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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 compare the effect of prophylactic oral or enteric apixaban versus no systemic anticoagulant during ~28 days of induction chemotherapy including asparaginase on the composite endpoint of adjudicated non-fatal deep vein thromboses (DVT, including symptomatic and asymptomatic), pulmonary embolism (PE), and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST); and VTE-related-death. To assess the effect of prophylactic oral or enteric apixaban versus no systemic anticoagulant during ~28 days of induction chemotherapy including asparaginase on adjudicated major bleeding events.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and in compliance with all International Conference on Harmonization Good Clinical Practice Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial participants were followed.

    Notes
    [1] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: Anti-FXa Activity endpoint is measured for only participants randomized to apixaban.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    SAE's collected between first dose and 30 days after last dose of study therapy. NSAE's collected between first dose and 2 days after last dose of study therapy. All Cause Mortality collected from first dose up to DBL date: Sep-13-2021.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    256 is the number of subjects who randomized to each of Apixaban or SOC arm respectively. Only 250 subjects received apixaban dose. So the additional 6 subjects who randomized to apixaban but received no dose were classified into SOC.
