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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    This study is designed to demonstrate superiority of Zometa® (Zoledronic acid) 4 mg or adjusted dose based on renal function, given every 3 months over 24 months (infusion at month 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21) in improving bone mineral density in premenopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer and neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemoendocrine or endocrine treatment compared to placebo.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Secondary objectives of the trial are to explore the influence of the therapy with Zometa® compared to placebo with regard to:
    •Bone mineral density (BMD) measured by DXA at dual hips and os calcis after 24 months
    •Bone mineral density (BMD) by QUS at os calcis and phalanges at 24 months
    •Course of biochemical markers of bone turn over (FSH, estradiol (E2), osteocalcin, PINP, procollagene-I-peptid, deoxypyridinoline in serum)
    •Pathologic Fractures (proportion of patients with at least one fracture, type of fracture(s), number of fractures per patient, time to first pathologic fracture) during 24 months
    •Development of metastases as assessed by X-ray, CT, bone scan or MRI (proportion of patients developing metastases, number and localization, metastases-free survival) during 24 months and during 60 months
    •Safety and tolerability (adverse events / serious adverse events; standard safety laboratory)
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Information not present in EudraCT
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    • Female patients with histologically confirmed incident invasive breast cancer (T1-4).
    • No evidence of distant metastasis (M0)
    • Patients under adjuvant chemoendocrine or endocrine therapy: Node negative (pN-) and Node positive (pN+; <= 4 positive lymph nodes) patients
    • Patients under neoadjuvant chemotherapy: no clinical evidence for nodal involvement
    • Hormone receptor status (ER and/or PgR) is positive (defined as >=10% receptor positive cells or >=10fmol receptor protein/mg cytosol protein or IRS >2)
    • Age >= 18 years
    • Patient is premenopausal: determined by spontaneous and regular menses at diagnosis of breast cancer or by premenopausal estradiol levels (>20ng/L) at diagnosis of breast cancer
    • Patient receives neoadjuvant chemotherapy or adjuvant standard chemoendocrine or endocrine therapy
    • Bone density at study entry > -2.5 T-Score
    • Patient has given written informed consent prior to any study-specific procedure
    • Patient should be available for Follow-up
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    •History of treatment or disease affecting bone metabolism (e.g., Paget’s disease, primary hyperparathyroidism)
    •Known visceral metastasis or bone metastases
    •Prior treatment with bisphosphonates
    •Previous or concomitant malignancy (not breast cancer) within the past 5 years except adequaetely treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the cervix. Patients who have had a previous other malignancy must have been disease-free for five years

    •Other known concurrent, severe medical disorder jeopardizing the life of the patient in the immediate future (e.g., myocardial infarction in previous six months, angina pectoris despite treatment, uncontrolled severe arterial hypertension, progressive cardiac or respiratory failure)
    •Known hypersensitivity to bisphosphonates
    •Abnormal renal function as evidenced by a calculated creatinine clearance < 30 mL/minute. Creatinine clearance (CrCl) is calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault formula:
    CrCl= [140-age (years)] x weight (kg) {x 0.85 for female patients}
    [72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL)]
    •Current active dental problems including infection of the teeth or jawbone (maxilla or mandibular); dental or fixture trauma, or a current or prior diagnosis of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), of exposed bone in the mouth, or of slow healing after dental procedures.
    •Recent (within 6 weeks) or planned dental or jaw surgery (e.g. extraction, implants)
    •Use of other investigational drugs (drugs not marketed for any indication) within 6 months before start of study and participation in other clinical study.
    •Pregnancy or lactation
    •Women of childbearing potential not applying a medically recognized form of contraception (i.e., oral contraceptives or implants, IUD, vaginal diaphragm or sponge, or condom with spermicide)
    •Known history or present abuse of alcohol or drugs (accepted social alcohol usage will not exclude the patient)
    •History of noncompliance to medical regimens and patients who are considered potentially unreliable or incapable of giving informed consent as judged by the investigator

An answer of yes could have included women of child bearing potential whether or not they would be using contraception. The answer should therefore be understood in that context. This trial was recorded in the database on 2005-11-29. Yes
