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   43870   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7289   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 ).

    A first cohort of 3 patients was treated at the starting dose level of Vorinostat 100 mg/d, on days 1-4, 8-11, and 15-18 in combination with Bortezomib, Doxorubicin and Dexamethasone (BDD). The dose level of Vorinostat was escalated in each new cohort: if no dose limiting toxicity had been observed in the previos dose level in 3 patients, the second cohort of 3 new patients were treated with Vorinostat 200 mg/d in combination with BDD and the third cohort was given Vorinostat with 300 mg/d in combination with BDD.

    Dosage and administration details
    Bortezomib was administered with a dose of 1.3 mg/m2 on d1, d8 and d15 intravenously (i.v.), or (after amendment) subcutaneously (s.c.). After the amendment in April 2013, Bortezomib administration was switched to s.c. whenever possible for the patient in the phase II, because results of another study had shown in the meantime that s.c. is as effective as i.v. application but had fewer sid effects.

    Primary: Maximum tolerated dose of Vorinostat

    Close Top of page
    End point title
    Maximum tolerated dose of Vorinostat [1]
    End point description
    Maximum tolerated dose of Vorinostat, given in combination with fixed doses of Doxorubicin, Bortezomib and Dexamethasone was defined as the highest dose of vorinostat at which six patients have been treated and less than two patients experienced dose limiting toxicity within the first cycle of treatment. No DLT occurred in 9 patients who were consecutively included in the phase I part of the study (levels 0, + 1 and +2) (see section 7.3), therefore the MTD for vorinostat could not be determined within this trial with planned vorinostat <loses up to 300 mg/d p.o.. Thus, the recommended dose of vorinostat for Phase II (RDP2) was 300 mg/d p.o.. With this dose the remaining 24 patients were treated throughout the phase II part of the study.
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    Maximum tolerated dose of Vorinostat is based on safety data from the first cycle.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: Descriptive analyses, as the primary objective of the study was the determination of the maximum tolerated dose of vorinostat.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    15 Apr 2013
    Bortezomib application was switched from i.v. to s.c., as s.c. has been shown (according to Moreau et al. 2011) to be equally effective but with fewer side effects. Ultrasound examination was included to diagnose soft tissue plasmacytoma. Adequate bone marrow function was redefined.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
