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   43846   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The main objective of the study was to evaluate the long-term safety of siltuximab in subjects with Multicentric Castleman’s Disease Symptom (MCD).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The safety assessments included severity of adverse events (AEs) reported throughout the study, with a focus on infections, hyperlipidemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, gastrointestinal (GI) perforations, infusion-related reactions, liver enzyme abnormalities, and immunogenicity changes; clinical laboratory test values (hematology, biochemistry, and coagulation parameters); vital sign measurements; 12-lead ECG; and physical examination (including weight and height).

    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical event that occurs in a subject administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product. Safety analysis set included all enrolled subjects in this study.

    Percentage of Previously Responding Subjects who Maintained Disease Control
    End point description
    Percentage of subjects maintaining disease control (defined as stable or better response) was defined as the percentage of previously responding subjects who had not progressed during the long-term safety extension based on investigator assessment. A worsening in any of the measures will be considered as a progression of the disease.Population included subset of safety analysis set who previously responded to siltuximab treatment ie, did not report disease progression while receiving siltuximab in study C0328T03 or CNTO328MCD2001.

    Percentage of subjects experiencing disease control was defined as the percentage of siltuximab-naïve subjects who had stable or better response during the long-term safety extension based on investigator’s judgment. Disease control was defined as stable or better response assessed by the investigators. Population included subset of safety analysis set who were previously Siltuximab-naive i.e., received placebo in study CNTO328MCD2001 and never received siltuximab prior to enrollment in this study.

    Duration of Disease Control
    End point description
    Duration of disease control (DODC) was defined as the time from the first siltuximab administration in this study to disease progression as assessed by the investigator. Disease control was defined as stable or better response assessed by the investigators. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the duration of disease control. '99999' indicates median and CI were not estimable due to insufficient number of subjects with loss of response or disease control (due to high censorship rate). Safety analysis set included all enrolled subjects in this study.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    19 Jan 2012
    The overall reason for the amendment was to update the secondary objective for biomarkers, implement the legal entity name change, and make small corrections and clarifications.
    14 Jun 2012
    The overall reason for the amendment was to add a data cutoff for an interim analysis, to add survival follow-up for those who discontinued treatment, to remove an exclusion criterion for those on intervening treatment for Castleman’s disease, and to adapt the Time and Events schedule for the 6-week dosing interval.
    17 Nov 2012
    The overall reason for the amendment was to add additional safety evaluations for those subjects entering the study who are naïve to treatment with siltuximab.
    04 Apr 2014
    The overall reason for the amendment was to extend the duration of this study to fulfill postmarketing commitments to report safety, efficacy, and survival during long-term treatment with siltuximab, and to stop collecting data that are not required for the final study report.
