What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying the effectiveness and safety of Rapamycin (sirolimus), an mTor inhibitor, in people with complex vascular malformations that do not respond well to standard treatments like surgery or sclerotherapy. These malformations can cause chronic pain and serious health issues. This phase III multicenter study aims to provide better treatment guidelines by enrolling about 250 patients, including both children and adults. Participants with venous, lymphatic, or complex vascular malformations will receive sirolimus. The study evaluates sirolimus given as a drug to see if it improves the condition and is safe to use. This study includes ongoing treatment and monitoring over a period of up to two years. During the study, participants will regularly assess their symptoms and quality of life using a visual scale every three months. Researchers will also monitor any side effects monthly at first, then every three months. Imaging tests like MRI will measure changes in the malformations after 12 months. Digital photographs and other evaluations will help track treatment effects over the two-year period.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligible

You may qualify if you...

  • Patients with complex vascular anomalies that are refractory to standard care such as medical treatment, surgical resection and/or sclerotherapy/embolization (ineffective or accompanied by major complications)
  • Adequate medullary function: Hemoglobin > 10.0 g/dl, neutrophils >1500/mm³ and platelets > 100,000/mm³
  • Total serum bilirubin  1.5 x ULN (or total bilirubin  3 x ULN with direct bilirubin  1.5 x ULN in patients with well documented Gilbert Syndrome)
  • Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST)  3 x ULN (or < 5.0 x ULN if hepatic metastases are present)
  • Serum creatinine  1.5 x ULN or if higher, a 24-hour Creatinine Clearance  60 mL/min
  • Karnofsky performance status > 50
  • Ability to sign informed consent
  • Women of childbearing age must use contraceptive methods during the study period
Not Eligible

You will not qualify if you...

  • Severe or uncontrolled medical conditions that interfere with participation, including serious heart diseases such as unstable angina, recent myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, cardiomyopathy, or known prolonged QT interval
  • Impaired gastrointestinal function or diseases affecting sirolimus absorption, such as ulcers, severe nausea or vomiting, diarrhea of grade 2 or higher, malabsorption syndrome, or small bowel resection
  • Known allergy to drugs similar to sirolimus
  • Other severe or uncontrolled medical conditions like acute or chronic pancreatitis, liver cirrhosis, active chronic hepatitis, severe lung impairment with spirometry < 50% predicted or oxygen saturation < 88% at rest
  • Immunocompromised patients, including those with HIV
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women
  • Previous treatment with PI3K or mTOR inhibitors
