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   44363   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7387   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.

    progression with new tissue growth of at least 1 cm in longest diameter
    compared to nadir scan.
    NOTE: Patients must have completed treatment and recovered from all
    acute treatment-related toxicities prior to administration of first dose of

    13. Other severe acute/chronic medical or psychiatric condition or
    laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study
    participation or study drug administration, or may interfere with the
    interpretation of study results, and in the judgment of the Investigator

    eligible with appropriate use of anti-coagulant therapy.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary endpoint of the study is OS.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    The final OS analysis will be performed when approximately 560 deaths have been observed
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    The key secondary endpoints for this study are the PFS for all randomized patients and OS for patients with eLDH. Other secondary endpoints:
    - ORR, DCR, Duration of Response (DOR), emergence of new metastatic lesions
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    OS in eLDH will be analyzed in a similar fashion as the primary efficacy analysis except the stratification variable for LDH will not be used in stratified analyses.
    - PFS, where progression assessed at the investigative site is the interval from the date of randomization until tumor progression
    - ORR is the proportion of patients who achieve tumor response (CR or PR) per modified RECIST 1.1.
    - DCR is defined as the proportion of patients with best response, according to modified RECIST 1.1, of CR, PR, or SD.
    - Duration of Response (DOR) is measured from the time measurement criteria are first met for CR/PR per modified RECIST 1.1 until the first date that recurrent or PD is objectively documented.
