Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    STAGE 2
    •To demonstrate superiority in overall survival when bevacizumab is added to cisplatin and gemcitabine
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    STAGE 1
    •To study coagulation parameters
    •To characterize the pharmacokinetics of the combination bevacizumab, cisplatin and gemcitabine
    •To evaluate the relationship between baseline VEGF and clinical outcome parameters

    STAGE 2
    •To compare progression-free survival and time to treatment failure
    •To compare response rate and assess duration of response
    •To evaluate and compare the safety profile of patients treated with bevacizumab + cisplatin/gemcitabine versus cisplatin/gemcitabine
    •To evaluate the relationship between baseline VEGF and clinical outcome parameters
    •To assess quality of life in the two treatment arms
    •To analyze pharmacoeconomics in both treatment arms

    •Current or recent (within 10 days prior to study treatment start) use of full-dose oral or parenteral anticoagulants or thrombolytic agent for therapeutic (as opposed to prophylactic) purposes
    •Evidence of any other disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding or laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contra-indicates the use of an investigational drug or puts the patient at high risk for treatment-related complications
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Duration of overall survival defined as the time between randomisation and death. The primary analysis will compare the duration of overall survival between the placebo group and the bevacizumab group with the dose chosen for stage 2 of the study, for all patients randomised in stage 2 of the study.
