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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To estimate the efficacy of BEZ235 in adult patients with advanced (unresectable or metastatic) pNET by means of Progression free survival (PFS) rate at 16 weeks according to local radiological assessment per modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumor (RECIST 1.1)).
    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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    This was a Phase II, two-stage, multicenter study, where Stage 1 was a singlearm,open label design and Stage 2 was planned to be a randomized, double-blind study. However, at the end of Stage 1, the futility was met and hence the Stage 2 was not initiated.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Initially , the patients were started at BEZ235 400mg bid dose regimen. The preliminary safety & tolerability data fro first 3 patients treated at this dose showed all patients reported AEs leading to dose interruption. It was decided to decrease the dose of BEZ235 to 300mg bid dose regimen.

    End point title
    Stage 1 -Progression Free Survival (PFS) rate analysis at 16 weeks as per local radiology review [1]
    End point description
    PFS rate at 16 weeks was defined as a binary variable. Patients were considered as ‘progression free’ after 16 weeks if they had an overall lesion response of complete response (CR) partial response (‘PR) or stable disease (SD)’ and “progressed” if they had an overall lesion response of ‘Progressive disease (PD) at the scan which occurred on day 105 after start of treatment, or later. Patients whose 16 weeks tumor assessment was unknown, missing or outside the window was not considered as ‘progression free’ and was considered a “failure” and counted only in the denominator for the estimation of the 16 week progression free rate. No statistical analysis was planned for this primary outcome.

    End point timeframe

    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Adverse Events are collected from First Patient First Visit (FPFV) until L:ast Patient Last Visit (LPLV). All Adverse Events reported in this record are from date of First Patient First Treatment until Last Patient Last Visit.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Consistent with EudraCT disclosure specifications, Novartis has reported under the Serious adverse events field “number of deaths resulting from adverse events” all those deaths, resulting from serious adverse events that are deemed to be causally related to treatment by the investigator.
