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   43857   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
    During the dose escalation phase, the purpose of the study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of panobinostat, administered in combination with VTD, in subjects with relapsed and relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. In the dose expansion phase the purpose of the study is to estimate the response rate (partial response or better) within 16 cycles of VTD-pano at the RD identified in the dose escalation phase.

    DLT was defined as any of the following events: • Total bilirubin ≥ Grade 3 according to NCI CTCAE Version 4 which fails to return to Grade 1 within 7 days. In participants with Gilbert’s Syndrome with grade 1-2 hyperbilirubinemia at screening, total bilirubin need only return to ≤ Grade 2 (within 7 days). • Any other non haematological toxicity ≥ Grade 3 according to NCI CTCAE Version 4 which fails to return to ≤ Grade 1 or baseline within 7 days. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and electrolyte imbalances will be considered DLTs only if they remain ≥ Grade 3 severity despite adequate supportive care measures. • Grade 4 neutropenia lasting 7 days or Grade 4 neutropenia with sepsis. • Any grade 4 thrombocytopenia which fails to return to Grade 2 within 7 days. • Prolongation of QTc ≥ Grade 3 according to NCI CTCAE Version 4.0 • Treatment Related Death
