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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The study was conducted at 87 sites in Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Participants with a response or stable disease during Induction were randomized 2:1 into investigative treatment (nab-paclitaxel plus best supportive care [BSC] or BSC only) stratified by disease stage, response during induction and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status.

    Arm description
    During induction, participants received nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin as standard of care: nab-paclitaxel 100 mg/m^2 by intravenous (IV) infusion over 30 minutes on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 21-day cycle and carboplatin AUC = 6 mg*min/mL by IV infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. If the participant had radiological or clinical progressive disease (PD), they were discontinued from the study and not followed. If the participant had a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) without PD at the end of 4 cycles, he/she were eligible to be randomised to the maintenance phase.

    Notes
    [1] - Period 1 is not the baseline period. It is expected that period 1 will be the baseline period.
    Justification: The study was not designed for the induction period to be the baseline period. The maintenance period is considered as the baseline period.

    Notes
    [2] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The maintenance period is considered the baseline period of the trial as the primary objective was to evaluate PFS with nab-paclitaxel as maintenance treatment after response or stable disease with nab-paclitaxel in the induction period.

    Disease Stage at Enrollment
    Disease stage = how big the tumor is and how far it has spread. Disease stages range from 0 (not spread) to IV (spread throughout the body). Stage 0: the cancer has not spread beyond the inner lining of the lung. Stage I: the cancer is small and hasn't spread to the lymph nodes (LN). Stage II: the cancer has spread to some LN near the original tumor. Stage III: the cancer has spread to nearby tissue or spread to far away LN. Stage IV: the cancer has spread to other organs such as lung, brain, or liver. BLC are displayed for participants randomized in the maintenance phase.

        Squamous cell carcinoma
        Squamous cell carcinoma not confirmed
    Disease Stage at Enrollment
    Disease stage = how big the tumor is and how far it has spread. Disease stages range from 0 (not spread) to IV (spread throughout the body). Stage 0: the cancer has not spread beyond the inner lining of the lung. Stage I: the cancer is small and hasn't spread to the lymph nodes (LN). Stage II: the cancer has spread to some LN near the original tumor. Stage III: the cancer has spread to nearby tissue or spread to far away LN. Stage IV: the cancer has spread to other organs such as lung, brain, or liver. BLC are displayed for participants randomized in the maintenance phase.

    Time to Confirmed Response During Induction and Over the Entire Study
    End point description
    Time to confirmed complete or partial response (CR/PR) is defined as the time from day 1 of treatment in Induction to the first occurrence of confirmed CR/PR. Two timeframes are offered: - Time to confirmed response within the Induction timeframe. - Time to Confirmed Response Over the Entire Study, i.e. the time from Day 1 of treatment in Induction to the first occurrence of confirmed CR/PR any time during the study. Only participants with a confirmed CR or PR are included in this summary. Includes the ITT population of participants who had a response. Induction includes the ITT population of participants treated during Induction who had a response. Induction+Maintenance includes the ITT population of participants randomized to Maintenance who had a response.

    Induction is from Day 1 to a maximum treatment time of 19 weeks; entire study from Day 1 Induction through Maintenance up to PD; up to 01 August 2019; maximum treatment duration was 234.1 weeks for entire study.

    End point description
    Duration of overall response was measured from the time criteria were first met for CR/PR until the first date the recurrent or progressive disease (PD) was radiologically documented. Participants who did not have PD after the response were censored on the date of last tumor assessment. If a participant died before PD, the participant was censored on the date of death. The ITT population of participants randomized to the maintenance period and had a confirmed partial or complete response.

    Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) in the Induction Part
    End point description
    TEAE in the Induction part is defined as any adverse event (AE) with an onset on or after Day 1 of treatment for the Induction part, and on or before the day of randomization for subjects who entered into the Maintenance part, or, for subjects who did not enter into the Maintenance part, before the treatment discontinuation date plus 28 days or any serious AE which occurred thereafter but was determined to be related to any study drug by the investigator. The severity of AEs was graded based on National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), Version 4.0 and the scale: Grade 1 = Mild, Grade 2 = Moderate Grade, 3 = Severe Grade, 4 = Life threatening, Grade 5 = Death. Relation to study drug was determined by the investigator. Safety population of participants treated during induction period.

    Reporting group description
    During induction, participants received nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin as standard of care: nab-paclitaxel 100 mg/m^2 IV infusion over 30 minutes on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 21-day cycle and carboplatin AUC = 6 mg*min/mL IV on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. If the participant had radiological or clinical progressive disease (PD), they were discontinued from the study and not followed. If the participant had a complete response, partial response, or stable disease without PD at the end of 4 cycles, he/she were eligible to be randomised to the maintenance phase.

    Reporting group title
    Nab-Paclitaxel + Best Supportive Care (Maintenance)
    Reporting group description
    Maintenance Phase: Following randomization, participants in this treatment arm were administered nab-paclitaxel 100 mg/m^2 by IV infusion over 30 minutes on Days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle, plus best supportive care until disease progression.

    Reporting group title
    Best Supportive Care (Maintenance)
    Reporting group description
