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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) of SAR3419 in combination with rituximab.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Subjects were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time in language and terms appropriate for the subject and considering the local culture. During the course of the trial, subjects were provided with individual subject cards indicating the nature of the trial the subject is participating, contact details and any information needed in the event of a medical emergency. Collected personal data and human biological samples were processed in compliance with the Sanofi-Aventis Group Personal Data Protection Charter ensuring that the Group abides by the laws governing personal data protection in force in all countries in which it operates.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The study was conducted at 12 sites in France and Norway. A total of 85 subjects were screened between 22 November 2011 and 21 February 2013.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Of 85 screened subjects, 32 were screen failure; the screen failures were due to failure to meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Of 53 included subjects, 1 was not treated due to disease progression.

    End point title
    Objective Response Rate (ORR) [1]
    End point description
    ORR was defined as the percentage of subjects achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), assessed based on International Workshop Guidelines (IWG) Cheson 2007 criteria. CR was defined as disappearance of all evidence of disease. PR was defined as regression of measurable disease and no new sites. Analysis was performed on per protocol (PP) population including all treated subjects who had an evaluable response assessment during treatment or end of treatment visit and without any important protocol deviation impacting efficacy.

    Duration of Response
    End point description
    Duration of response was defined as the time interval from the date of first occurrence of complete response or partial response to the date of first documentation of disease progression (DP) or death due to any cause, which ever occurred first. Responses were assessed based on IWG Cheson 2007 criteria. CR was defined as disappearance of all evidence of disease. PR was defined as regression of measurable disease and no new sites. DP was defined as any new lesion or increase by ≥ 50% of previously involved sites from nadir. Duration of response was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Number of subjects with duration of response ≤6 months and >6 months are provided. Analysis was performed on PP population.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    22 Sep 2011
    - Pregnancy tests which were initially required at baseline and end of treatment Visit were performed at Day 1 of each cycle. - Contraception which was required to be continued during 3 months after the last treatment administration was extended until 12 months after the last treatment administration. - To provide the study name. - To correct the formulation and instruction for preparing and administrating the investigational medicinal product in the clinical trial summary and protocol.
    16 Dec 2011
    - To correct the schedule for tumor assessment in reference to response criteria Cheson 2007 applying to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) being a fluorodeoxyglucose-avid (FDG-avid), aggressive lymphoma. Both computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET) scans were performed for any subject at baseline and at the end of treatment Visit (42 days after the last treatment administration). For non-progressing subjects at the end of treatment, surveillance CT scans were performed 3 months during the follow-up period. - To remove the central reviews for both histology confirmation and disease response in this phase II Proof of Concept study. - To add the option of retrospectively using archived diagnostic biopsies in case of missing material for exploratory endpoint at study entry. - To answer the exploratory endpoint of the study, all subjects must had either a recent biopsy or a free needle aspiration (FNA) at study entry. Any effort should be done in order to obtain fresh biopsies. At the end of the study, the diagnosis biopsy might be retrospectively collected and used for the centralized analysis of the selected biomarkers defined in Hans and Choi algorithms. If necessary, a specific informed consent was to be obtained. - To revise the reporting of biological results in the safety follow-up period after further anticancer therapy was administered. - To add the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters as an endpoint of the interim analysis on the first 20 subjects. - To clarify the stopping rules and timing of the interim analysis. - To harmonize the safety follow-up period as a 42-day period.
