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   43839   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7280   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
    This study will use 3’-deoxy-3’-[18F]Fluorothymidine Positron Emission Tomography (FLT-PET) to assess the ability of a novel endocrine treatment for breast cancer, Irosustat, to slow down cancer cell growth.
    Protection of trial subjects
    At protocol conception three main areas of risk were identified as requiring specific inclusion/exclusion criteria and/or monitoring throughout the study: 1. Known adverse events: Muscoskeletal side effects, renal toxicity and cardiac toxicity were identified from previous studies as requiring specific inclusion/exclusion criteria and monitoring throughout the study. These were addressed in the study protocol, and patients were fully-informed of the known adverse events associated with Irosustat. 2. Possible drug interactions: Advice was provided in the protocol as potential for Irosustat to induce drug-drug interactions through inhibition or induction of CYP450 isoenzymes. The protocol included details of medications that were not permitted whilst on study treatment, and medications for which caution and additional monitoring should be applied if administered in conjunction with Irosustat. 3. Radiation Exposure: The total amount of radiation received in this study was equivalent to the total amount of natural background radioactivity that one would have received over the past seven and a half years by being resident in the UK. These exposures are considered very unlikely to put the patients’ health at risk. An independent, combined Trial Steering Committee/Data Monitoring Committee was convened to oversee the trial.
    Background therapy
    There were no protocol-specified background therapies. Concomitant medications could be prescribed at the treating physicians discretion, with the exception of prohibited medications described in the study protocol. Concomitant medications (and the reason for the medication) were recorded in the study database from consent until the patient's last study visit.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Three UK sites were opened to recruitment, three of these enrolled patients to the study. The first site opened to recruitment on 14/08/2012 and the first patient consent was on 07/11/2012. The study terminated on 26/11/12, after 13 patients had been enrolled.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    15 patients were consented to the trial. 2 were found to be ineligible and 13 were enrolled into the trial. Of these 13, three did not start trial intervention ( 2 FLT PET scan failure; 1 Adverse Event)

    Pre-assignment period milestones
    Number of subjects started
    15 [1]
    Intermediate milestone: Number of subjects
    Confirmed Eligibilty: 13
    Number of subjects completed

    Pre-assignment subject non-completion reasons
    Reason: Number of subjects
    Adverse event, non-fatal: 1
    Reason: Number of subjects
    FLT PET Scan Failure: 2
    Reason: Number of subjects
    Ineligible: 2
    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to have started the pre-assignment period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: 15 were consented and screened for the study. 2 patients were found to be ineligible during screening and 1 patient suffered an AE during screening and was withdrawn.

    Adverse events

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Adverse Events were collected from the time a patient signed informed consent until the end of follow-up. AEs were followed-up according to local practice until the event has stabilised or resolved, or until the last follow-up visit, whichever was sooner
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    AEs were reviewed at every patient visit. Disease progression was not classed as an AE. AEs we assessed for severity (NCI CTCAE v4.03) and causality by the local PI; the CI provided an assessment for SAEs. All AEs were recorded in the study EDC system.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    15 Nov 2012
    • End of trial definition amended to last patient, last data capture to bring it in line with latest guidance by the NRES. • Eligibility criteria: Decreased tumour size from ≥20mm to 15≥mm by either mammography, ultrasound examination or magnetic resonance imaging. This is the minimum tumour size that can be captured by a PET Scan for the purposes of this study. • Safety follow up visit amended to take place 7 days after the last administration of Irosustat instead of 30 days ( in line with the half-life of Irosustat). • Updated SAE reporting process
    05 Nov 2013
    • Removal of STS analysis: As a result of a reduction in funding funds are no longer available to carry out STS Analysis. • Increase to blood sample volume collected during PET Scans: The total amount of venous blood taken during each FLT-PET scan and analysed for the relative contribution of FLT and its metabolite FLT-glucuronide was amended to include the amount of blood taken, but discarded, after the line has been flushed. • The screening period for all assessments was changed from 21 to 35 days to allow patients whose pathology results are delayed to be included in the study.
    14 Jul 2014
    • Duration of collection of AEs: Protocol amended so that any unresolved AEs at the time of the safety follow up visit that are considered to be related to the IMP can be followed up and recorded in the database until resolution or until termination of the study. Any new AEs that occur after the safety follow up visit and that are considered to be related to the IMP should also be recorded in the database and followed up until resolution or the termination of the study. • Removal of requirement to fast prior to scan

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Defining response as decreases of ≥20% in SUV and ≥30% in Ki, we observed responses in 1 (12.5% (95%CI 2-47%, p=0.001)) and 3 (43% (95%CI 16-75%, p=<0.001) patients respectively.
