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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    - age > 18
    - WHO performance status (PS) of 0-2 at study entry
    - measurable (bi-dimensionally with both diameters ≥1cm) / evaluable disease
    - adequate renal (serum creatinin <1.5x upper reference range), liver (total bilirubin < 1.5x upper reference range) and hematopoietic function (PMN>1,5x 109/L, platelet >100x109/L), PTT ≤ 1,5 upper reference range.
    - life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
    - effective contraception throughout the study for both male and female patients if the risk of conception exist.

    Exclusion criteria
    - metastatic disease not amenable to curative surgery (≥ liver, pulmonary metastases)
    - uncontrolled concurrent CNS, cardiac, infectious diseases
    - previous treatment (chemotherapy or radiotherapy) for this cancer excepted colostomy
    - known hypersensitivity to any components of study treatments
    - previous malignancy in the last past 5 years except basal cell cancer of the skin or preinvasive cancer of the cervix

    No other restrictions due to age or co-morbid conditions if surgery was not contraindicated.
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary objective of the study is to compare the achievement of a pT0-1 stage in each arm . The pT0-1 stage will be assessed as a binary variable.
    Assuming a rate of 20% pT0-1 stage in the radiochemotherapy arm, we calculated that we would need a sample of 110 patients (55 in each arm) to ensure 80% statistical power of detecting an improvement of 25% pT0-1 stage with a two-sided significance level of 0.05.
    Secondary end-points are tumoral and nodal down staging, sphincter preservation.
