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   44173   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7329   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.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Safety Run-in Part :
    -Identification of a safe and tolerable dose for the randomized part of the study
     -Assessment of treatment-related dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)
     -Frequency and severity of treatment-related AEs
    Randomized Part :
    -Progression-free rate at Day 84 (±4 days) post randomization: Proportion of subjects
    free from clinical progression (clinical relapse and death from any cause) and from molecular progression (defined as lack of stabilization or lack of decrease in molecular aberrations concerning FLT3-ITD mutated, CBF leukemias (eg, t(8;21) and/or inv(16)), MLL-gene rearrangements or NPM1-mutations using central assessment of BM samples by the central laboratories identified for the study, obtained at time points identically prespecified in both randomization arms) at Day 84 (±4 days) post randomization.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Safety Run-in:
    The rate of the following treatment-related DLTs as per National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAEs) version 4.0, occurring during Cycle 1 only will be considered in determining the tolerability of the 100 mg/m2 dose of azacitidine.
    Once 6 subjects have completed their first cycle of treatment (if not having stopped earlier due to a DLT), safety will be evaluated by an external independent Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) and investigators on the trial.
    Randomized Part:
    PFR at Day 84 (±4 days) post randomization, will be assessed at Day 80 to 88 (approximately end of Cycle 3 of active treatment) post
    randomization for both the control and the experimental arm.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Safety Run-Part :
    -Molecular response at Day 84 (±4 days) post Cycle 1 Day 1 (or end of Cycle 3, if not the same date)
    - Azacitidine plasma PK parameters
    - Leukemia-free survival (LFS)
    - Minimal residual disease pre-HSCT

    It is specified in the protocol that patients should be treated as per standard of care after they discontinue from the study. Some patients who reach the required MRD levels will go on to transplant (which is also the standard of care). If they do not reach the required MRD levels, they will have another line of chemotherapy (as per the institution’s standard of care) and then transplant (also in line with standard of care).
