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   43861   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 compare the overall survival (OS) of subjects who received NKTR-102 given once every 21 days to subjects who received treatment of physician’s choice (TPC) selected from the following list of 7 single-agent intravenous (IV) therapies: eribulin, ixabepilone, vinorelbine, gemcitabine, paclitaxel, docetaxel or nab-paclitaxel.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was carried out in compliance with the protocol and in accordance with standard operating procedures. These were designed to ensure adherence to Good Clinical Practice, as described in the following documents: International Council for Harmonisation Harmonized Tripartite Guidelines for Good Clinical Practice 1996; United States 21 Code of Federal Regulations dealing with clinical studies (including Parts 50 and 56 concerning informed consent and Institutional Review Board regulations, and parts 54 and 312); Declaration of Helsinki, concerning medical research in humans (Recommendations Guiding Physicians in Biomedical Research Involving Human Subjects, Helsinki 1964, amended Tokyo 1975, Venice 1983, Hong Kong 1989, Somerset West, South Africa 1996, Edinburgh 2000, Washington 2002, Tokyo 2004, Seoul 2008).
    Background therapy
    		 -
    Evidence for comparator
    		 The TPC control arm consisted of a choice of one of the following 7 therapies: eribulin, ixabepilone, vinorelbine, gemcitabine, paclitaxel, docetaxel, or nab-paclitaxel. Oncologists have a relatively broad range of potential chemotherapies that demonstrate some anti-cancer activity in the treatment of subjects with advanced breast cancer whose disease has progressed following therapy with anthracycline, a taxane, and capecitabine (ATC). Factors affecting the choice are often balanced between efficacy, toxicity, and treatment schedule and are based on tumor and subject characteristics, subject preference, and health care/regulatory and economics policies. Because there is no consensus in the oncology community on a single standard of care for advanced breast cancer subjects who have progressed after treatment with ATC (particularly across the countries that participated in this trial) and these 7 drugs are all routinely used in the treatment of advanced breast cancer, the TPC arm represented the current best chemotherapeutic standard of care. Anthracyclines (such as doxorubicin) and capecitabine, are also commonly used in the treatment of advanced breast cancer; however, they were not included as TPC drugs because this subject population had, per the inclusion criteria, already been treated with these and may have been refractory.

    End point description
    PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomisation to the earliest date of disease progression (assessed by the investigator according to RECIST version 1.1) or death due to any cause. PFS was determined using the ITT population which included all subjects randomised into 1 of the 2 treatment arms. For subjects whose disease did not progress or who did not die, the PFS time was censored at the time of the last tumor assessment that demonstrated lack of disease progression. For subjects who received new anti-cancer therapy, the PFS time was censored at the start of the new anti-cancer therapy.

    End point description
    The QLQ-BR23 incorporates 5 multi-item scales to assess systemic therapy side effects, arm symptoms, breast symptoms, body image and sexual functioning, and 3 single items assess sexual enjoyment, upset by hair loss and future perspective. n=number of subjects who completed each individual scale. Because the number of patients that completed the HRQoL questionnaires decreased to below 10% of the population beyond 32 weeks, meaningful HRQoL analyses were not reliable after Week 32.

    		 Population Mean ± Standard Deviation (SD) Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) for NKTR-102 and Metabolites after Multiple Administration of 145 mg/m^2 NKTR-102 [25]
    End point description
    Plasma concentrations of NKTR-102 and its major metabolites irinotecan, SN38, SN38G, and APC were measured using validated analytical methods. The population pharmacokinetic (PK) model-derived mean AUC values were computed by integration from t = 0 (start of first dose) to 21 days after the last dose. Integration was implemented using a separate compartment defined as the amount of drug or metabolite in the central compartment divided by the model-estimated volume of distribution.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    24 May 2012
    The major changes made to the protocol were: 1. The requirement for the Xeloda® brand of capecitabine was amended to permit patients to receive generic capecitabine where available and approved by the local country Competent Authority. 2. Clarify that investigators selected a TPC that was approved by the Local Competent Authority and commercially available in that country. 3. A tissue acquisition protocol sub-study was added to the main study. 4. Clarification of Eligibility Criteria. 5. The United States Adopted Name for NKTR-102 (etirinotecan pegol) was added to the protocol. References to United States Pharmacopeia (USP) for diluents were removed. Documentation of the lot number of NKTR-102 administered to each patient was required in the electronic case report form. Shelf-life increased from 30 to 36 months based on additional stability data. Changes were also made to Dosing Modification, Supportive Care and Prohibited Medications. 6. For the TPC, nab-albumin paclitaxel was changed to nab-paclitaxel throughout the protocol, information regarding diluents (locally sourced) was added and references regarding USP were removed. 7. Modifications were made to the following procedures: the definition of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive disease was removed; added that patients received a Patient Information Card at time of consent; updated the instructions for bone scans; updated the text for laboratory tests for screening and treatment; updated the timing of PK sample collection; updated text relating to biomarkers, brain imaging, positron emission tomography–computed tomography, health-related quality of life and Health Economics questionnaires, and Safety.
