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   44020   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7318   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 ).

    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes
    E.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Optional Stem cells ENESTPath substudy:
    The Stem cells ENESTPath substudy adds the determination of Ph+ stem cells in bone marrow for those patients consenting to participate in the substudy.
    Objectives:
    - To evaluate the presence and number of LSC and their progenitors in the bone marrow of all patients participating in this substudy before and after completing induction and first year of consolidation phase (at Visit 8);
    - To evaluate if prolonging treatment re-initiationperiod of consolidation with nilotinib (patients in Arm 2 versus patients in Arm 1) induces a reduction in the percentage of patients presenting LSC and progenitor cells in bone marrow at the end of the second year of the consolidation phase
    - To perform an exploratory analysis in order to evaluate whether relapse in patients during the TFR phase in either arm correlates with the presence of LSC and progenitor cells in bone marrow at the end of the consolidation phase and at the time of relapse during TFR.

    "CML patients' voice" Italian substudy:
    The "CML patients' voice" Italian substudy will evaluate the emotional aspects in patients participating to a nilotinib Treatment-free remission (TFR) trial. This substudy aims to examine patients' psycho-emotional characteristics, quality of life and experiences of being involved in CAMN107AIC05 trial and its discontinuation using a qualitative- quantitative mixed method.

    - BCR-ABL transcript levels (IS) during the TFR phase
    - BCR-ABL transcript levels (IS) during the nilotinib re-treatment phase
    - PFS is defined as progression to AP/BC or death from any cause, where the "failure" event is the earliest occurrence of either of these events.
