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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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 ).

    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this phase III study in subjects with metastatic and/or unresectable GIST who have progressed after therapy with at least imatinib and sunitinib is to compare the treatment groups in terms of Progression-Free Survival (PFS), per blinded central radiology review, according to RECIST criteria (version 1.1).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The secondary objectives are to compare the regorafenib and placebo treatment groups in terms of overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), disease control rate (DCR), tumor response rate (RR), duration of response (DOR), and safety of regorafenib.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary efficacy endpoint is Progression-Free Survival (PFS), per blinded central radiology review; the final analysis was to be performed when at least 122 PFS events had been observed. Based on the over-recruitment of 29 subjects to 199 total randomised subjects, the target number of PFS events is increased to maintain the grade of maturity of the study. The final analysis will be performed using a one-sided alpha of 0.01 when at least 144 PFS events have been observed.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    The analysis will be performed when at least 144 PFS events are observed.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Overall survival will be analysed with the same log-rank test as PFS. The final analysis of OS will be performed when approximately 136 events have been observed. 136 OS events will provide 80% power to detect a 67% increase when a 1-sided alpha of 0.025 is used. At the time of the PFS analysis an interim analysis of OS will be performed. An O'Brien-Fleming type alpha spending function approach will be used for determination of significance thresholds so that the overall 1-sided alpha for OS is 0.025 or less.
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    As 199 subjects were randomised instead of the originally planned 170 subjects, the number of survival events will be increased by the same ratio as the number of PFS events. The final analysis of OS will be performed when approximately 160 events have been observed. As a consequence, the power will be increased from 80% to 86%.

    F.5 Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)
    Since patients have been already treated with all therapies metastatic and / or unresectable GIST there are currently no other recommended approved treatment. Alternative treatments (experimental and/or not experimental) may include other drugs or drug combinations, radiation therapy, or supportive care therapy. Many doctors may choose to place patients in a clinical trial or treat patients for symptom relief only (best supportive care).
