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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   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 assess the response rate of anemia in patients with cancer to treatment with NOX-H94.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This clinical study was written, conducted and reported in accordance with the protocol, ICH GCP Guidelines, and applicable local regulations, including the European Directive 2001/20/EC, 2005/28/EC, and 2003/63/EC and relevant national and local legislations, and with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki. Only subjects that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were randomized. Study drug administrations were performed by qualified and trained study personnel. Patient who received treatment were closely followed by means of adverse event reporting and vital signs. In the event of a study related adverse event, patient would have been monitored to determine the outcome. The clinical course of the AE were followed up according to accepted standards of medical practice, even after the end of the period of observation, until a satisfactory explanation is found or the Investigator considers it medically justifiable to terminate follow-up.

    End point title
    Response Rate [1]
    End point description
    Treatment responders were defined by Hb increase ≥1 g/dL OR reticulocyte index (RI) normalization (≥1%) at any time point until 1 week after the end of treatment AND absence of all of the following treatment failure criteria until 1 week after the end of treatment: • Erythrocyte transfusion, ESA or i.v. iron • Hb drop by ≥1 g/dL • Treatment interruption due to adverse events (AEs)
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    Any time point until 1 week after the end of treatment.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: The primary efficacy endpoint was assessed descriptively only, no statistical analysis has been performed. For the primary endpoint only "responder: yes / no" was assessed according to the end point description above and counted.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    18 Feb 2013
    AT/BG: Amendment 1: The study population and few inclusion/exclusion criteria were modified: - The study population was enlarged to anemic patients with solid tumors. This change required also an update of the study title. - The cut-off value for TSAT was increased to 50% in accordance to the new definition of functional iron deficiency from the NCCN Guideline 1.2013. - The criterion on previous treatment with systemic anti-cancer therapy was deleted. The following exclusion criteria were added and protocol sections modified: - A known or suspected chronic bleeding. - Patients with tumor with gastro-intestinal involvement, without a negative test for fecal occult blood. The test was added to the screening procedures in this kind of patients. - Selection and withdrawal of patients (Section 7.1): The possibility to re-screen patients after an appropriate interval was introduced, in case the patient did not meet the selection criteria at the first screening visit.
