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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   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 main objective of the trial was to compare the efficacy of 3 subcutaneous (s.c.) doses of elsiglutide vs. placebo and vs. each other in the prevention of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) in colorectal cancer patients treated with 5 fluorouracil (5-FU)-based chemotherapy (FOLinic acid, Fluorouracil, OXaliplatin [FOLFOX] or FOLinic acid, Fluorouracil, IRInotecan [FOLFIRI regimen]) with no addition of a monoclonal antibody.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in full compliance with the principles of the "Declaration of Helsinki" (as amended in the 59th World Medical Association Assembly, Seoul), and the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) guidelines .

    Proportion of Patients of the Target Population Experiencing a Maximum Grade ≥ 2 Diarrhea in Cycle 1 (Population: FAS Target Set) [1]
    End point description
    The endpoint of primary interest for efficacy was the proportion of patients within the Target population experiencing a maximum Grade ≥ 2 diarrhea in Cycle 1 (as assessed by the Investigator). For patient 8031362 who withdrew consent after 11 days in Cycle 1, Investigator assessments for the individual diarrhea events were missing.The data were imputed as Grade 0 for the primary endpoint, in line with the patient’s eDiary data. Grade of diarrhea according to NCI-CTCAE v 4.03 scale. Maximum grade: Maximum of the grades assigned by the Investigator to the individual diarrhea events during the 14-day period. p-value 2: Chi square test, with alpha = 0.10 (2-sided) p-value 3 : Corrected for multiplicity according to Hommel’s procedure Chi square test, with alpha = 0.10 (2 sided); this is the analysis used to test for treatment superiority

    Overall null hypothesis: All elsiglutide dose groups had equal proportion of subjects with max Grade≥2 diarrhea and this was equal to the one in the placebo group. This includes 6 individual hypotheses (i.e., 3 to compare each dose group vs. placebo and 3 to compare dose groups vs. each other). Raw p-values from Chi square tests were corrected for multiplicity according to the Hommel’s procedure. Each of 6 hypotheses was then evaluated based on corrected p-value at alpha 0.10 (two-sided).

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    02 Dec 2014
    The protocol for this study was amended once. This amendment was implemented before the first patient was included in the study. Reasons for Amendment 1, dated 02 Dec 2014 were: • It was clarified that exclusion criteria 17 to 23 were to be checked on Day 1 of Cycle 1 as well as Day 1 of Cycle 2. • It was clarified that the Investigator is not kept blinded with regards to the patient’s judgment about the occurrence of diarrhea. • The reporting of diarrhea events in the context of AE reporting was clarified. • It was defined that elsiglutide AEs included in the MedDRA high level term “injection site reactions” will be considered as AEs of special interest. • It was clarified that only IWRS, no Interactive Voice Response System was used in the study. • It was clarified that preventive measures against CID other than medications are permitted. • The nomenclature and use of documents was clarified for the Drug Preparation Form and the IWRS randomization confirmation e-mail. • It was clarified that urinalysis will not be restricted to dipstick analysis and that results for urine sample analysis did not have to be available for administration of study treatment on Day 1 to commence. • The description of the statistical analysis for QoL data and for vital signs data was corrected. • The Declaration of Helsinki was removed from the list of appendices and instead included in the list of references. • Administrative information and administrative changes: - The bioanalytical laboratory for citrulline testing and the company responsible for clinical trial supplies, packaging, and labelling were mentioned. - The contact details of sponsor representatives were adapted to show the actual address instead of a post-box address. • Minor text changes were implemented to clarify information, improve readability and remove incorrect or ambiguous wording.
