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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   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 ).

    Percentage of Participants with Death or Disease Progression According to Independent Review Facility (IRF) Assessment [1]
    End point description
    Tumor assessments were performed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1, using radiographic images submitted to the IRF up to and including the confirmatory tumor assessment 4 to 6 weeks after study drug discontinuation. Disease progression was defined as a greater than or equal to (≥) 20 percent (%) and 5-millimeter (mm) increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum obtained during the study, or appearance of new lesion(s). The percentage of participants with death or disease progression was calculated as [number of participants with event divided by the number analyzed] multiplied by 100. Analysis was performed on ITT population (all participants randomized in the study).

    Progression-Free Survival (PFS) According to IRF Assessment
    End point description
    Tumor assessments were performed according to RECIST version 1.1, using radiographic images submitted to the IRF up to and including the confirmatory tumor assessment 4 to 6 weeks after study drug discontinuation. PFS was defined as the time from randomization to first documented disease progression as assessed by IRF or death from any cause. Disease progression was defined as a ≥20% and 5-mm increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum obtained during the study, or appearance of new lesion(s). Median duration of PFS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis, and corresponding confidence intervals (CIs) were computed using the Brookmeyer-Crowley method. Analysis was performed on ITT population.

    [2] - The study was powered for superiority with target hazard ratio (HR) equal to 0.75, as well as for non-inferiority with HR equal to 1.1765 for comparison between each of the trastuzumab emtansine-containing arms and the trastuzumab + taxane arm. Non-inferiority was established if the upper bound of the 97.5% CI was less than (<) 1.1765. Superiority was achieved if the upper bound of the 97.5% CI was <1.00.
    [3] - Test and p-value apply for superiority test. Two-sided significance level of 2.5% was used to adjust for independent comparison between each of the trastuzumab emtansine-containing arms and the trastuzumab + taxane arm.

    [4] - The study was powered for superiority with target HR equal to 0.75, as well as for non-inferiority with HR equal to 1.1765 for comparison between each of the trastuzumab emtansine-containing arms and the trastuzumab + taxane arm. Non-inferiority was established if the upper bound of the 97.5% CI was <1.1765. Superiority was achieved if the upper bound of the 97.5% CI was <1.00.
    [5] - Test and p-value apply for superiority test. Two-sided significance level of 2.5% was used to adjust for independent comparison between each of the trastuzumab emtansine-containing arms and the trastuzumab + taxane arm.

    Percentage of Participants with Decline of ≥2 points from Baseline in Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status
    End point description
    The ECOG performance status is a scale used to quantify cancer participants' general well-being and activities of daily life. The scale ranges from 0 to 5, with 0 denoting perfect health and 5 indicating death. The 6 categories are 0=Asymptomatic (Fully active, able to carry on all predisease activities without restriction), 1=Symptomatic but completely ambulatory (Restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to carry out work of a light or sedentary nature), 2=Symptomatic, < 50% in bed during the day (Ambulatory and capable of all self-care but unable to carry out any work activities. Up and about more than 50% of waking hours), 3=Symptomatic, > 50% in bed, but not bedbound (Capable of only limited self-care, confined to bed or chair 50% or more of waking hours), 4=Bedbound (Completely disabled. Cannot carry on any self-care. Totally confined to bed or chair), 5=Death. Analysis was performed on safety population.

    Objective response was defined as having complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), assessed according to RECIST version 1.1, using radiographic images submitted to IRF up to and including the confirmatory tumor assessment 4 to 6 weeks after study drug discontinuation. CR: disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and short-axis reduction in pathological lymph nodes to <10 mm. PR: a ≥30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the Baseline sum. Response was determined using 2 consecutive tumor assessments at least 4 weeks apart. The percentage of participants with a best overall response of CR or PR (ie, the objective response rate [ORR]) was calculated as [number of participants meeting the respective criteria divided by the number analyzed] multiplied by 100.

    The FACT-Taxane is a self-reported instrument which measures health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of participants receiving taxane-containing chemotherapy. FACT-TaxS consists of 16 items (11 neurotoxicity-related questions and 5 additional questions assessing arthralgia, myalgia, and skin discoloration). Items are rated from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much) and total score is inversely derived. Scores may range from 0 to 64, with higher scores indicating fewer/no symptoms. A minimally clinically important difference in treatment-related symptoms was defined as ≥5% decrease (ie, 3.2 points) in FACT-TaxS score from Baseline. Percentage of participants with treatment-related symptoms was calculated using following formula: [participants meeting above threshold divided by the number analyzed] multiplied by 100.

