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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    The primary objective of the study was to evaluate efficacy, in terms of pathological complete response (pCR) rate, at the time of surgery in patients with HER2 overexpressing or amplified (HER2+) operable breast cancer randomized to trastuzumab plus BKM120 placebo (followed by trastuzumab plus BKM120 placebo and paclitaxel) OR trastuzumab plus BKM120 (followed by trastuzumab plus BKM120 and paclitaxel) separately for PIK3CA mutant and wild-type cohorts.
    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.

    Rate of pCR (as defined by NSABP criteria - absence of invasive disease in the breast [ypT0]) is the number of subjects with pathological complete response (pCR) at the time of surgery. Subjects were to be considered in pCR if there was no invasive cancer in the breast or only non-invasive in situ cancer in the breast specimen. NSABP guidelines do not take into account the histological nodal status to define the pCR.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    28 Feb 2014
    The main purpose of the protocol amendment was to update and align the management of selected adverse events across the BKM120 program, specifically psychiatric disorders, hyperglycemia, stomatitis, skin rash and Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES). In addition, changes for clarification purposes had been implemented to the inclusion/ exclusion criteria, definition of post-menopausal status and pregnancy testing requirements, visit evaluation schedule, and tumor tissue samples collected at baseline. Furthermore, the sections on clinical and pharmacokinetic experience with BKM120, and in combination with paclitaxel and trastuzumab as well as concomitant medication use had been updated to align with the latest Investigators Brochure (IB) Update (Version 6) and recently published data. Finally, the timepoints of the interim safety analyses reviews by the IDMC had been updated and a section describing the TRC had been added.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? Yes
