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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To assess the efficacy of AZD6244 in combination with docetaxel, compared with docetaxel alone, in first line treatment of patients with wild type BRAF advanced malignant melanoma.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The protocol was conducted in compliance with the UK Clinical Trials Regulations, the Principles of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and the applicable policies of the sponsoring organisation. Together, these implement the ethical principles of the Declaration of Helsinki (1996) and the regulatory requirements for clinical trials of investigational medicinal products under the European Union Clinical Trials Directive.

    The primary endpoint is Progression Free Survival (PFS). This is defined as time from date of randomisation to the first of date of progression (using CT scan, x-ray, MRI scan and clinical examination) using modified RECIST criteria or date of death (events). For patients without an event, the time from date of randomisation to date last known alive will be the censored PFS time.

    Patients are assessed periodically for the response so progression is known only to have occurred at some time between visits, the exact time is not known. We carried out interval censored analysis as a sensitivity analysis to demonstrate if allowing for interval censoring gives a different interpretation of the primary outcome.

    End point description
    On 05Mar2013 (post final analysis) we had 64/83 (77%) patients with NRAS data available. The main analysis included the per-protocol sample. A sensitivity analysis will be carried out for patients who had changed BRAF status on re-testing carried out with the NRAS test. The ITT sample is not relevant to this analysis and NRAS is not available on all randomised patients. We have N = 77/83 (93%) in the PP-sample of which 60/77 (78%) have NRAS data and 75/83 in the sensitivity analysis sample of which 58/75 (77%) have NRAS data.

    The impact of NRAS mutation status (Mutated/Wild type]) on effectiveness of treatment in PFS was assessed by adding an interaction term with treatment in the COX model. What we mean by interaction is that the effect of the treatment may be different, depending on NRAS mutation status. Model also adjusted for stratification variables
