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   43841   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7281   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
    The objective of this phase III study is to compare the efficacy and safety of sorafenib monotherapy plus best supportive care (BSC) versus placebo plus BSC for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory advanced predominantly non squamous NSCLC after 2 or 3 prior treatment regimens for advanced disease.

    The primary efficacy variable is overall survival (OS).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Secondary efficacy variables are progression-free-survival (PFS), disease control rate (DCR), best overall response rate (ORR), time to progression (TTP), and patient reported outcomes (PRO) on health related quality of life (HRQOL), lung cancer symptoms and utilities.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    Inclusion criteria must be met at the time of screening unless otherwise specified.
    • Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written Informed Consent. A signed Informed Consent must be obtained prior to performing any study specific procedures.
    • Advanced relapsed or refractory predominantly non squamous NSCLC. The diagnosis must have been confirmed cyto-/ histologically (documentation of original cytology/ biopsy result is acceptable).
    • Patients must have measurable or non-measurable disease as defined in Section 4.6.4.2. All sites of disease must be evaluated within 4 weeks prior to first dose of study medication.
    • At least 2 but not more than 3 prior standard treatment regimens for advanced NSCLC (Adjuvant or new-adjuvant anti-cancer treatments after which a relapse occurred within 1 year of therapy will be counted.

    - prior therapy with bevacizumab (Avastin) is permitted
    - prior therapy with standard EGFR inhibitors is permitted
    • ECOG Performance Status of 0 or 1
    History of metastatic brain or meningeal tumors allowed, provided definitive therapy (surgery and/or radiation) has been administered before randomization, no further treatment of brain metastases is planned, and the subject is clinically and radiologically stable for at least 2 months prior to randomization. (Patients must be asymptomatic ans off steroid treatment for at least 14 days prior to study entry (i.e. signature date of Study Informed Consent Form). Discontinuation of corticosteroid treatment must be done independent of study participation asper local standard of care and consent procedures).
    • Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
    • Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test performed within 7 days prior to the start of treatment (assessed centrally)
    • Both men and women enrolled in this trial must use adequate barrier birth control measures during the course of the trial and 4 weeks after the completion of trial
    • Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function as assessed by the following laboratory requirements to be conducted within 7 days prior to start of the study drug:
    o Haemoglobin > 9.0 g/dl
    o Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >1,500/mm3
    o Platelet count ≥ 100,000/µl
    o Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x the upper limit of normal
    o ALT < 2.5 x upper limit of normal (≤ 5 x upper limit of normal in patients with liver metastases)
    o AST < 2.5 x upper limit of normal (≤ 5 x upper limit of normal in patients with liver metastases)
    o Alkaline phosphatase < 4 x upper limit of normal (≤ 5 x upper limit of normal in patients with liver metastases)
    o PT-INR or PTT < 1.5 x upper limit of normal
    o Serum creatinine < 1.5 x upper limit of normal
    o Calculated creatinine clearance of ≥ 50 mL/min e.g. Cockroft-Gault (Measured creatinine clearance using EDTA, Inulin or 24hours urine methods is recommended for patients with equivocal results or low body weight). NOTE: The central lab will use the Cockcroft -Gault caculation. Measured creatinine clearance will be done locally only if needed.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Patients who meet the following criteria at the time of screening will be excluded:
    • NSCLC patients with predominantly squamous cell carcinoma histology
    Excluded medical conditions:

    • Non-healing wound, ulcer or bone fracture
    • Thrombotic or embolic venous or arterial events such as cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attacks), deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within the 6 months prior to the first dose of study drug
    • Previously untreated or concurrent cancer that is distinct in primary site or histology from NSCLC, EXCEPT cervical carcinoma in situ, treated basal cell carcinoma, superficial bladder tumors (Ta, Tis, T1). Any cancer curatively treated >3 years prior to entry is permitted. All treatments must be completed at least 3 years prior to study entry (i.e. signature date of Study Informed Consent).
