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   43860   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
    To characterize the plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of Sunitinib and its active metabolite SU012662 in children and young adults with advanced, unresectable Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and in compliance with all International Council for Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were followed.

    Recruitment details
    The study was conducted at 4 centers in 3 countries between 12 June 2012 and 21 August 2017.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    This was a single arm, multi-center, multi-national study where a total of 6 subjects were dosed based on the body surface area. The starting dose of Sunitinib was 15 milligram/ meter square (mg/m^2) per day administered orally, from Day 1 to 28 in each treatment cycle of 42 days.

    Number of Subjects With Objective Response
    End point description
    Objective response in subjects was defined as the number of subjects with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Confirmed response were those that persisted on repeat imaging study for at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. CR was defined as disappearance of all lesions (target and non-target). PR was defined as at least 30 percentage (%) decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of target lesions taking as a reference the baseline sum longest dimensions, with non-target lesions not increased or absent. The full analysis set included all enrolled subjects regardless of what treatment, if any, was received.

    Duration of Response

    Duration of response: Time (in months) from the first documentation of objective tumor response (confirmed CR or PR) to the first documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause. Confirmed response were those that persisted on repeat imaging study for at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. CR: Disappearance of all lesions (target and non-target). PR: At least 30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of target lesions taking as a reference the baseline sum longest dimensions, with non-target lesions not increased or absent. Progression: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). Analysis was performed on a subset of FAS which included subjects who had confirmed CR or PR. Since, none of the subjects had confirmed CR or PR, hence duration of response was not analyzed.

    Progression free survival was defined as time (in months) from date of enrollment to the first documentation of disease progression or to death (due to any cause), whichever occurred first. Progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). The full analysis set included all enrolled subjects regardless of what treatment, if any, was received. The upper limit of 95% CI was not reached and has been denoted as 99999.

    AE: any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. As per NCI CTCAE version 4.0, Grade1= asymptomatic or mild symptoms, Grade 2= Moderate; local or noninvasive intervention indicated; Grade 3 events=medically significant but not immediately life-threatening, require systemic drug therapy/other treatment, Grade 4 events =subject to be in imminent danger of death. Grade 5 events=death. Subjects with any of the Grade 1 to Grade 5 AEs were reported. The PK evaluable subjects were divided into 2 PK subgroups on Day 28 of Cycle 1: those with total drug (sunitinib + SU012662) trough plasma concentration (Ctrough) value less than (<) the median Ctrough value(lower exposure) and those with total drug (sunitinib + SU012662) Ctrough values greater than or equal to (>=) the median Ctrough value(higher exposure).

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    11 Jun 2012
    The purpose was to revise The Schedule of Activities and associated protocol sections to include growth and pubertal maturation assessments for paediatric subjects, a reduced mandatory visit schedule after Cycle 3, and clarification of standard tumor analysis requirements. The term “chemotherapy naïve” was removed from the study design and the associated secondary objective to study tolerability in pediatric subjects with GIST.
    31 Jul 2017
    The purpose was to reduce the numbers of subjects enrolled in the study (in the range of age from 6 to < 18) from 15 to 6 evaluable subjects. The centralized review of imaging (ie, MRI, CT scans etc) aimed to confirm the efficacy endpoint was no longer required. As this study is part of a PIP, both these changes had been agreed with EMA’s Pediatric Committee (PDCO) and are aligned with the PIP binding elements.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
