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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Primary: To evaluate if progression-free survival from randomization to progression or death during second-line therapy (total PFS) of sorafenib followed by sunitinib is at least as effective as sunitinib followed by sorafenib
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in compliance with local legal and regulatory requirements and in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards. All subjects were fully informed about nature, scope and possible consequences of the clinical trial in a language appropriate for the subject.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    04 Dec 2008
    Shorten the treatment-free period between first and second line treatment parts of this study from at least two to at least one week. Justification: The treatment-free period was introduced into the protocol to avoid additive toxicity from both drugs and to provide the patient with time for recreation between the treatment sections of first and second line. However, there can be circumstances that demand a rapid change from first to second line treatment. In those cases a treatment interruption of two weeks is deemed too long. Instead, one week between first and second line treatment is considered to be acceptable also from the pharmacokinetic point-of-view in terms of the elimination half lives of both drugs.
    08 Jun 2010
    Change of the statistical design from non-inferiority to superiority due to the results of retrospecitive analyses on sequential therapies with sunitinib and sorafenib. Reduction of number of subjects from 540 to 346, increase of number of centers. Extension of Duration of enrolement. Some other changes according to an updated summary of product characteristics of Nexavar and Sutent.