    Percentage of Participants with a Clinically Significant Deterioration in Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) as measured by FACT Breast (FACT-B) Trial Outcome Index-Physical Function Breast (TOI-PFB) Score
    End point description
    The FACT-B is self-reported instrument which measures HRQOL of participants with breast cancer. It consists of 5 subscales including physical well-being (PWB), social well-being (SWB), emotional well-being (EWB), functional well-being (FWB), and a breast cancer subscale (BCS). The TOI-PFB score is taken by adding the scores from the PWB (7 items), FWB (7 items), and BCS (9 items) subscales. Items are rated from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much) and total score is derived. Scores may range from 0 to 92, with higher scores indicating better HRQOL. A 5 point change has been identified as the clinically minimal important difference (CMID) on the FACT-TOI-PFB scale. The percentage of participants with deterioration was calculated as [number of participants meeting above threshold divided by the number analyzed] multiplied by 100. Analysis was performed on ITT Population. Number of participants analyzed=participants with baseline and at least 1 post baseline FACT-B TOI-PFB score.

    End point description
    The RSCL is a self-reported instrument which consists of 4 domains including physical symptom distress, psychological distress, activity level, and overall global life quality. Only the activity level scale was collected and assessed. Scores may range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating increased burden of disease. Mean RSCL activity scale score changes were calculated as [mean score at the assessment visit minus mean score at Baseline]. The higher the score, the higher the level of impairment or burden. Analysis was performed on ITT Population. Here, 'n' signifies the number of participants with available data at baseline and Cycle 7 (Week 18).

    Change From Baseline in Work Productivity According to Work Productivity and Activity Impairment (WPAI) Questionnaire Score
    End point description
    The WPAI is patient-reported measure which assesses the effect of general health and symptom severity on work productivity and regular activities. The General Health questionnaire asks participants to estimate number of hours missed from work due to reasons related and unrelated to their health problems, as well as total number of hours actually worked in preceding 7-day period. Percentage of participants reporting that they were employed (working for pay) was assessed at baseline along with Absenteeism (work time missed), Presenteeism (impairment at work/reduced on-job effectiveness), Work productivity loss (overall work impairment/absenteeism plus presenteeism), and Activity Impairment. Reported changes represent change from baseline at Cycle 7. The score range for scales of the WPAI is 0 (no effect) to 100% (max effect). Number of participants analysed=participants from ITT population who were employed at baseline. Here, 'n' signifies the number of participants with available data.

    OS at Clinical Cutoff Among Those with High HER2 mRNA Levels
    End point description
    OS was defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause. Median duration of OS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Here, 9.99 represents data not applicable because median duration of OS was not reached due to insufficient follow up. Confidence interval values are censored values. Analysis was performed on ITT Population (High HER2 mRNA Subpopulation).

    Reporting group title
    Trastuzumab + Taxane
    Reporting group description
    Participants received trastuzumab plus either docetaxel or paclitaxel. The regimen was chosen at the investigator's discretion. Option 1: trastuzumab 8 mg/kg via IV infusion on Day 1 of Cycle 1, then 6 mg/kg IV on Day 1 of each subsequent 3-week cycle; plus a minimum of 6 cycles with docetaxel 75 or 100 mg/m^2 IV on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Option 2: trastuzumab 4 mg/kg IV on Day 1 of Cycle 1, then 2 mg/kg IV weekly beginning on Day 8 of Cycle 1; plus a minimum of 18 weeks with paclitaxel 80 mg/m^2 IV weekly. Treatment continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or study termination. If trastuzumab or docetaxel were discontinued for toxicity, the other agent could be continued as monotherapy.

    Reporting group title
    Trastuzumab Emtansine + Pertuzumab
    Reporting group description
    Participants received trastuzumab emtansine plus pertuzumab. Trastuzumab emtansine was administered as 3.6 mg/kg via IV infusion, following completion of the pertuzumab IV infusion, on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Pertuzumab was given as 840 mg IV on Day 1 of Cycle 1, then 420 mg IV on Day 1 of each subsequent 3-week cycle. Treatment continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or study termination.

    Reporting group title
    Trastuzumab Emtansine + Placebo
    Reporting group description
    Participants received trastuzumab emtansine plus pertuzumab-placebo. Trastuzumab emtansine was administered as 3.6 mg/kg via IV infusion, following completion of the placebo IV infusion, on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Treatment continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or study termination.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    07 Mar 2011
    Updates to the protocol included truncation of OS at 2 years as a secondary endpoint, addition of several quality of life assessments including FACT instruments, changes in the assessment schedule, clarification of the study population and eligibility criteria, and addition of treatment guidelines for cases of study drug discontinuation.
    11 Oct 2011
    The protocol was amended to remove an interim futility analysis and to specify the new nonproprietary name 'trastuzumab emtansine' (formerly T-DM1).
    29 May 2013
    The protocol was revised in order to allow for formal comparison of both trastuzumab emtansine arms, specify statistical assumptions, evaluate OS within high and low HER2 mRNA subsets, remove the clinical benefit rate (CR/PR/SD) as a redundant secondary endpoint, clarify committee procedures, further update the schedule of assessments, and add the option for participants to cross over to the best treatment arm if OS was more favorable in one of the trastuzumab emtansine arms.
    01 Nov 2013
    The protocol was modified to add safety guidance on hepatotoxicity, including updated language for hemorrhage and Hy's Law.
