What this study is about
The goal of this clinical trial is to define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or Recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Tegavivint in combination with Gemcitabine in patients with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma (OS).

View original scientific description
The goal of this clinical trial is to define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or Recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Tegavivint in combination with Gemcitabine in patients with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma (OS). The study will also investigate the toxicities of Tegavivint in combination with gemcitabine in patients with relapsed or refractory OS.
Interventions
DRUG
Tegavivint
Tegavivint will be administered second, IV over 4 hours, on days 1, 8, and 15 at the dose level assigned at study entry Cycle length will be 21 days. A cycle may be repeated for a total of 17 cycles, up to a total duration of therapy of approximately 12 months.
DRUG
Gemcitabine
Gemcitabine will be administered first, intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes, on days 1 and 8 at a fixed dose of 1000 mg/m2
Primary outcome measures
Maximum dose tolerated
Time frame: upto day 21
The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Tegavivint administered intravenously over 4 hours on days 1, 8, and 15 at the dose level assigned at study entry in combination with gemcitabine. The MTD is empirically defined as the highest dose level at which no more than one patient is experiencing a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and the next higher dose level has been determined to be too toxic. The MTD will be determined during Cycle 1 (each cycle is 21 days)
Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria

- Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: ≥ 14 days after the last dose.
- Hematopoietic growth factors: ≥ 14 days after a long-acting growth factor (e.g., pegfilgrastim) or ≥ 7 days for a short-acting growth factor. For agents with known delayed adverse events, extend recovery period accordingly.
- Biologic (anti-neoplastic) agent: ≥ 7 days after the last dose. Extend period if adverse events occur beyond 7 days.
- Cellular therapy: ≥ 21 days since last dose (e.g., modified T cells, gamma-delta T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, dendritic cells) with recovery from associated toxicities.
- Interleukins, interferons, and cytokines (excluding hematopoietic growth factors): ≥ 21 days since last dose.
- Antibodies: 7 days or 3 half-lives (whichever is longer), up to 30 days. Toxicity must be resolved to Grade ≤ 1.
- Radiation therapy (XRT):
- 14 days after local palliative XRT (small port)
- 150 days after radiation to ≥ 50% of pelvis or bone marrow
- 6 weeks after substantial bone marrow radiation Prior use of Nucleoside Analogue (Gemcitabine): Allowed. Investigational agents not otherwise specified: ≥ 30 days since last dose. Surgery: ≥ 2 weeks since last major surgery, including pulmonary metastasectomy (central line placement and core/small open biopsies are excluded) Organ Function Requirements:
- Adequate Bone Marrow Function Defined As:
- Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 750/mm3 (0.75x109/L)
- Platelet count ≥ 75,000/mm3 (75x109/L)
- Adequate Renal Function Defined As: Creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR ≥ 70 ml/min/1.73 m2
- Adequate Liver Function Defined As:
- Bilirubin (sum of conjugated + unconjugated) ≤ 1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) for age
- ALT ≤ 5 x the ULN
- Adequate Pulmonary Function Defined As: No dyspnea at rest, no exercise intolerance, and no oxygen requirement (pulse oximetry \> 93% on room air).
- Adequate Cardiac Function Defined As: QTc ≤ 470 ms using Fridericia formula
Exclusion criteria
- CNS disease: Patients with a history of intraparenchymal CNS disease (osteosarcoma) are not eligible unless they have imaging documenting stability of CNS lesions for ≥ 3 months prior to enrollment
- Pregnancy or Breast-Feeding
- Female patients of childbearing potential are not eligible unless a negative pregnancy test result has been obtained
- Males or females of reproductive potential are not eligible unless they have agreed to use two effective methods of birth control, including a medically accepted barrier or contraceptive method
- Concomitant Medications:
- Investigational Drugs: Subjects who are currently receiving another investigational drug are not eligible.
- Anti-cancer Agents: Subjects who are currently receiving other anti-cancer agents are not eligible.
- CYP3A4/5 Agents: Patients currently receiving drugs that are strong inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A4 are not eligible. Strong inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A4 should be avoided from 14 days before the 1st dose of tegavivint to the end of the study. See Appendix II for a list of agents.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
