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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    End point description
    PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of objective disease progression or death based on investigator assessments, according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1). Objective disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.

    APF is defined as the percentage of participants who are alive and progression free at 6 months and 12 months after randomization. Estimates of progression free survival were based on investigator assessments according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1). Objective disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    14 Jan 2015
    Updates to the following: - Management of non-immune-related toxicity using dose modifications. - Stratification factors changed to include PD-L1 status. - ‘Deep sustained response’ (DSR) endpoint removed. - Change to pre-specify stratified log-rank test as primary method of analysis for OS and PFS in all-comers population, while retaining the weighted HR approach as a supportive analysis. - PD-L1 status added as a pre-specified subgroup analysis.
    03 Apr 2015
    Updates to the following: - Change to doses of durvalumab and tremelimumab in the combination arm. - Clarification of procedures regarding discontinuation or retreatment in cases of confirmed PD. - Modifications to eligibility criteria. - Changes to endpoints and assessments.
    01 Jun 2015
    Updates to the following: - Eligibility criteria modified. - Clarification that no further enrolment into the durvalumab monotherapy arm applies to patients with PD-L1-negative tumors, should external data suggest lack of benefit of durvalumab monotherapy in the PD-L1 negative population.
    18 Feb 2016
    Updates to the following: - Co-primary endpoint of PFS removed, leaving only a primary endpoint of OS (accordingly, the multiple testing procedure was simplified). - Primary objective clarified as assessment of durvalumab + tremelimumab vs SoC in PD-L1-positive and -negative patients (ie, regardless of PD-L1 status). (throughout the document). - Previous primary comparison included monotherapy vs SoC in PD-L1-positive patients. - Clarification of key secondary objectives. - PFS, ORR, DoR, DCR, APF6, APF12 to be based on Investigator assessment rather than BICR. - PRO measures reduced and prioritised for formal analysis. - PRO for CTCAE reduced from collection of 30 PRO-CTCAE symptoms to 11. - Eligibility criteria modified. - Removal of text referring to possibility of halting enrolment of PD-L1- negative patients into the durvalumab monotherapy arm. - Definition of disease progression now to include clinical disease progression as well as confirmed objective disease progression. - Removal of the requirement to confirm response (amended to objective response). - Addition of one interim analysis for OS at 80% maturity, when 314 death events have occurred across the combination and SoC arms. - Update sample size estimate calculation and statistical assumptions. - Added analysis of patients with subsequent anticancer therapy. - HPV testing and analysis of OS by HPV status in patients with oropharyngeal cancer only. - Addition of subgroup analysis by race. - Management of study drug-related toxicities modified. - The timing and procedures for scheduled assessments and/or study design were modified and clarified.
    07 Sep 2016
    Updates to the following: - Change from single primary objective of durvalumab + tremelimumab vs SoC in terms of OS to co-primary objectives of durvalumab + tremelimumab vs SoC in terms of OS and durvalumab monotherapy vs SoC in terms of OS. - Treatment in all arms to continue until progression. - Retreatment sections updated to only allow retreatment for patients on the combination arm, provided that progression occurs during the monotherapy portion of dosing. - The hypothesis testing is expected to be performed after ~11 months of follow-up instead of 10 months, and after ~375 death events have occurred instead of 392. The number of events that triggers the interim analysis was reduced from 314 to 300. - The requirement for a min of 300 patients with PD-L1-positive disease was removed and enrolment was to be based on the natural prevalence of PD-L1-positive and -negative patients. - Updated to clarify that the specified PD-L1 expression cut-off level will be used for the purpose of stratification, however the cut-off level to be used for the subgroup analyses by PD-L1 status and for determining the PD-L1- negative subgroup in the MTP may be different and will be determined from emerging data outside of this trial. - Updated to include text to allow the study to stop for superiority based on interim OS analysis. - DoR will be analysed by descriptive statistical and Kaplan Meier plots. - Primary tumor status, prior radiation therapy, use of chewing tobacco, oral snuff, and sublingual nicotine, smoking history, ECOG PS, prior lines of systemic therapy for treatment of HNSCC, and extent of disease added as subgroups for analysis. - Weighted estimate of the overall HR removed. - The sensitivity analyses and information on the ascertainment bias, subgroup analysis and its display on forest plot, and adjustment of significance level of testing were removed.
    23 Jan 2018
    Updates to the following: - Updates to various sections to align with the most current safety information per the update to the Investigator’s Brochure. - New section added for survival status for withdrawn consent and lost to follow-up patients. - Clarification to collection of variables for SAEs. - New section added to describe treatment with durvalumab after the final data cut-off. - Updates to allow sites more flexibility in timing of survival calls after data cut-off.
    10 Sep 2018
    Updates to the following (12-Dec-2018): - New section added to the CSP (Safety data to be collected following the final data cut-off of the study) to describe how safety data would be recorded for patients continuing to receive study drug after final data cut-off and database closure. - Treatment regimens text amended to clarify that patients currently receiving treatment with durvalumab may be transitioned to a roll-over or safety extension study after the analysis is finalized.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Multiple testing was performed for OS analysis in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population and OS analysis in the PD-L1 negative population for durvalumab + tremelimumab versus SoC only.
