Study Details

This is a pilot phase Ib study of the safety of dapagliflozin (in addition to standard of care treatment) for the treatment of pediatric patients with recurrent brain tumors and relapsed/refractory solid tumors. The primary hypothesis is that dapagliflozin is well-tolerated and safe to use in this patient population. The investigators also hypothesize that dapagliflozin will be efficacious as an adjunct to front-line chemotherapy assessed by decreased tumor markers mediated by its pleiotropic metabolic effects.

Arms

  • Experimental: Brain Cancer: Dapagliflozin + Standard of Care Chemotherapy (Ages 6-10)
    * Dapagliflozin will be initiated by mouth once daily at the same time as standard of care chemotherapy (carmustine). * Dapagliflozin 5 mg by mouth once daily on days 1-84 (duration of study) * All patients will stop taking dapagliflozin after 12 weeks of treatment.
  • Experimental: Brain Cancer: Dapagliflozin + Standard of Care Chemotherapy (Ages 11-29)
    * Dapagliflozin will be initiated by mouth once daily at the same time as standard of care chemotherapy (carmustine). * Dapagliflozin will be initiated at 5 mg by mouth once daily, days 1-4 (2 weeks) * Dapagliflozin will be escalated to 10 mg by mouth once daily for the remaining 10 weeks (after consultation with study endocrinologist) * All patients will stop taking dapagliflozin after 12 weeks of treatment.
  • Experimental: Solid Tumor Cancer: Dapagliflozin + Standard of Care Chemotherapy (Ages 6-10)
    * Dapagliflozin will be initiated by mouth once daily at the same time as standard of care chemotherapy (topotecan + cyclophosphamide). * Dapagliflozin 5 mg by mouth once daily on days 1-84 (duration of study) * All patients will stop taking dapagliflozin after 12 weeks of treatment. * Each cycle is 21 days.
  • Experimental: Solid Tumor Cancer: Dapagliflozin + Standard of Care Chemotherapy (Ages 11-29)
    * Dapagliflozin will be initiated by mouth once daily at the same time as standard of care chemotherapy (topotecan + cyclophosphamide). * Dapagliflozin will be initiated at 5 mg by mouth once daily, days 1-4 (2 weeks) * Dapagliflozin will be escalated to 10 mg by mouth once daily for the remaining 10 weeks (after consultation with study endocrinologist) * All patients will stop taking dapagliflozin after 12 weeks of treatment. * Each cycle is 21 days.
