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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To verify the superiority of a combined chemo-immuno-therapy compared to exclusive chemotherapy (ie, to demonstrate superiority of additional cetucimab to modified FOLFOX 7 compared to modified FOLFOX 7 alone) in first-line treatment of patients with KRAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer, in terms of objective response rate (ORR).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in compliance with the protocol, according to ICH-GCP current local laws and regulations, and with the ethical principles laid down in the Declaration of Helsinki.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The ERBIMOX study was an open-label, randomized, two-arm, multicenter, phase II study of first-line treatment in mCRC. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive modified FOLFOX7 with or without cetuximab. Patients were enrolled at office-based medical oncology practices.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Time of screening period: 30 days without a pre-assignment period. Patients were enrolled if inclusion and exclusion criteria were met. In total N = 196 patients were screened and randomized.
