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   44380   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7392   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.

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: This is a single-arm, non-comparative study. Disease-free survival will be analysed descriptively using the Kaplan–Meier method. Median DFS and DFS rates at fixed time points with 95% confidence intervals will be reported. No formal statistical comparison between groups is planned. See PDF attached

    Adverse event
    Reporting group description
    In the population of patients aged >65 years who received at least one dose of treosulfan and underwent autologous HSCT, adverse events were collected systematically from first dose until day +90 post-transplant. All events were coded using graded according to NCI-CTC v3.0. Non-serious adverse events occurring in ≥5% of patients were reported. Extra-hematologic toxicities had a median grade of 2 (range 0–4). One patient experienced grade 4 pancytopenia resulting in death due to invasive fungal infection.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    18 Jan 2018
    With this non-substantial amendment, the need to extend the patient recruitment period for the protocol in question until December 2013 is being notified. This need arises from the failure to reach the planned patient sample, currently 6 out of 15, within the scheduled timeframe. The delay is mainly due both to the presence of competing allogeneic transplant protocols for the 65-70 years age group and to the frequent, sometimes fatal morbidities in patients over 70 years old during the disease treatment phases preceding this study

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Patient recruitment was slowed down both by the presence of competing allogeneic transplant protocols at the center for the 65-70 years age group and by the frequent, sometimes fatal morbidities in patients over 70 years old during the disease treatm
