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 determine whether treatment with everolimus 10 mg daily plus best supportive care prolongs progression-free survival compared with placebo plus best supportive care in patients with advanced neuroendocrine tumor (NET) of gastrointestinal (GI) or lung origin without a history of, or current symptoms of carcinoid syndrome
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial.

    Primary: Probability of Participants Remaining Event-Free in Progression-Free Survival (PFS) based on central radiology assessment

    Close Top of page
    End point title
    Probability of Participants Remaining Event-Free in Progression-Free Survival (PFS) based on central radiology assessment
    End point description
    PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death from any cause, whichever comes first. Progression was defined using modified RECIST 1.0 and as per central radiology assessment as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameter of all measured target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameter of all target lesions recorded at or after baseline. Progression was assessed by cat scan and/or magnetic resonance imaging. For participants who had not progressed or died at the analysis cut-off date, PFS was censored at the date of the last adequate tumor evaluation date. An adequate tumour assessment is a tumour assessment with an overall response other than unknown. The percentage event-free probability estimate is the estimated probability that a patient will remain event-free in PFS up to the specified time point. Note: 999 indicates value is not estimable

    Time to definitive deterioration in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - General (FACT-G) questionnaire total score
    End point description
    FACT-G is a self-assessed health-related quality of life questionnaire. The questionnaire is comprised of 27 questions examining physical, social/family, emotional, and functional well-being. Participants responded to the items on a five-point scale, ranging from 0: "Not at all" to 4: "Very much." The total score ranges from 0 to 108, with higher scores indicating a better patient-reported outcome/quality of life. Definitive deterioration is defined as a decrease in the total score by at least 7 points compared to baseline with no further improvement. Death was considered as worsening of the FACT-G total score if it occurred close to the last available assessment, where “close” was defined as twice the planned period between two assessments. Patients without definitive worsening prior to analysis cut-off or prior to start of another anticancer therapy were censored at the date of their last assessment.

    Time to definitive deterioration in World Health Organization (WHO) Performance Status (PS) change
    End point description
    WHO PS is a scale rated from 0 (fully active) to 5 (death) by a healthcare professional to assess the overall status of a patient: a lower score represents a higher ability to perform daily tasks. Deterioration is defined as an increase of at least one point compared to baseline. Deterioration is considered definitive if no improvements in the WHO PS status is observed at a subsequent time of measurement during the treatment period following the time point where the deterioration is observed. Death was considered as worsening of the WHO PS if it occurred close to the last available assessment, where “close” was defined as twice the planned period between two assessments. Patients without definitive worsening prior to analysis cut-off or prior to start of another anticancer therapy were censored at the date of their last assessment. Note: 999 indicates value is not estimable

    End point description
    A pre-dose blood sample at day 29 was collected to determine the exposure of everolimus at the steady-state pre-dose concentration (Cmin). Cmin is provided for participants randomized to everolimus+BSC who received 10mg of everolimus daily and also for participants randomized to everolimus+BSC who received 5mg of everolimus daily which was required for a number of participants in the study experiencing adverse events requiring dose modifications

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    06 Jun 2012
    This amendment included changes aimed to improve consistency across the study, apply the Novartis guidance on prevention of pregnancy in clinical trials, modify the timing of the planned interim analysis, and to better align the study with standard of care. The amendment also included the addition of PK (sampling and analysis).
    28 Jan 2014
    Due to the rapid enrollment, the DMC meeting for the interim efficacy analysis (at 80% of the events) was predicted to occur when the number of events (N=176) for the final PFS analysis was already observed. Therefore, the interim analysis for PFS was canceled. The DMC and the Steering Committees agreed with the recommendation to cancel the interim analysis for PFS. Due to the cancelation of the PFS interim analysis, the first of the planned interim analyses for OS was canceled and replaced by a later interim analysis at 50% of the final OS events (at approximately 95 OS events)
    06 May 2016
    Following the crossover of patients on treatment with placebo to open-label treatment with everolimus (per DMC recommendation, 03-Jun-2015), the Visit Evaluation Schedule was updated to report a new End of Treatment visit, specific for patients who will discontinue the open-label treatment. All patients (still on treatment or in survival follow up) will be followed, as per protocol, until the end of the study.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
