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
    The principal objective of this study is to evaluate how long whole brain radiotherapy plus vandetanib is able to control the progression of melanoma brain metastases, compared with radiotherapy alone.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial received ethical and regulatory approval, and was run in compliance with the Medicines for Human Use (Clinical Trials) Regulations 2004, and amendments thereafter, the guidelines for Good Clinical Practice, and the applicable policies of the Sponsor, the University of Oxford. Together, these regulations implement the ethical principles of the Declaration of Helsinki (2008) and the regulatory requirements for clinical trials of an investigational medicinal product as set out in the European Union (EU) Directives 001/20/EC (Clinical Trials) and 2005/28/EC (GCP). Patients also were seen for study assessments up to 30 days post end of treatment and thereafter every 2 months for clinical and radiological assessment up to a total of 12 months post randomisation.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    6 eligible participants were recruited to the safety run-in phase of the trial between 1st February 2012 and 14th February 2013. Between 24th April 2013 and 17th April 2014, 18 eligible participants were recruited to the randomised phase. The TMG met on 30 April 2014 and agreed to close the RADVAN trial early to recruitment with immediate effect.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    71 participants were screened. 47 patients were excluded/ineligible; 33 didn't meet the inclusion criteria (7 had poor performance status, 3 were unable to comply with protocol, 3 had a life expectancy <12 weeks, among other reasons), 12 patients declined to participate (of which 4 chose alternative treatment), and 2 patients did not give reasons.

    Dosage and administration details
    Patients in the randomisation phase received vandetanib/placebo 100 mg once daily (OD), starting 4 days (+/- 1 day) before Whole Brain Radiotherapy (WBRT) and continuing for 21 days in total, in oral tablet form. No study treatment was to be given beyond day 21, even if any doses were missed during this period. The exposure to vandetanib is unchanged whether given in the fasted state or with food and thus a restriction on dosing with food was not required. The dose of study drug was repeated if emesis occurred within 30 minutes of taking the tablet. If the patient inadvertently did not take the dose in the morning, he or she may have taken that day’s dose any time up to 10pm that same day. The study drug could therefore be taken before or after radiotherapy treatment. However, if a patient missed taking the scheduled dose and was unable to take the missed dose on the same day, he or she omitted the dose and took the next scheduled dose as planned. The missed dose was not made up.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    07 Feb 2013
    Protocol amendment to remove the exclusion criterion of no more than 3 extra-cranial organ sites involved with melanoma and removal of the neuro-cognitive tests. Both changes were made to maximise recruitment.
    11 Aug 2014
    Protocol amendment to describe the early closing of recruitment to the trial due to the inability of the trial to achieve its sample size in a timely manner and to reduce the follow-up period.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? Yes
    Date
    Interruption
    Restart date
    30 Apr 2014
    Recruitment to the trial closed on 30 April 2014 with 24 patients recruited (6 to the safety cohort and 18 to the randomised trial) following significant difficulties encountered in recruiting from this patient population. This decision was made by the Trial Management Group (TMG) and agreed by the Independent Early Phase Trial Oversight Committee (IEPTOC) following concerns that slow recruitment would lead to an inability to answer the research question in a timely manner.

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Early termination of the trial due to failure to recruit patients has led to a small number of patients analysed. This meant there was a lack of statistical power to detect differences between treatment arms.
