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   43855   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To compare the overall survival in patients treated with conventional-dose chemotherapy using the TIP regimen with high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) plus ASCT using the TI-CE regimen as initial salvage treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory GCT.
    Confrontare la sopravvivenza globale nei pazienti trattati con chemioterapia a dosaggio convenzionale che utilizzano il regime a base di paclitaxel, ifosfamide, cisplatino (TIP) con quella dei pazienti sottoposti a trattamento chemioterapico ad alto dosaggio (HDCT) più trapianto autologo di cellule staminali (ASCT) che utilizzano il regime carboplatino ed etoposide (TI-CE) come primo trattamento di salvataggio di pazienti con tumore a cellule germinali (GCT) recidivante o refrattario.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    - To compare PFS of patients treated with initial salvage HDCT with TI-CE vs. initial salvage CDCT with TIP.
    - To compare FRR of patients treated with initial salvage HDCT with TI-CE vs. initial salvage CDCT with TIP
    - To compare toxicity, including treatment-related mortality, associated with high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT using TI-CE compared with conventional-dose chemotherapy using TIP as initial salvage treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory GCT
    - To prospectively evaluate the IPFSG scoring system as a predictor of outcome to initial salvage therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory GCT. In this trial, randomization will be stratified by a modification of their IPFSG category and we will prospectively evaluate whether or not actual outcomes vary by risk group in the appropriate manner (low risk patients have higher OS than high-risk group).
    - To evaluate the association between tumor marker decline rates of AFP and HCG with OS and PFS.
    - Confrontare la PFS dei pazienti trattati con il trattamento di salvataggio HDCT con TI-CE rispetto al trattamento di salvataggio CDCT con TIP
    - Confrontare il FRR dei pazienti trattati con il trattamento di salvataggio HDCT con TI-CE rispetto al trattamento di salvataggio CDCT con TIP
    - Confrontare la tossicità, compresa la mortalità legata al trattamento, correlata alla chemioterapia ad alto dosaggio e all’ASCT con TI-CE rispetto alla chemioterapia a dosaggio convenzionale con TIP come primo trattamento di salvataggio per i pazienti con GCT recidivante o refrattario.
    - Valutare in modo prospettico il sistema di punteggio IPFSG come indicatore dell’esito della terapia di prima linea nei pazienti con GCT recidivante o refrattario. In questo studio, i pazienti saranno stratificati in base a una modifica della loro categoria IPFSG e sarà valutato in modo prospettico se gli esiti effettivi variano nel modo appropriato in base al gruppo di rischio (i pazienti a basso rischio presentano un

    Gli obiettivi secondari sono:
    ¿ Indagare sull’associazione fra “rs1649942” e la sopravvivenza globale (OS) e fra rs1820453 e OS e PFS
    ¿ Considerare altri SNP o condurre studi di associazione a livello di genoma (genome wide association studies, GWAS) per convalidare o identificare nuovi candidati oppure, man mano che le piattaforme di sequenziamento di prossima generazione diventano più convenienti, considerare il sequenziamento dell’esoma o dell’intero genoma.
    ¿ Esplorare l’associazione fra i polimorfismi della linea germinale e altri biomarcatori clinici, demografici o molecolari

    Qualita' della vita
    Versione: -
    Data: 11/05/2015
    Titolo: Valutazione della qualità della vita
    Obiettivi: Sarà valutata la qualità della vita mediante il questionario dell’Organizzazione europea per la ricerca e la cura del cancro, modulo 30 (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Lung Cancer, module 30, EORTC-QLQ-C30) e il modulo testicolare EORTC QLQ-TC26 (nei casi in cui siano disponibili nella lingua nazionale) al basale (=21 giorni prima della registrazione), a fine trattamento, mese 12, mese 18 e mese 24. Possono essere somministrate valutazioni a fine trattamento, mese 12, mese 18 e mese 24 +/- due settimane dalla data programmata.

