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.

    E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
    MedDRA Classification
    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate that the combination of capecitabine plus oxaliplatin ("XELOX") is at least equivalent to the combination of 5-fluorouracil plus leucovorin plus oxaliplatin ("FOLFOX-4”) in terms of time to tumor progression or death (TTP) in patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma who have received prior treatment with CPT-11 in combination with 5-FU as first line therapy.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    • To evaluate and compare the efficacy (overall survival, overall response rate according to the RECIST criteria, time to response, duration of response, and time to treatment failure) in the two treatment groups.
    • To evaluate and compare the safety profiles of the treatment groups using the NCI CTCAE (version 3.0).
    • To evaluate and compare perceived treatment convenience and satisfaction with treatment for patients in the two treatment groups.
    • To evaluate and compare medical care utilization in the two treatment groups.
    • To offer patients participating in the study the possibility to also participate in the independent sub-study NO16967RG designed to derive pharmacogenetic information to facilitate research regarding prediction of response to specific drug therapy, susceptibility to develop adverse effects or progress to more severe disease, or identify genetic risk factors for disease.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Information not present in EudraCT
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    *) Male or female outpatients aged >= 18 years.
    *) Be ambulatory and have a ECOG performance status of <=2.
    *) Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum with metastatic disease.
    *) Patients whose disease has recurred or progressed during or within 6 months of completion of first line therapy with the combination of CPT-11 and 5-FU/LV, or patients stopping first line CPT-11/5-FU/LV combination therapy due to excessive toxicity within the first 8 weeks, as judged by the treating physician.
    *) First line CPT-11 + 5-FU/LV may include the following:
    - CPT11 + 5-FU/LV
    - CPT11 + 5-FU (if infusional 5-FU)
    - CPT11 + 5-FU/LV + concomitant (not sequential) targeted biological agent

    *) Previous chemotherapy (i.e., CPT-11 and 5-FU/LV) must have been completed at least 3 weeks prior to randomization and any acute/delayed toxicity must have resolved.
    *) Prior radiotherapy is permitted if it was not administered to target lesions selected for this study, unless progression of the selected target lesions within the radiation portal is documented, and provided it has been completed at least 4 weeks before randomization.
    *) At least one unidimensionally measurable lesion with a diameter >20 mm using conventional CT or MRI scans or >10 mm using spiral CT scans (use of spiral CT must be documented in medical records.
    *) Have a life expectancy of at least 3 months.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    *) Received more than one prior chemotherapeutic or other systemic anti-cancer treatment regimen in the metastatic setting.
    *) Prior active or passive immunotherapy for metastatic disease, unless in combination with first line CPT-11 + 5-FU/LV.
    *) Prior treatment with oxaliplatin.
    *) Pregnant or lactating women.
    *) Women of childbearing potential with either a positive or no pregnancy test at baseline. Postmenopausal women must have been amenorrheic for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential.
    *) Sexually active males and females (of childbearing potential) unwilling to practice contraception during the study.
    *) History of another malignancy within the last five years except cured basal cell carcinoma of skin and cured carcinoma in-situ of uterine cervix.
    *) History or evidence upon physical examination of CNS disease (e.g., primary brain tumor, seizure not controlled with standard medical therapy, any brain metastases, or history of stroke).
    *) History of psychiatric disability judged by the investigator to be clinically significant, precluding informed consent or interfering with compliance for oral drug intake.
    *) Clinically significant (i.e. active) cardiovascular disease e.g. uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, New York Heart Association (NYHA) grade II or greater congestive heart failure, serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication, or grade II or greater peripheral vascular. In addition patients with myocardial infarction within 1 year prior to study treatment start will be excluded (see appendix 10).
    *) Lack of physical integrity of the upper gastrointestinal tract, malabsorption syndrome, or inability to take oral medication.
    *) Interstitial pneumonia or extensive symptomatic fibrosis of the lungs.
    *) Known peripheral neuropathy  NCI CTC grade 1. Absence of deep tendon reflexes (DTRs) as the sole neurologic abnormality does not render the patient ineligible.
    *) Organ allografts requiring immunosuppressive therapy.
    *) Serious uncontrolled intercurrent infections, or other serious uncontrolled concomitant disease.
    *) Moderate or severe renal impairment [creatinine clearance equal to or below 50 mL/min (calculated according to Cockroft and Gault, Appendix 3)], or serum creatinine > 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN).
    *) Any of the following laboratory values:
    • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1.5 x 109/L
    • Platelet count < 100 x 109/L
    • Total bilirubin > 1.5 x ULN
    • ALAT, ASAT > 2.5 x ULN, or > 5 x (ULN) in case of liver metastases
    *) Alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 x ULN, or > 5 x ULN in case of liver metastases, or > 10 x ULN in case of bone metastases.

    *) Prior unanticipated severe reaction to fluoropyrimidine therapy, or known dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency.
    *) Known hypersensitivity to platinum compounds or any of the components of the study medications.
    *) Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to study treatment start, or lack of complete recovery from the effects of major surgery.
