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 ).

    Recruitment details
    Overall, 225 subjects were planned and 42 subjects were enrolled in this study

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    The study was designed to address the post-authorization measures as agreed with the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP). Recruitment of subjs into this study was challenging, and following agreement with the European Medicines Agency (EMA) enrollment into this study was halted after the enrollment of 42 of the 225 planned subjs.

    Fold change in expression profile of genes and/or proteins for Arm A (LAP+TRAS±AI (HER2-Enriched)) from screening to approx. 3.5 years [1] [2]
    End point description
    Evaluate changes in biomarkers associated with immunomodulation between pre-treatment biopsy and disease progression biopsy within each arm. Biomarker analysis was performed using an mRNA gene expression panel derived from Nanostring platform in a total of 20 subjects who received the study treatment as per the study design and with baseline tumor biopsies available. For the selected biomarkers associated with immunomodulation, the median fold changes of gene expression level and 95% confidence interval are presented. The fold change was calculated as the ratio of the expression level of a biomarker at disease progression over the baseline.

    Fold change in expression profile of genes and /or proteins for Arm C (Non-HER2- Enriched) from screening to approx. 3.5 years [5] [6]
    End point description
    Evaluate changes in biomarkers associated with immunomodulation between pre-treatment biopsy and disease progression biopsy within each arm. Biomarker analysis was performed using an mRNA gene expression panel derived from Nanostring platform in a total of 20 subjects who received the study treatment as per the study design and with baseline tumor biopsies available. For the selected biomarkers associated with immunomodulation, the median fold changes of gene expression level and 95% confidence interval are presented. The fold change was calculated as the ratio of the expression level of a biomarker at disease progression over the baseline.

    End point description
    PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization (for Arm A and B) / treatment start date (for Arm C) to the date of the first documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever was earlier. If a subject had not progressed or died at the analysis cutoff date, PFS was censored at the time of the last adequate tumor assessment. PFS was summarized using Kaplan-Meier estimates.

    Overall response rate was defined as the percentage of subjects achieving either a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and was calculated from the Investigator’s assessment of response per RECIST 1.1 criteria. . The confirmed CR or PR was derived using the following rules: confirmed CR - at least two determinations of CR at least 4 weeks apart before disease progression; confirmed PR - at least two determinations of PR or better at least 4 weeks apart before progression.

    CBR is defined as percentage of subjects with a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or maintaining stable disease (SD) for at least 24 weeks while on study according to the investigator assessment of response per RECIST 1.1 criteria. CR and PR are confirmed responses derived using the following rules: Confirmed CR - at least 2 determinations of CR at least 4 weeks apart before disease progression.

    Date
    Amendment
    26 Mar 2014
    Amendment 1 was issued following feedback from various countries to not include a third biopsy. At the time of this amendment, no subjects were enrolled.
    23 Mar 2017
    Amendment 2 was issued when 42 subjects were enrolled and study recruitment was halted, the key changes included changes to the primary and secondary objectives as described below. The primary objective of the study was updated to remove the evaluation of changes in the expression of biomarkers associated with HER family, apoptosis, and ABC transporters. The amended primary objective evaluated the changes in the expression of biomarkers associated with immunomodulation. The secondary objectives were updated to remove OS and PFS on first next line and subsequent lines of anticancer therapies. Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) objectives were also removed. An exploratory objective was included to explore the changes in molecular subtype determined by PAM50 assay and selected biomarkers.
    15 May 2017
    Amendment 3 was issued subsequent to the acquisition of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) compound GW572016 by Novartis, when 42 subjects had received treatment (with 34 having completed or discontinued study treatment). The protocol was amended to remove references to GlaxoSmithKline and its staff and these were either deleted or replaced with that of Novartis and its authorized agents to align with the change of sponsorship. Administrative changes were made to align with Novartis processes and procedures.
