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.

    Recurrence free survival (RFS) per Independent Review Committee (IRC) in the Intent to Treat (ITT) Population
    End point description
    Recurrence free survival (RFS) was programmatically determined based on the disease recurrence data provided by the IRC and was defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of first recurrence or death (whatever the cause), whichever occurred first. A participant who died without reported recurrence was considered to have recurrence on the date of death. For those participants who remained alive and recurrence-free, RFS was censored on the date of last evaluable post-randomization tumor assessment. For those who remained alive and had no recorded post-randomization tumor assessment, RFS was censored on the day of randomization. Participants with disease at baseline were considered to have an event on the day of randomization. The primary analysis was event-driven and planned when at least 512 RFS events assessed per IRC were collected. Intent-to-treat population: All randomized participants, analyzed in the arm to which they were allocated by randomization

    Number of participants with recurrence or death as per Independent Review Committee (IRC) in the Intent to Treat (ITT) Population [1]
    End point description
    Recurrence was defined as appearance of one or more new melanoma lesions: local, regional or distant metastasis. Computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were mandatory to establish recurrence. A participant who died without reported recurrence was considered to have recurred on the date of death. Disease was assessed at randomization and every 12 weeks (±2 weeks) for 3 years, then every 24 weeks until documented distant progression. Intent-to-treat population: All randomized participants, analyzed in the arm to which they were allocated by randomization

    Yearly recurrence-free survival rates, eg. at 1 year, defined as the probability that a participant was recurrence-free at 1 year following randomization, were estimated for each treatment group using the Kaplan-Meier product-limit method, along with their corresponding log-log transformed 95% confidence intervals. RFS was defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of first recurrence or death (whatever the cause), whichever occurred first. A participant who died without reported recurrence was considered to have recurrence on the date of death. For those who remained alive and had no recorded post-randomization tumor assessment, RFS was censored on the day of randomization. Participants with disease at baseline were considered to have an event on the day of randomization.

    End point description
    Global health status was measured using European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality Life Questionnaire (QLQ) C-30. This health related quality of life (HRQoL) questionnaire was comprised of 15 questions on functional scales, 13 questions on symptom scales and 2 on global health status scale. Global Health Status used a 7 point Likert-type scale of 1 (Very poor) to 7 (Excellent). All scales linearly transformed to 0-100 scales. Higher scores for Global Health Status indicate better HRQoL. An increase from baseline indicates improvement in HRQoL compared to baseline. All randomized participants (ITT) analyzed in the arm to which they were allocated by randomization were analyzed. At timepoint level, all randomized participants (ITT) with a measurement at the timepoint were analyzed.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    19 Jan 2009
    After careful review of a Serious Adverse Event (Grade 3 toxic epidermal necrolysis [TEN] with subsequent Grade 5 Sepsis) by the Data Monitoring Committee that has been established for the ipilimumab program, the dose skipping criteria for ipilimumab is being modified in order to make it more conservative. Because this is a safety amendment that is intended to avoid potentially life threatening events, all sites are asked to implement this amendment immediately (prior to IRB / IEC / HA review and approval). This revision applies to all subjects that are currently receiving ipilimumab therapy.
    29 Apr 2011
    In accordance with the FDA approved label, BMS now requires that all the patients participating in clinical studies with ipilimumab, regardless of the dose used, have their TSH level assessed at baseline and before each dose. Results do not have to be known at the time of dosing with ipilimumab as treatment modifications should be based on signs and symptoms related to endocrinopathies consistent with existing guidelines within the investigator brochure and protocol. If a subject has thyroid dysfunction and concomitant symptoms (i.e. fatigue), the subject should be monitored more frequently and be treated as per standard medical practice. TSH and free T4 levels should be obtained to determine if thyroid abnormalities are present. TSH, prolactin and a morning cortisol level will help to differentiate primary adrenal insufficiency from primary pituitary insufficiency. Appropriate hormone replacement therapy should be instituted if an endocrinopathy is documented.
    13 May 2015
    The main protocol is amended to follow the NCCN guidelines and Swiss guidelines, which describe that routine radiologic imaging to screen for asymptomatic recurrence/metastatic disease is not recommended after 5 years by NCCN and recommend to only perform a physical examination in recurrence-free patients after 5 years. [Ref. NCCN guidelines version 4, 2014, J Natl Compr Canc Netw. 2014 May;12(5):621-9); Updated Swiss guidelines for the treatment and follow-up of cutaneous melanoma. Swiss Med Wkly. 2011 Dec 15;141: w13320. doi: 10.4414/smw.2011.13320]. This amendment also includes updated background information as well as updated clinical safety data on the study medication and a new section of Adverse Event of Interest This amendment also includes update of contact details and some administrative updates and a change in nomenclature for HAHA into ADA
    25 Jan 2016
    With the change in treatment landscape of melanoma subjects, OS might be affected due to treatment with subsequent therapy and hence the potential treatment effect might be attenuated. Therefore, the final OS analysis will be performed at the time of the final DMFS analysis, recognizing the drop in power for OS (75% power anticipated). The applicable statistical sections have been updated accordingly. In addition, the protocol is being amended to include a long term follow-up phase. The main protocol is also amended to describe the end of activities of the several CROs (responsible for the on-site monitoring, medical monitoring/SAE contacts and Independent Review Committee) involved in the study, which will occur at the time of the DFMS/OS analyses. After the database lock for the DMFS/OS final analyses, the SAE contacts will change from the current CRO to BMS. Lastly, this amendment also includes update of contact details and some administrative updates.
