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
    Compare progression-free survival (PFS), based upon investigator assessment using RECIST v 1.1 in participants with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer who receive combination therapy with vintafolide and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) (i.e., vintafolide + PLD) with that of participants with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer who receive PLD and placebo. The primary analysis will be conducted in FR (100%) participants as determined by 99mTc-etarfolatide scan.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Preparation of the ICF is the responsibility of the investigator and must include all elements required by the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH), Good Clinical Practice (GCP), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) or other local regulatory requirements for protection of personal information, and other applicable regulatory requirements and must adhere to the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki. The ICF will be approved and reviewed by the sponsor prior to IRB/IEC review.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The first patient was enrolled in April 2011. <12 patients had enrolled into the study when enrollment was suspended from August 2011 through April 2012 due to an interruption in the study’s PLD supply. Once supply had been secured, enrollment increased such that ~57% of patients were enrolled within 12 months of the first planned interim analysis.

    Blinding implementation details
    Study EC-FV-06 is double-blinded in order to limit the occurrence of conscious or unconscious bias in the conduct and interpretation of the clinical trial arising from the influence which the knowledge of treatment may have on the execution of the clinical study.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The baseline period data include only those who completed the treatment whereas the worldwide number enrolled includes all patients enrolled.
