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.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The objective of this phase III study is to compare the efficacy of sorafenib in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin versus placebo with gemcitabine and cisplatin for first-line treatment of patients with stage IIIB (with effusion) or Stage IV NSCLC.
    The primary efficacy objective is to compare progression-free-survival (PFS) in patients treated with gemcitabine, cisplatin and sorafenib to PFS in patients treated with gemcitabine, cisplatin and placebo.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Secondary objectives include safety, overall survival and patient reported outcomes (PRO).
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No

    •Investigational drug therapy outside of this trial during or within 4 weeks of study entry
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary efficacy variable is progression-free survival (PFS).
    Progression-free survival is defined as the time (days) from date of randomisation to date of first observed disease progression (radiological or clinical, whichever is earlier) or death due to any cause, if death occurs before progression is documented. The actual date of tumor assessments will be used for this calculation. Progression-free survival for patients without disease progression or death at the time of analysis will be censored at the last date of tumor evaluation.
