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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To assess changes in PD-L1 and CD8 expression induced by neoadjuvant nivolumab in GBM. For that purpose we will compare GBM tissue of patients before and after treatment with neoadjuvant nivolumab.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Patients were offered participation in the trial in the neouroncology clinics of University of Navarra.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Patients over 18 years with GBM that are candidates to primary or salvage resection surgery. In patients undergoing primary surgery, diagnosis of GBM should be confirmed by previous biopsy or previous partial resection. in patients with recurrent GBM, diagnosis of progression will be confirmed either by previous biopsy or by the RANO criteria.

    Arm title
    Experimental group
    Arm description
    Patients from two subgroups were recruited to the study; patients who required salvage surgery to treat relapsed disease (n = 27) as well as patients who required surgery for primary tumor resection (n = 3) were recruited. These patients were administered a 3mg/kg dose of nivolumab. 2 weeks after nivolumab administration they underwent surgery. Patients received postsurgical doses of nivolumab every 2 weeks progression or unacceptable toxicity. For the three patients who underwent primary surgical treatment, nivolumab was stopped to receive standard-of-care chemoradiotherapy (CRT). In two of these cases, nivolumab was reintroduced following completion of chemoradiotherapy. These patients have not relapsed and they remain on nivolumab maintenance therapy without toxicity

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: Overall survival (O) and progression-free survival (PFS) were determined by the Kaplan-Meier method. There is no comparison between groups since there is only one arm in the trial design.
