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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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.

    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria

Adequate cardiac function (NHYA 0-1). 11. QTc <480 msec on screening ECG. 12. The patient is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study, and scheduled follow-up visits and examinations.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    A patient will not be eligible for the trial if any of the following apply: 1. Any radiotherapy or systemic melanoma therapy within 28 days prior to starting trial treatment, except palliative radiotherapy. 2. Prior whole brain irradiation. 3. CNS melanoma where all detectable disease has been treated by neurosurgery or stereotactic irradiation. 4. Presence of leptomeningeal disease. 5. More than 3 extra-cranial organ sites involved with melanoma. 6. Pregnant or breast-feeding women. Female patients must have a negative urinary or serum pregnancy test or have evidence of post-menopausal status (defined as absence of menstruation for >12 months, bilateral oophrectomy or hysterectomy). 7. Patients (both male and female) of reproductive potential who are not willing to use adequate contraceptive measures for the duration of the study (as detailed in the study protocol). 8. Clinically significant cardiovascular event (e.g. myocardial infarction, superior vena cava syndrome) within 3 months before study entry (defined as signing of consent form), heart failure (NYHA class 2 or above), presence of cardiac disease that, in the opinion of the Investigator, increases the risk of ventricular arrhythmia. 9. Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure greater than 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure greater than 100 mmHg, despite treatment). 10. History of arrhythmia (multifocal premature ventricular contractions [PVCs], bigeminy, trigeminy, ventricular tachycardia or uncontrolled atrial fibrillation), which is symptomatic or requires treatment (CTCAE version 4.0 grade 3) or asymptomatic sustained ventricular tachycardia. Atrial fibrillation, controlled on medication is not excluded. 11. History of QT prolongation with other medications that required discontinuation of that medication. 12. Congenital long QT syndrome, or 1st degree relative with unexplained sudden death under 40 years of age. 13. Presence of left bundle branch block (LBBB) on screening ECG. 14. Serum calcium, magnesium or potassium below the normal range despite supplementation. 15. Concomitant medications that are potent inducers of CYP3A4 function (see appendix 5 of protocol). 16. Concomitant medications with a known risk of prolonging the QT interval or inducing Torsades de Pointes (see appendix 4 of protocol). If the patient is on any such medications, they need to be stopped at least 14 days prior to day 1 dosing. If they cannot be stopped, the patient is excluded. 17. Ocular malignant melanoma. 18. Another active malignancy within the past five years, with the exception of cervical carcinoma in situ and adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. 19. Any clinically significant and uncontrolled major medical condition(s). 20. Any unresolved toxicity greater than CTCAE version 4.0 grade 1 from previous anti-cancer therapy. 21. Inability to swallow tablets, refractory nausea and vomiting, chronic gastrointestinal disease (eg: inflammatory bowel disease), significant bowel resection, or any other condition that would preclude adequate absorption of vandetanib. 22. Currently active diarrhoea that may affect the ability of the patient to absorb vandetanib or tolerate treatment-induced diarrhoea. 23. Patients who are known to be serologically positive for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C or HIV. 24. Major surgery within 4 weeks, or incompletely healed surgical incision before starting study therapy. 25. Other psychological, social or medical condition, physical examination finding or a laboratory abnormality that the Investigator considers would make the patient a poor trial candidate or could interfere with protocol compliance or the interpretation of trial results. 26. Treatment with any other investigational agent, or participation in another clinical trial within 28 days prior to enrolment.