    Altre tipologie di sottostudi
    specificare il titolo, la data e la versione di ogni sottostudio con i relativi obiettivi: Studio correlato sulla biologia tumorale.
    Saranno raccolti tessuto tumorale fissato in formalina e incluso in paraffina (Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded, FFPE) archiviato e un campione di DNA normale corrispondente (sangue intero).
    Sarà valutata l’associazione fra i polimorfismi specifici della linea germinale e l’esito del paziente.
    L’obiettivo principale è determinare se le alterazioni genetiche dei percorsi RAS, PI3K, p53 e di riparazione del DNA sono prognostiche di sopravvivenza globale.
    Gli obiettivi secondari sono:
    ¿ Determinare se le alterazioni genetiche dei percorsi RAS, PI3K, p53 e di riparazione del DNA sono prognostiche di PFS e di risposta al trattamento
    ¿ Caratterizzare l’intera gamma di aberrazioni genetiche
    ¿ Valutare la frequenza delle alterazioni dei percorsi RAS, PI3K e p53, mettere in correlazione tali aberrazioni con l’esito e identificare altre alterazioni genetiche potenzialmente importanti.
    ¿ Stabilire una banca di campioni biologici per l’analisi futura in questo gruppo raro di pazienti
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    - Confirmation of GCT histology (both seminoma and nonseminoma) on pathologic review at the center of enrollment. Tumor may have originated in any primary site.
    - Must have evidence of progressive or recurrent GCT (measurable or non-measurable) following one line of cisplatin-based chemotherapy, defined as meeting at least one of the following criteria:
    * Tumor biopsy of new or growing or unresectable lesions demonstrating viable non-teratomatous GCT (enrollment on this study for adjuvant treatment after macroscopically complete resection of viable GCT is not allowed). In the event of an incomplete gross resection where viable GCT is found, patients will be considered eligible for the study.
    * Consecutive elevated serum tumor markers (HCG or AFP) that are increasing. Increase of an elevated LDH alone does not constitute progressive disease.
    * Development of new or enlarging lesions in the setting of persistently elevated HCG or AFP, even if the HCG and AFP are not continuing to increase.
    - Must have received 3-6 cycles of cisplatin-based chemotherapy as part of first-line (initial) chemotherapy. Prior POMBACE, CBOP-BEP, or GAMEC are allowed.
    - No more than one prior line of chemotherapy for GCT (other than the 1 cycle of salvage chemotherapy).
    - Must have adequate recovery from prior surgery (e.g., healed scar, resumption of diet, etc.).

    13. Reproductive risk: patient must not father a baby while in this study. The treatment could affect sperm or semen. Therefore, patient and his partner must use an appropriate and effective contraceptive method during the study period and for approximately 6 months after taking the last dose of study drug. A highly effective method of birth control is defined as those which result in low failure rate (i.e. less than 1% per year) when used consistently.
    14. Before patient registration/randomization, written informed consent must be given according to ICH/GCP, and national/local regulations.
    1. Conferma dell’istologia del GCT (sia seminoma che non seminoma) alla valutazione patologica presso il centro di arruolamento. Il tumore può aver avuto origine in qualsiasi sede primaria.
    2. Sono necessarie evidenze di GCT progressivo o ricorrente (misurabile o non misurabile) in seguito a una linea di chemioterapia basata su cisplatino e che soddisfino almeno uno dei seguenti criteri:
    a) Biopsia tumorale di lesioni nuove, in crescita o non resezionabili che dimostrino un GCT non teratomatoso vitale (non è consentito l’arruolamento in questo studio per il trattamento adiuvante dopo una resezione macroscopicamente completa del GCT vitale). Nei casi di grossa resezione incompleta in cui sia stato trovato un GCT vitale, i pazienti saranno considerati eleggibili allo studio.
    b) Elevati marcatori tumorali del siero (HCG o AFP) in aumento. L’aumento dell’LDH elevato da solo non costituisce malattia progressiva.
    c) Sviluppo di lesioni nuove o ingrandite nell’ambito di HCG o AFP persistentemente elevato, anche se l’HCG e l’AFP non continuano ad aumentare.
    3. Trattamenti precedenti
    - È necessario aver ricevuto 3-6 cicli di chemioterapia a base di cisplatino nell’ambito della chemioterapia di prima linea (iniziale). Sono consentiti pregressi POMBACE, CBOP-BEP o GAMEC
    - Non più di una linea precedente di chemioterapia per il GCT (oltre a 1 ciclo di chemioterapia di salvataggio).
    - È necessario aver superato una convalescenza adeguata dopo eventuale chirurgia precedente (ad esempio cicatrice guarita, ripresa dell’alimentazione, ecc.).

Pertanto, il paziente e il suo partner devono utilizzare un metodo contraccettivo appropriato ed efficace durante il periodo di studio e per circa 6 mesi dopo l'assunzione dell'ultima dose di farmaco in studio. Un metodo altamente efficace di controllo delle nascite è definito come quelli che si traducono in un basso tasso di insuccesso (cioè inferiore all'1% all'anno) se usato in modo coerente.
    14. Prima della registrazione / randomizzazione del paziente, deve essere fornito il consenso informato scritto secondo ICH / GCP e le normative nazionali / locali.
