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 ).

    Number of participants with objective response [1]
    End point description
    Objective response of ofatumumab treatment was assessed according to the “revised response criteria for malignant lymphoma.” Participants with objective response were defined as responders with complete remission (CR) or partial remission (PR) of disease. CR is defined as the disappearance of all evidence of disease, and PR is defined as the regression of measurable disease with no new sites of disease. Full Analysis Set (FAS): all participants who were exposed to study drug irrespective of their compliance to the planned course of treatment. Response rate is calculated as the number of responses divided by the number of par. treated, expressed as a percentage. Objective response: Estimated value = 11%, 2-sided 95% CI=5% to 20%. The exact (Clopper-Pearson) method was used to calculate the confidence interval (CI).

    Number of participants classified as responders and non-responders for objective response [3]
    End point description
    According to the "revised response criteria for malignant lymphoma," responders included par. with CR and PR, and non-responders included par. with stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD). Par. not evaluable (NE) were also considered to be non-responders. PD is defined as any new lesion or an increase by more than or equal to 50% of previously involved sites from baseline. SD is defined as failure to attain CR, PR, or PD. Response rate is calculated as the number of responses divided by the number of par. treated, expressed as a percentage. Responders with CR: Estimated value = 2%, 2-sided 95% CI=0% to 9%. Responders with PR: Estimated value = 9%, 2-sided 95% CI=4% to 17%. Non-responders with SD: Estimated value = 17%, 2-sided 95% CI=10% to 27%. Non-responders with PD: Estimated value = 42%, 2-sided 95% CI=31% to 53%. Non-responders with NE: Estimated value = 30%, 2-sided 95% CI=20% to 41%. The exact (Clopper-Pearson) method was used to calculate the CI.

    Duration of response
    End point description
    The duration of response was defined as the time from the initial response (CR or PR) to the time of relapse, progression, or death. If the participant was lost to follow-up, the endpoint was censored, and the censoring date was the date of the last attended visit at which the endpoint was assessed. The upper limit of the 95% confidence interval could not be determined (not reached) because too few participants experienced the event; therefore, the value of 99999 was entered which represents NA.

    Time to next DLBCL therapy was defined as the time from the first infusion date to the time of the first administration of the next DLBCL treatment other than ofatumumab. If the participants were lost to follow-up, the endpoint was censored, and the censoring date was the date of the last attended visit at which the endpoint was assessed. The median and the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval could not be determined (not reached) because too few participants experienced the event; therefore, the value of 99999 was entered which represents NA.

    AUC is defined as the area under the ofatumumab concentration-time curve as a measure of drug exposure. AUC(0-168) is the AUC from the start of infusion to 168 hours after the start of the infusion; AUC(0-inf) is the AUC from the start of infusion extrapolated to infinity. Data are provided for the number of participants attending each visit for whom the parameter value could be calculated. Participants contributing AUC(0-inf) data also contributed AUC(0-168) data.

    Cmax and Ctrough for ofatumumab at the first and eighth infusions
    End point description
    Cmax is defined as the maximum concentration of drug in serum samples. Ctrough is defined as the minimum observed concentration prior to the start of the next dose. No drug is present prior to the first infusion; therefore, there are no Ctrough results for the first dose.
