Fight Osteosarcoma Through European Research Evolving Study Platform From Diagnosis to Relapse
Sponsor: Gustave Roussy, Cancer Campus, Grand Paris
Summary
This clinical study is the initiative of the FOSTER (Fight OsteoSarcoma Through European Research) consortium and Gustave Roussy, which is the sponsor. Its aim is to evaluate the biology of tumour in greater depth by collecting samples of the tumour during the biopsy at diagnosis, and blood samples. This study is a platform study that evolves over time. This means that it allows for the evaluation of several treatments or therapeutic strategies within a single clinical trial, which can be modified and adapted over time. The FOSTER evolving study platform aim to implement a comprehensive strategy of clinical, biological, radiological, therapeutic integrated research from diagnosis to relapse, with the aim to improve survival of osteosarcoma patients of all age, through randomised therapeutic questions at different phase of treatment from diagnosis to relapse. The platform study makes it possible to evaluate several treatments for the same disease, on an ongoing basis, using a main protocol with adaptable arms. The FOSTER-CabOS trial (part 2 of FOSTER study) is a European Phase III clinical study . It assesses the efficacy of cabozantinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, as a maintenance therapy post-standard treatment in osteosarcoma patients. The trial is randomized against Best Supportive Care to determine the effectiveness of cabozantinib in improving event-free survival. This maintenance therapy aims to prevent relapse among patients who have already received standard treatment for osteosarcoma.

Interventions
Experimental group : Cabometyx ® 40mg/m2/day (Max: 60mg/day) , Treatment schedule : Daily**, day 1-28 during 4 weeks (ie. 1 cycle) during 12 cycles
The intervention evaluated in FOSTER-CabOS is a maintenance treatment strategy using cabozantinib administered after completion of standard first-line therapy for newly diagnosed high-grade osteosarcoma. Unlike induction or salvage treatments, this intervention is introduced in patients without disease progression following standard treatment and aims to prevent or delay relapse. The study specifically evaluates the added value of 12 cycles of cabozantinib as maintenance therapy in a broad population of paediatric and adult osteosarcoma patients. This distinguishes the intervention from other osteosarcoma studies that typically focus on chemotherapy intensification, relapse treatment, or biomarker-selected population.
