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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To determine the objective response rate to therapy with oral panobinostat in patients with refractory/relapsed classical HL using modified response criteria for malignant lymphoma.
    As of amendment 3, the primary objective of this trial has been met. The purpose of this amendment is to continue to provide study drug to patients currently deriving clinical benefit from treatment with panobinostat on this study, per investigator assessment, and to monitor safety while on treatment.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    • To determine response rate based on central review of CT scan/MRI
    • To assess the time to response
    • To assess the duration of response
    • To evaluate progression-free survival, PFS rate at 6 month and 8 month
    • To assess the safety and tolerability of panobinostat treatment
    • To assess overall survival
    • To characterize the PK of panobinostat, including the parent drug and any potential metabolite/s when feasible in at least 15 consenting patients with HL
    As of amendment 3, Investigators will follow and assess efficacy locally only, as per SOC for patients with HL.
