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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1.Provision of informed consent
    2.Male, aged 18 years or older
    3.Histological or cytological confirmation of adenocarcinoma of the prostate
    4.No evidence of metastatic disease, local recurrence or pelvic lymph node disease on:
    -CT scan of chest
    -CT scan or MRI of abdomen/pelvis
    -Bone scan (In the event that bone scans cannot be performed due to a Technetium 99(Tc-99) radioisotope shortage, please see section 4.6.6.1)
    Patients with prostate cancer involving the pelvic lymph nodes are acceptable providing that:
    a. In the opinion of the investigator the patient is not a candidate for local/salvage therapy
    b. Only a single lymph node is enlarged in which case there is no size limit OR if there are multiple enlarged lymph nodes then they must be ≤2cm in size (based on short axis measurement).
    c. There is no lymph node disease above the aortic bifurcation
    Patients with evidence of local disease progression or recurrence that the Investigator would normally treat with local therapy are excluded. A patient can be enrolled as long as any residual prostatic disease in the pelvis that was present at the initiation of castration therapy has not changed significantly and would not normally be treated by local therapy by the Investigator.
    5. Biochemical progression of prostate cancer, defined as at least 2 stepwise increases in a series of any 3 PSA values collected while the patient is castrate. The 3 PSA values selected do not need to be consecutive, and do not need to include the most recent PSA collected at or prior to study enrolment but must meet the following criteria:
    b. There must be at least 14 days between each of the 3 PSA values, and each must be collected no more than 1 year before enrolment into the study
    c. The last PSA value in the series of 3 must be either an increase of ≥25% of the first PSA or an absolute increase of ≥10 ng/mL over the first PSA
    d. The last PSA value in the series of 3 must be ≥1.2 ng/mL in patients who have had a radical prostatectomy and ≥5 ng/mL in all other patients
    a. Each of the 3 PSA values must be collected whilst the patient is under medical castration or is surgically castrated
    6. Continuously medically castrated with stable treatment for at least 8 weeks prior to study randomisation or surgically castrated. Acceptable medical castration includes luteinising hormone-releasing hormone analogues (LHRHa), estradiol, estramustine or other estrogen based preparations. Anti-androgens can be taken in conjunction with medical castration. Serum testosterone must be ≤2.4nmol/L (70ng/dL) at enrolment despite method of castration.
    7.World Health Organisation (WHO) performance status 0 – 1
    8.Life expectancy of 6 months or more.
    For inclusion in the genetic research, patients must fulfil the following criterion:
    1.Provision of informed consent for genetic research.
    If a patient declines to participate in the genetic research, there will be no penalty or loss of benefit to the patient. The patient will not be excluded from other aspects of the study described in this Clinical Study Protocol, so long as they consent to participate.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1.Current use (from the time that written informed consent is given) of any opiates, with the exception of opiates taken PRN for non-disease-related symptoms
    2.Definitive therapy to treat the patient’s primary prostate cancer (prostatectomy, radiotherapy, cryotherapy) within 3 months prior to study entry
    3.Prior cytotoxic chemotherapy (such as paclitaxel, docetaxel and mitoxantrone) for the treatment of recurrent prostate cancer (prior estramustine therapy is allowed), Prior targeted cancer therapies, such as EGF, EGFR, VEGF and VEGFR, or immune cell therapy, are only permitted if the patient received them during participation in a previous clinical trial.
    4.Use of intravenous bisphosphonates within 6 weeks prior to start of study treatment. Oral bisphosphonates for prevention and/or treatment of osteoporosis are permitted. Oral bisphosphonate dose must be stable for a minimum of 4 weeks prior to starting study treatment. Intravenous bisphosphonates are permitted after disease progression, however dose must be stable within trial
    5.Use of potent CYP450 inducers (such as phenytoin, rifampicin, carbamazepine and phenobarbitone, St John’s Wort) within 2 weeks prior to start of study treatment. Dexamethasone will be allowed if the investigator feels it is necessary but is encouraged to use a different form of steroid treatment wherever possible
    6.Use of systemic retinoids within 2 weeks prior to starting study treatment
    7.Have received investigational drug in another clinical study of anticancer therapy, within 4 weeks prior to starting study treatment
    8.Prior therapy with endothelin receptor antagonists or family history of hypersensitivity to endothelin antagonists
    9.History of past or current epilepsy, epilepsy syndrome, or other seizure disorder
    10.Stage II, III or IV cardiac failure (classified according to New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification) or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to study entry
    11.QT interval corrected for heart rate (by Bazett’s correction) (QTcB) >470 msec
    12.Previous history or presence of another malignancy, other than prostate cancer treated squamous/basal cell carcinoma of the skin, or melanoma that has been fully excised with no signs of residual disease or recurrence at the time of study enrolment, within the last 5 years

    14.Haemoglobin (Hb) <9 g/dL. Concomitant use of erythropoietin or blood transfusions is allowed
    15.Serum bilirubin greater than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN). This will not apply to patients with Gilbert’s syndrome (persistent or recurrent hyperbilirubinemia that is predominantly unconjugated in the absence of evidence of hemolysis or hepatic pathology), who will be allowed in consultation with their physician
    16.Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >2.5 times the ULN
    17.Creatinine clearance of <50 mL/minute, determined using the Cockcroft-Gault equation or by 24-hour creatinine clearance
    18.Patients who have been previously randomised in this study cannot be re-randomised. Patients who fail to meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria may be reconsidered once for participation in the study.19.Involvement in the planning and conduct of the study (ICON and AstraZeneca staff or staff at the study site).
    The following are regarded as exclusion criteria for genetic research:
    1.The patient has undergone a previous bone marrow transplant
