This is the first trial to evaluate an irinotecan-based regimen in combination with antiangiogenesis tyrosine kinase inhibitors in Ewing sarcoma (EWS). A 3+3 design with dose de-escalation was used to determine the most appropriate dose of irinotecan in each cohort. The next dose-expanding phase II portion employed a conventional two-stage study design model. The objective response rate was 62.5% for adults and 83.3% for children. Median overall survival was not matured. This study shows that the combination of vincristine, irinotecan, and anlotinib demonstrates an acceptable toxicity profile and promising clinical efficacy in patients with advanced EWS.
