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   43858   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 ).

    Version creation reason
    • New data added to full data set
    The report was reviewed for compliance to FDA technical documentation requirements for submission of clinical reports forming part of a NDA for marketing approval in the USA. The safety results were also presented as one group of the ISS and when compared to the prior ones it was found that it was necessary to adjust some computation algorithms for some variables in order to achieve consistency with the ISS results. In addition, some errors were detected in the analysis.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To determine a difference in progression-free-survival (PFS) between lurbinectedin (PM01183) and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) or topotecan in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer patients according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v.1.1.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. All the local requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial.
    Background therapy
    All patients received the following standard antiemetic prophylaxis before each treatment infusion: • Corticosteroids (dexamethasone i.v. at least 8 mg or equivalent, or at institutional standard antiemetic doses). • Serotonin (5-HT3) antagonists (ondansetron at least 8 mg i.v. or equivalent). If necessary, in addition to the above, the duration of treatment with 5-HT3 antagonists and/or dexamethasone could be extended. Additional antiemetic agents could be administered as appropriate. Aprepitant and equivalent agents (e.g., fosaprepitant) were forbidden in patients treated with lurbinectedin. For the purpose of safety evaluations, an optimal prophylaxis was defined as all the aforementioned allowed medications at their respectively maximum dose.

    Control (PLD or topotecan)
    Arm description
    Patients randomized to the Control arm were assigned to receive PLD if they had previously been treated with topotecan, or to receive topotecan if they had previously been treated with PLD. However, if the number of patients randomized to either PLD or topotecan reached 60% (i.e., 126 patients) of the total number of patients expected in the Control Arm, then the treatment of choice in the Control Arm would be restricted to the less frequent control drug until the end of accrual

    3.2 mg/m2 i.v. as a 1-hour infusion on Day 1 q3wk (three weeks = one treatment cycle) through peripheral or central lines. A minimum total volume of 100 mL, diluted in 5% glucose or 0.9% sodium chloride solution for infusion, had to be used for administration through a central venous catheter; if a peripheral venous catheter was used, the minimum volume was 250 mL

    Control (PLD or topotecan)
    Reporting group description
    Patients randomized to the Control arm were assigned to receive PLD if they had previously been treated with topotecan, or to receive topotecan if they had previously been treated with PLD. However, if the number of patients randomized to either PLD or topotecan reached 60% (i.e., 126 patients) of the total number of patients expected in the Control Arm, then the treatment of choice in the Control Arm would be restricted to the less frequent control drug until the end of accrual

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    06 Nov 2015
