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   43870   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7289   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
    The primary objective and endpoint of this study is to assess the effect of test doses of HM10460A on the Duration of Severe Neutropenia (DSN) during Cycle 1 in patients with breast cancer who are candidates for adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and in line with the requirements of national legislation. Research sites were provided with protocol and product-related training. Patients were closely monitored by investigator site staff to track any adverse drug reactions.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: One of the subjects withdrew consent before receiving SPI-2012 treatment and thus was not included in the efficacy population.

    Duration of severe neutropenia (DSN) in Cycle 1
    End point description
    DSN was defined as the interval from the day of first observation of Grade 4 neutropenia (ANC < 0.5 x 10^9/L ) to the first ANC recovery to ≥ 2.0 x 10^9/L in Cycle 1. Treatment differences in DSN in Cycle 1 were analysed using confidence intervals (CIs) based upon 10,000 bootstrap samples stratified by baseline weight (<65 kg, ≥ 65 kg and ≤ 75 kg or >75 kg). For each sample, the difference between treatment arms was calculated. Two-sided CIs and p-values were used to calculate the difference in mean DSN of patients between any 2 arms.

    Duration of severe neutropenia (DSN) in Cycle 3
    End point description
    DSN was defined as the interval from the day of first observation of Grade 4 neutropenia (ANC < 0.5 x 10^9/L ) to the first ANC recovery to ≥ 2.0 x 10^9/L in Cycle 3. Treatment differences in DSN in Cycle 3 were analysed using confidence intervals (CIs) based upon 10,000 bootstrap samples stratified by baseline weight (<65 kg, ≥ 65 kg and ≤ 75 kg or >75 kg). For each sample, the difference between treatment arms was calculated. Two-sided CIs and p-values were used to calculate the difference in mean DSN of patients between any 2 arms.

    Depth of ANC Nadir in Cycle 4
    End point description
    Time to ANC nadir was defined as the time from chemotherapy administration until the occurrence of the ANC nadir. Depth of ANC nadir was defined as the lowest ANC value in each cycle. The log10 transformation was used on the nadirs to satisfy the normality assumption. The nadir ratio between any 2 arms, associated 95% 2-sided CI and p-value assuming asymptomatic normality on the log transformed.

    Immunogenicity
    End point description
    Number (or percentage) of patients who demonstrated treatment-induced formation of antidrug antibodies (ADA) in the G-CSF confirmatory assay was determined. The result was the presence of two patients out of 100 patients (2%) in the SPI-2012 arms who were negative pre-dose (C1D1) and displayed treatment-induced formation of ADA post-dose to both SPI 2012 and G-CSF. One out of 25 (4%) patients treated with pegfilgrastim, who were negative pre-dose, was positive for antibodies binding to SPI-2012 and G-CSF. These results indicate that SPI 2012 and pegfilgrastim are minimally immunogenic.
