About this trial

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of different concentration gradients of sirolimus in the treatment of cystic lymphatic malformation.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The proportion of patients achieving an objective response at month 12

Objective response was defined as ≥20% reduction in LM volume compared to that at baseline.

Time frame
12 months

Secondary outcomes

1

The proportion of patients achieving an objective response at month 6

Objective response was defined as ≥20% reduction in LM volume compared to that at baseline.

Time frame
6 months
2

lesion responses

The primary endpoint was classified as follow: -Complete involution: 100% resolution of the measured LM; -Nearly complete involution was defined as decrease of ≥75% and \<100%; -Partial involution was defined as decrease of ≥20% and \<75%; -No change was defined as \<20% increase and \<20% decrease in the volumes of LM lesions; -Further growth was defined as ≥20% increase in the volume of index LM compared with the baseline volume measured. Lesion responses were overall lesion response rate and good lesion response rate. Overall lesion response comprised complete, nearly complete and partial involutions. Good lesion response comprised complete and nearly complete involutions.

Time frame
6 and 12 months

Quality of life (QOL) in patients

Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQLTM) 4.0 Genetic Core Infant Scales (\<2 years) or Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQLTM) 4.0 Genetic Core Scales (2-18 years) were used.

Time frame
12 months

Disease sequelae

Disease sequelae were assessed by site investigators at month 12. The site investigators assessed patients' extremity swelling (if any), general physical activity and exercise levels.

Time frame
