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   7293   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 open-label, randomized, multicenter study evaluated subjects preference for subcutaneous (SC) versus intravenous (IV) trastuzumab (Herceptin) in subjects with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer responding to first-line treatment with IV trastuzumab for at least 3 years. Subjects were randomized to receive either 3 cycles (cycle length = 21 days) of trastuzumab SC followed by 3 cycles of trastuzumab IV or 3 cycles of trastuzumab IV followed by 3 cycles of trastuzumab SC. All subjects received trastuzumab SC for Cycles 7 to 18.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with the protocol and with the following: ● Consensus ethical principles derived from international guidelines including the Declaration of Helsinki and Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS) International Ethical Guidelines ● Applicable ICH Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines ● Applicable laws and regulations

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    20 Feb 2013
    In order to match to clinical practice, the screening period was enlarged (between Day -21 to Day 1 instead of Day -14 to Day 1) In order to match to clinical practice, the 9th inclusion criterion (mBC) was simplified Due to the modification of the Herceptin SC SPC, the 11th inclusion criterion was changed, as well as the modalities of treatment use
    21 Jun 2013
    Times windows were added for the visits during the treatment period and the safety follow-up visit (±2 days) and for the long-term follow-up visits (±7 days) In order to match to clinical practice, the 9th inclusion criterion (mBC) was simplified
    30 Jan 2014
    In order to match to clinical practice, cardiac safety assessments were required every 6 cycles (instead of 3)
    20 Apr 2015
    Due to the extension of the inclusion period (from 1 to 2 years), the total study duration covered 6 years instead of 5 years. After the 1-year T treatment period, patients were followed up to 3 additional years even in the event of disease progression in the meantime, to allow overall survival estimation.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
