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
    Assess the combination of efficacy and safety of the combination of rituximab, bendamustine, mitoxantrone, dexamethasone in the treatment of patients with Follicular Lymphoma who are refractory or in relapse.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Patients eligible for inclusion were those aged 18‐75 years who had been previously diagnosed (lymph node or tissue biopsy) by a local pathologist and fulfilled the following criteria: FL grade, 1‐3a; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score, ≤2; Ann Arbor stage, I–IV; Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (FLIPI), 0‐5. Patients to whom any of the following exclusion criteria applied were considered ineligible: previous radiotherapy treatment; relapse after autologous stem cell transplantation central nervous system involvement; previous or concomitant malignant disease; clinical suspicion or histological confirmation of transformed lymphoma (in the staging bone marrow biopsy performed on each patient or in a new lymph node or tissue biopsy performed prior to inclusion in some patients with clinical suspicion of transformation); previous or active infection with hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, or HIV; other serious immunosuppressive conditions; organ function deficits (liver, kidney, or heart) unrelated to lymphom

    End point description
    The primary endpoint is the number of Participants with Response according to the criteria of the International Workshop to Standardize Response Criteria for NHL Complete Remission (CR): Nodes returned to normal (if GTD >15 mm before therapy, GTD now ≤15 mm; if GTD 11-15 and SA >10 mm before therapy, SA now ≤10 mm) All (non-nodal) target lesions completely resolved Partial Remission (PR) SPD of target lesions decreased ≥50% from baseline Spleen and liver nodules regress by 50% in SPD or single lesion in GTD Stable Disease (SD) Not enough shrinkage for PR Not enough growth for PD Progressive Disease (PD): SPD increase ≥50% from nadir (smallest value seen during trial) in nodal target lesions overall or in any single nodal target lesion
