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   44399   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7411   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 ).

    Major Pathological Response (mpR) rate
    End point description
    Pathological response was assessed centrally using the Becker regression grading. Histopathologists were blinded to treatment allocation. Major pathological response is defined as major tumor regression (<10% vital residual tumor cells). The mpR rate is computed in each arm as the percentage of patients who had mpR after neoadjuvant treatment. Patients not resected were considered as not having major pathological response. MpR rate in each arm is calculated in the per protocol population with its exact 2-sided 95% confidence interval.

To address comments received after the VHP submission to competent authorities about the minimization procedure used for randomization, it was specified that no random component was added to the minimization algorithm and a reference to appendix K was added in the corresponding protocol section. 2. To address the comment received after the VHP submission to competent authorities that the trial protocol does not state how missing values will be handled, it was clarified in the protocol section on “Statistical methods” that the primary analysis of the major pathological response rate will be performed in the per-protocol population with a non-missing assessment of pathological response. This will include all patients in the per protocol population who: ♦ have been resected, and for whom the tumor regression according to Becker et al. has been assessed by the central pathology laboratory or ♦ have not been operated or resected for any reason and will be considered as not having a major pathological response in the analysis. Missing data for the primary endpoint will only occur if a patient is resected and the pathological assessment of the resection specimen is not possible. These patients will be removed from the analysis. 3. The maximum total number of patients to be screened in order to randomize the required 225 patients with HER-2 positive disease was modified to reflect the recent knowledge published in the literature about the frequency of HER-2 positivity in Gastric cancer. This frequency could indeed be as low as 10% and therefore a maximum of 2250 patients will have to be screened. 4. ISH (In Situ Hybridization) has been mentioned instead of FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) for South Korea.

    Roche Protocol Review Committee feedback led to a decision to follow patients longer after pertuzumab and trastuzumab exposure in terms of pregnancy. In the amendment, any new pregnancy within 6 months after last dose of pertuzumab (within 7 months after last dose of trastuzumab as per the Herceptin Global Enhanced PV Pregnancy Program) must be reported to the EORTC Pharmacovigilance Unit. The current protocol requires reporting up to 180 days, and this time frame was extended up to 7 months with this amendment.

    1. Change of chemotherapy backbone: in Europe, the regimen was to be selected between FLOT, CapOX por mFOLFOX6; in Asia, cisplatin + capecitabine or 5-FU. This scientific amendment was necessary after the presentation of the results of the FLOT-4-trial at ASCO 2017, which demonstrated a significantly better progression-free and overall survival for perioperative treatment with FLOT, as compared to ECF. Both, dose modification and supportive care recommendations for treatment with FLOT have been inspired by those used in the FLOT-4 study, which were generously provided by the author. Cisplatin is being kept as an option as it is still standard of care in Korea, and efficacy benefit of other regimen yet have to be demonstrated in these patients. 2. A safety run has been introduced in the protocol, given the change of background chemotherapies. 3. A definition of ‘high dose corticosteroids’ was inserted. 4. Clarification was added, that Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency (DPD) testing should be done according to local guidelines. 5. Dose reduction upon grade 2 or 3 nausea or vomiting has been adapted. 6. Recommendations regarding the procedures in case of tubular damage and low Mg/Ca were added. 7. Measures to be taken after assessment of ototoxicity and sensory neural damage were clarified.

    1. Upon update of the Trastuzumab's IB the following changes have been implemented in the protocol and PISIC Eligibility criteria: - Protocol eligibility: exclusion of patients with interstitial lung disease - Clinical evaluation: adding additional monitoring for cardiac function after the chemotherapies in adjuvant and during the follow-up period with 6 monthly assessment for 2 years after last dose of trastuzumab. 2. Swiss Competent Authorities requires to specify side effects related to Leucoverin 3. Clarification of dose banding 4. Annex 3/GDPR adaptation of the PISIC.

    1. Upon update of the Trastuzumab's Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) and Pertuzumab's SmPC the side effects in the patient information sheet have been updated 2. Wording on the timing of surgery was aligned with the wording in the protocol summary 3. A change in biobank was implemented.
    02 Feb 2021
    1. Upon update of the Herceptin’s SmPC and and Pertuzumab's SmPC the side effects in the patient information sheet have been updated 2. COVID-19 Addendum to patient information sheets 3. Protocol: assessments during the follow up period were updated.

    1. Patient information sheets and addenda to patient information sheets Risk and side effects related to trastuzumab and Risk and side effects related to pertuzumab have been updated according to the new version of the IB. 2. Protocol • To confirm progression by pathological assessment (regarding the primary endpoint) at surgery. In case of local progression by imaging during the neo-adjuvant treatment, if the patient is judged operable, every effort were to be made to confirm the progression at surgery. If progression was not confirmed, patients could stay under protocol treatment and start adjuvant treatment as per protocol. • To specify prerequisites for central pathology review. Pathology report was to be sent to EORTC. Personal data of the patient must have been anonymized and replaced by the EORTC sequential identification number allocated to this patient at the time of randomization. • Elderly Minimal Dataset Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment only once before randomization was needed.

    1. Patient information sheets and addenda to patient information sheets • To align PISIC cisplatin and PISIC flot-folfox-capox. Safety information from the Trial Petrarca were added. • Risk and side effects related to pertuzumab have been updated according to the new version of the IB. 2. Protocol • Additional clarification wished from the supporting company. In case of local progression diagnosed by imaging during the neo-adjuvant treatment, if the patient was judged operable, every effort should have been made to confirm the microscopic/macroscopic progression at surgery • Implementation of the updated IB. Serious adverse events (incl. life-threatening events) compatible with infusion-related reactions with pertuzumab have been infrequently reported (less than 1% of patients).

    1. The end of the study was clarified. Indeed, due to the early termination of the study, this phase II study will not transition to phase III and no IDMC will occur at the end of phase II. The study will not be transitioned to CTR. 2. A new translational research project and exploratory endpoints were added following the surgical quality assurance. In addition, further clarification was made on the end of treatment and minor updates were implemented such as the name and address of the company performing the central assessment of HER-2 expression.
