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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    The purpose of study CA204-009 was to evaluate the effect of elotuzumab in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone, (E-Bd; investigational arm) compared with bortezomib and dexamethasone alone (Bd; control group) in subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
    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 Conference on Harmonization Good Clinical Practice Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were followed.

    End point description
    PE was planned for after at least 103 events; it was analyzed after 111 events. Response was assessed: Day 1 (± 7 days) of each cycle per modified International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria; assessed using adequate tumor assessment (ATA) (ie, serum and urine M-protein tests performed within 14 days of each other; imaging if baseline measurable extramedullary plasmacytoma existed). Progression: Any of following: Increase of 25% from lowest response in 1 or more: serum and/or urine M-component; in those without measurable serum and urine M-protein levels, difference between involved and uninvolved free light chain (FLC) levels (absolute increase > 100 mg/L); Bone marrow plasma cell percentage (≥10%). Definite new bone lesions or soft tissue plasmacytomas or definite increase in the size of existing lesions or plasmacytomas. Development of hypercalcemia attributed solely to the plasma cell proliferative disorder.

    PE planned for after at least 103 events (progression/death); analyzed at 111 events. Those who neither progressed nor died were censored on the date of last adequate tumor assessment (ATA), which requires both serum and urine M-protein tests. If no post-baseline tumor assessments/no death, then censored on randomization day. Response assessed: Day 1 (± 7 days) each cycle; 30 and 60 days post treatment. Modified IMWG criteria used. Progression: Any of following: Increase of 25% in serum and/or urine M-component; if no measurable serum, urine M-protein levels, then difference between involved and uninvolved free light chain (FLC) levels (absolute increase > 100 mg/L) ; Bone marrow plasma cell percentage (≥10%). New bone lesions or soft tissue plasmacytomas or increase in size of existing lesions, plasmacytomas. Development of hypercalcemia attributed solely to plasma cell proliferative disorder.

    End point description
    ORR was calculated for participants with a best overall response (BOR) of partial response (PR) or better, including stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), and very good partial response (VGPR). BOR was determined by the investigator based on myeloma tumor assessments using IMWG criteria: CR=Negative immunofixation of serum and urine and disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas, and < 5% plasma cells in bone marrow; sCR= CR + normal FLC ratio and absence of clonal cells in bone marrow; VGPR=Serum and urine M-protein detectable by immunofixation but not on electrophoresis or ≥90% reduction in serum M-protein level + urine M-protein level < 100 mg per 24 hour; PR= ≥50% reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in 24-hour urinary M-protein by ≥ 90% or to < 200 mg per 24 hour. ORR= number of participants responding divided by total number of participants randomized, measured as a percentage.

Randomized participants with at least 1 FcγRIIIa V allele were a sub-set of all randomized participants.

    Elotuzumab + Bortezomib + Dexamethasone
    Reporting group description
    Subjects received treatment of Elotuzumab 10 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) intravenously (IV) with Bortezomib 1.3 mg/meter square (mg/m2) IV or subcutaneously (SQ). Dexamethasone 20 mg orally in tablet form was given on days when Elotuzumab is not administered, and 8 mg orally in tablet form + 8 mg IV on days when Elotuzumab is administered up to 62 cycles (each cycle is of 21 days for 1-8 cycles and of 28 days for 9-62 cycles).

    Reporting group title
    Bortezomib + Dexamethasone
    Reporting group description
    Subjects received treatment of Bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 IV or SQ and Dexamethasone 20 mg orally in tablet form to 55 cycles (each cycle is of 21 days for 1-8 cycles and of 28 days for 9-55 cycles).

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    25 Oct 2012
    Broadening the number of lines of prior therapy from 1 - 2 lines to 1 - 3 and allowing up to 15% of subjects to have had prior non-bortezomib proteasome inhibitor therapy. Broadening the stratification criteria to adapt to these changes, ie, stratification of subjects during randomization will be based on subjects have 1 versus 2 or 3 lines of therapy, instead of 1 versus 2 lines of therapy, and subjects being proteasome inhibitor naive versus having had prior proteasome inhibitor exposure, instead of bortezomib naive versus prior bortezomib exposure. Removal of the exclusion criteria describing subjects with uncontrolled diabetes defined as an HbA1c ≥ 8.0 and decreasing the disease-free interval for subjects with other prior malignancy from 5 years to 3 years. The dose modification guideline in reference to the adverse event of bortezomib-related peripheral neuropathy is modified to match the bortezomib Prescribing Information. Clarification that once subjects reach cycle 5 without any Grade 2 infusion reactions, the infusion rate at C5D1 should be increased by 1 mL per minute in a stepwise fashion in each cycle up to a maximum of 5 mL per minute.
