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   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   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.

    To evaluate the following with 1) first-line trastuzumab/bevacizumab combination treatment and 2) with second-line combined trastuzumab/bevacizumab with chemotherapy (capecitabine or docetaxel) treatment:
    o Overall response rate (ORR)

    To evaluate the following for the study regimens combined (combined treatment with trastuzumab and bevacizumab with the addition of capecitabine or docetaxel at progression):
    o Overall survival (OS)
    o Safety and tolerability
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Male or female, age ≥ 18 years.

    4. Candidates for chemotherapy. Locally advanced disease must not be amenable to resection with curative intent.
    5. Most recent prior systemic treatment for breast cancer was adjuvant therapy that included trastuzumab. Disease progression must have occurred during adjuvant treatment or up to 12 months from completion of adjuvant treatment. Radiotherapy may have been received after adjuvant therapy, however patients should have recovered from any acute reversible toxicity.

    7. ECOG Performance Status ≤ 1
    8. Able and willing to comply with the protocol.
    9. Written informed consent, obtained prior to beginning any study-specific procedures.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Previous treatment for locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer other than radiotherapy. Patients must have fully recovered from side effects of any prior radiotherapy.
    2. Prior treatment with bevacizumab or capecitabine.
    3. Prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment with anthracyclines if the maximum cumulative dose was greater than 360 mg/m2 of doxorubicin or 720 mg/m2 of epirubicin.
    4. Chronic daily treatment with corticosteroids (dose of > 10 mg/day methylprednisolone equivalent) excluding inhaled steroids.
    5. Chronic daily treatment with aspirin (>325 mg/day) or clopidogrel (> 75 mg / day).
    6. Requirement for concurrent use of the antiviral agent sorivudine, or chemically related analogues, such as brivudine.
    7. Major surgical procedure, open biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to enrolment, or anticipation of the need for major surgery during the course of the study treatment.
    8. Current or recent (within the 30 days prior to starting study treatment) treatment with another investigational drug or participation in another investigational study.
    13. Other primary malignancy which could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results. Patients treated with curative intent and disease-free for at least 5 years and patients treated curatively for carcinoma in situ of the cervix or non-melanomatous skin cancer may be included.
    14. Evidence of CNS metastasis. If there is any clinical suspicion of brain metastasis, a computerized tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain must be conducted within 4 weeks prior to enrolment.
    15. Evidence of spinal cord compression caused by metastases.
    16. Serious concurrent disease which could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results, including, but not limited to:
    17. Active infection requiring IV antibiotics.
    18. Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic > 150 mm Hg and/or diastolic > 100 mm Hg).
    19. Clinically significant (i.e. active) cardiovascular disease as indicated by: cerebrovascular accident or stroke ≤ 6 months prior to study entry; myocardial infarction ≤ 6 months prior to study entry; unstable angina; New York Heart Association (NYHA) (see Appendix 4) Grade II or greater CHF; serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication; clinically significant valvular heart disease.
    20. Dyspnea at rest necessitating supportive oxygen therapy or with significant pleural effusions.
    21. Poorly controlled diabetes mellitus.
    22. Cardiac toxicity during previous trastuzumab treatment that necessitated discontinuation of trastuzumab.
    23. History or evidence upon physical/neurological examination of CNS disease unrelated to cancer (e.g. uncontrolled seizures) unless adequately treated with standard medical therapy.
    24. History or evidence of inherited bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy with the risk of bleeding.
    25. History of abdominal fistula, GI perforation, or intra-abdominal abscess within 6 months of study entry.
    26. Serious non-healing wound, peptic ulcer, or bone fracture.
    35. Pregnant or lactating females. For women of childbearing potential, serum pregnancy test to be assessed within 7 days prior to study treatment start, or within 14 days with a confirmatory urine pregnancy test within 7 days prior to study treatment start.
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    To evaluate progression free survival (PFS) following second-line therapy in patients who have received trastuzumab and bevacizumab as first-line treatment for metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer with chemotherapy (capecitabine or docetaxel) added to the regimen at first sign of progression (second-line therapy).
