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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Prompted by slow recruitment and concerns about the feasibility of completing enrolment in a realistic timeframe, AstraZeneca and the Safety Review Committee (SRC) for the study agreed that it would be appropriate to conduct an unscheduled analysis of the efficacy (based on average change in tumour size) and tolerability data. The results of this unscheduled analysis did not show superiority of AZD4547 over paclitaxel in patients with advanced gastric cancer tumours that have FGFR2 amplification. Thus, it was concluded that the study was unlikely to meet its primary objective of demonstrating superiority of AZD4547 monotherapy over paclitaxel, based on PFS, and a decision was made to cease enrolment and close the study.
    Protection of trial subjects
    An SRC was appointed to review all available safety data at approximately 2-month intervals.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    This study was conducted in 11 countries. Enrolment started in November 2011 and last patient visit was in August 2013. In total, 960 patients were enrolled out of which 71 were randomised. A total of 67 patients received treatment , 40 of these patients received AZD4547 and 27 received Paclitaxel.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Patients ≥ 25 years with locally advanced or metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma that had FGFR2 polysomy or FGFR2 gene amplification and whose disease had progressed during or after 1st line therapy. Patients whose disease had progressed within 6 months following adjuvant or neo-adjuvant therapy could be included at the discretion of the investigator
