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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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 safety of re-treatment with up to 6 doses of radium-223 dichloride 50 kBq/kg given every 4 weeks in subjects with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) with bone metastases who received an initial course of 6 doses of radium-223 dichloride 50 kBq/kg.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The conduct of this clinical study met all local legal and regulatory requirements. The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization guideline E6: Good Clinical Practice. Only after the subject voluntarily signed the informed consent form was he/she able to enter the study. If the subject was not capable of providing a signature, an oral statement of consent could have been given in the presence of a witness. Each subject was assured of the right to withdraw from the study at any time without any disadvantage and without having to provide a reason for this decision. Only investigators qualified by training and experience were selected as appropriate experts to investigate the study drug.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Overall, 59 subjects were enrolled into the study centers in 7 countries worldwide, from 22-Dec-2013 (first patient first visit) to 12-Apr-2017 (last patient last visit).

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    The study was conducted at 16 study centers that screened 59 subjects. Of them, 14 were screening failures and the remaining 45 subjects were assigned to treatment.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: Due to database constraint, number of subjects entering each study phase was reported as milestones.

    Time to total ALP progression
    End point description
    Total ALP progression was defined as a ≥ 25% increase above the nadir (lowest baseline or post-baseline) value to at least 1.5 x ULN (upper limit of normal). The time to total ALP progression was defined as the time (days) from the treatment start date to the date of first total ALP progression. Subjects not experiencing ALP progression at the database cutoff date, whether or not surviving, were censored at the last ALP laboratory assessment. An entry of ‘99999’ indicates that the value could not be estimated due to censored values.

    Prostate specific antigen (PSA) response was defined as a ≥ 30% reduction of blood PSA level compared with the baseline value, confirmed by a second subsequent PSA value with a ≥ 30% reduction from baseline approximately 4 or more weeks later. Prostate specific antigen response rate was defined as the number of subjects with PSA response divided by the total number of subjects evaluable for PSA response.

    Prostate specific antigen progression was defined as a ≥ 25% increase above the nadir (lowest baseline or post-baseline) value, and an increase in absolute value of ≥ 2 ng/mL above nadir. The time to PSA progression was defined as the time (days) from the treatment start date to the date of first PSA progression.

    Pain improvement was defined in evaluable subjects (subjects with worst pain score [WPS] of 4 at baseline) as a 30% and 2-point decrease in WPS over 2 consecutive measurements conducted at least 4 weeks apart, without an increase in pain management. Pain improvement rate was the number of subjects with pain improvement, divided by the total number of evaluable subjects WPS was the mean of the WPS in the last 24 hours from the preceding 7 days.

    Time to pain progression
    End point description
    Pain progression was defined in subjects evaluable for pain progression at baseline, i.e., subjects with a WPS of ≤ 7 at the baseline assessment. Pain assessment occurred daily for 1 week, beginning 1 week prior to each visit and including the day of the visit. An evaluable pain assessment interval required completion of a minimum of 4 out of 7 daily questions. Pain progression was defined as the occurrence of either a pain increase or an increase in pain management with respect to baseline, whichever occurred first. An entry of ‘99999’ indicates that the value could not be estimated due to censored values.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    19 Nov 2013
    The following changes were made: - Terminology changes, including the following which impacted endpoints: the pain endpoint was changed from pain response to pain improvement; skeletal-related event was changed to SSE. - Clarification of selection criteria of subjects for whom re-treatment was indicated, including baseline rising PSA level and substantial worsening of pain. - Specified that a separate, extended safety follow-up study protocol is being implemented and will capture the long-term follow-up of subjects on this study. - The definition of bone progression was revised based on the adapted PCWG2 criteria for consistency across the radium-223 dichloride program. - Assessment schedules for multiple variables were clarified or updated based on current regulatory requirements and recommendations.

    Interruptions (globally)
