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   43881   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7295   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.

    E. General Information on the Trial
    E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
    E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
    MPM is a rare but aggressive tumour of the serosal surfaces (specifically the pleura and peritoneum) that is highly invasive and progresses rapidly. The main risk factor is exposure to carcinogenic silicate fibres found in asbestos, although genetic factors may also contribute. Tumours usually arise 30 or more years after exposure, and 80% occur in men.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Primary Endpoints:
    1) Overall Survival
    For all subjects, OS will be calculated from the date of randomization to the date of death. Subjects who are still alive at the time point of analyses, or who dropout prior to study end, will be censored at the day they were last known to be alive. If the sample is not enriched, the HR and 95% CI for treatment group will be estimated from a stratified Cox proportional hazards model overall and within randomization strata. In the case of enrichment, the HR and 95% CI for treatment group will be estimated from a Cox proportional hazards model including Merlin-negative subjects only. The adequacy of the model will be evaluated, including an assessment of the proportional hazards assumption.
    2) Progression free survival
    For all subjects, PFS will be calculated from the date of randomization to the earliest date of CT scan with a central reading documenting relapse, date of other unambiguous indicator of disease development, or date of death. The primary analysis of PFS will be based on the stratified log-rank test, and will use Kaplan-Meier estimation methods for estimation of summary statistics. P-values will be computed by combining results from the initial and primary PFS analysis as described in Section 11.2.3. of the Protocol. Subjects who have no documented relapse and are still alive prior to the final efficacy analyses, who dropout prior to study completion, or who have nonevaluable disease will be censored at the date of the last radiological evidence documenting absence of relapse. The HR with respect to relapse or death will also be calculated using Cox’s proportional hazard model, stratified by randomization strata. Additional exploratory Cox models will be used to determine the effect of other potential prognostic factors, including at least gender, age, histology, and prior surgery.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Subjects will be treated until disease progression (as confirmed by central review) or other discontinuation criteria are met.

    Each subject’s active participation in this study will last a minimum of approximately 3.5 months, including:
    • Up to 28 day screening period.
    • At least 6 weeks of study treatment. However, subjects may continue to receive additional study treatment until disease progression has been documented or other discontinuation criteria have been met.
    • Follow-up visit performed 30 days after the last dose of study drug.
    Following documentation of non-death related progression, all subjects will be followed for survival by telephone contact every 2 months until death or the close of the study.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Secondary Efficacy Endpoints:
    1) Quality of Life using the Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS) modified for mesothelioma
    2) Objective Response Rate

    Exploratory Endpoints:
    1) Time to New Lesion
    2) EQ-5D Health Assessment Questionnaire
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

    Each subject’s active participation in this study will last a minimum of approximately 3.5 months, including:
    • Up to 28 day screening period.
    • At least 6 weeks of study treatment. However, subjects may continue to receive additional study treatment until disease progression has been documented or other discontinuation criteria have been met.
    • Follow-up visit performed 30 days after the last dose of study drug.
    Following documentation of non-death related progression, all subjects will be followed for survival by telephone contact every 2 months until death or the close of the study.
