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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of azacitidine in patients with CMML.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Eligibility criteria were designed with patient safety as a primary concern and therefore none is unfairly excluded from or included in the trial. Consent: Informed consent will be taken by an authorised clinically trained member of staff who will ensure that the person will understand the purpose and nature of the study and what it involves, the benefits, risks and burdens and the alternative treatments to the study. They will also ensure the patient is able to retain the information long enough to make an effective decision with free choice. Patients will be allowed a minimum of 24 hours to decide if they would like to take part. Risks, burdens and benefits: The possible side effects of azacitidine are detailed in the patient information sheet. The side effects will be monitored closely and the dose adjusted to minimise these. If a patient experiences a severe reaction, then the study treatment may be discontinued and alternative treatment will be recommended. The trial is a 2 stage design to ensure regular safety checks are carried out during the study by the DMEC. The DMEC will review any treatment related deaths on a continuous basis. Confidentiality: All information collected during the course of the trial will be kept strictly confidential. Information will be held securely on paper and electronically at the Clinical Trials Research Unit (CTRU). The CTRU will comply with all aspects of the 1998 Data Protection Act.

    Dosage and administration details
    The dose of azacitidine administered must be based on body surface area (BSA) and is to be calculated based on actual body weight using a standard nomogram. The dose should be calculated on Day 1 of each cycle; the dose should remain the same throughout a treatment cycle but should be recalculated at the start of the next cycle. If a patient’s body weight changes by more than 10% compared with baseline body weight, or compared with a previous body weight that required a dose adjustment, then the patient’s dose should be recalculated. Azacitidine for subcutaneous injection (sc) should be asceptically reconstituted in 4ml of sterile water for injection under conditions approved by the hospital pharmacy. The dilutent will contain 25mg/ml (100mg/4ml). Doses greater than 4ml should be divided equally and injected in two separate sites.

    End point title
    Safety and tolerability [1]
    End point description
    Safety and tolerability are as defined by frequency of: a) azacitidine-related death b) any grade 3/4 non haematological adverse reaction. Adverse reaction is defined as adverse event judged by either the Principal Investigator or the Chief Investigator (or his delegate) as having a reasonable suspected causal relationship to azacitidine .Haematological is defined as relating to haemoglobin, leukocytes (total white blood cells), lymphocytes, neutrophils/granulocytes (ANC/AGC) and platelets, non-haematological is defined as other adverse reactions.

    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 trial and hence there is no comparative statistical anlaysis and merely an estimate of the proportion of the primary endpoints with a 95% confidence interval.

    Overall response rate is defined as the sum of clinical remission, good response and minor response determined according to Wattel et al (16) at day 28 of the sixth or last cycle of azacitidine (whichever is the earliest)
