Description/
Intervention:
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the benefits of
treatment with masitinib to no treatment in patients with mastocytosis with
handicap.
.
Study Objectives / Outcomes
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of masitinib at 6 mg/kg/day to placebo in the treatment of patients with mastocytosis with handicap based on treatment effect on the pruritus score, the number of flushes per week, the Hamilton score, and the Fatigue Impact scale.

Definition of: Response (improvement of >/=50% in at least one handicap: pruritis score, number of flushes per week, Hamilton score, Fatigue Impact Scale score)

Primary endpoint:

  • Responder rate at week 24

Secondary endpoint:
  • Response (success) in at least two out of three variables among pruritus, flushes, depression or Asthenia at week 12 and week 24
  • Pruritus score at week 12 and week 24
  • Number of flushes per week at week 12 and week 24
  • Hamilton score at week 12 and week 24
  • Fatigue Impact Scale at week 12 and week 24
  • Number of mictions per day at week 12 and week 24
  • Number of stools per day at week 12 and week 24
  • Number of anaphylactoid shocks at week 12 and week 24
  • QLQ C-30 scores at week 12 and week 24
  • Overall Patient Assessment (OPA) at week 12 and week 24
  • AFIRMM V2 score at week 12 and week 24
  • Percentage of patient without handicap at week 24
  • Mast cell infiltration in the skin or bone marrow at week 24
  • Serum tryptase level at week 24

Enrollment Eligibility
If you do not meet the enrollment eligibility, there may be other treatment options for you. Please Contact the Referral Office for more information.

Inclusion Criteria:1) Patient with one of the following documented mastocytosis: Smouldering Systemic, Mastocytosis, Indolent Systemic Mastocytosis, Cutaneous Mastocytosis.

2) Patient with documented mastocytosis and evaluable disease based upon histological criteria: typical infiltrates of mast cells in a multifocal or diffuse pattern in skin and/or bone marrow biopsy

These therapies should be maintained at the same dose during the study. No change in the symptomatic treatment of mastocytosis or administration of any new treatment of mastocytosis should occur.

4) Handicapped status defined as at least two of the following handicaps, including at least one among pruritus, flushes, depression and asthenia: pruritus score >/= 6, number of flushes per week >/= 7, Hamilton rating scale (depression) >/= 10, number of stools per day >/= 4, number of mictions per day >/=8, Fatigue Impact Scale total score (asthenia) >/= 40.

5) Patient with OPA >/= 2 (moderate to intolerable general handicap). 1-None; 2-Mild; 3-Moderate; 4-Severe; 5-Intolerable

6) ECOG </= 2

10) Patient should be able and willing to comply with study visits and procedures per protocol.

11) Patient should understand, sign, and date the written voluntary informed consent form at the screening visit prior to any protocol-specific procedures performed.

12) Patient must be covered by insurance for routine costs (applicable to European patients only).

Exclusion Criteria:1) Patient with one of the following mastocytosis: Systemic Mastocytosis with an Associated clonal Hematologic Non Mast cell lineage Disease (SM-AHNMD), Mast cell leukemia (MCL), Aggressive systemic mastocytosis (ASM).

2) Previous treatment with any tyrosine kinase Inhibitor.

3) Patient who underwent major surgery within 2 weeks prior to study enrolment.

4) Vulnerable population defined as : Life expectancy < 6 months, Patient with < 5 years free of malignancy, except treated basal cell skin cancer or cervical carcinoma in situ, Patient with grade III/IV cardiac conditions as defined by the New York Heart Association Criteria (i.e., congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within 6 months of study), Patient with any severe and/or uncontrolled medical condition, Patient with known diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
