate (per RECIST 1.1) of patients with ES treated on the three different arms 2. Progression free survival (PFS), duration of response, and 4- and 6-month PFS rate of patients treated on the three different arms. 3. Evaluation of pharmacodynamic markers of response to PARP inhibition in combination with TMZ such as measurement of PAR, γH2Ax induction and other markers of DNA repair and DNA damage. 4.Evaluation and comparison of expression of candidate metastasis-associated genes and proteins in paired samples obtained from primary and relapsed tumors such as CXCR4, CXCR7, MKL1, MKL2 and LGR5.
|
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
1. Tumour response will be radiologically assessed every 2 cycles for the first 6 cycles, then every 3 cycles. 2. PFS and duration of response will be calculated every 8-12 weeks on the basis of radiological assessment. 3. Blood samples will be taken to evaluate PD markers at seven time points according to the protocol. Tumour samples will be taken pre-treatment, on treatment on Cycle 2 Day 8 as well as at the end of the treatment (optional). 4. This will be evaluated comparing archival tumour samples and biopsy tissue sample on study entry.
