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   44237   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Clinical: pCR rate will be based on histological evaluation of the resected bladder specimen collected during cystectomy (after 1-2 cycles of MPDL3280A treatment).

    • Radiological response, defined as a >30% decrease in tumour diameter from the baseline scan based on local investigator assessments
    • Disease-free survival, defined as time between the date of enrolment to first evidence of disease progression based on local investigator assessments or death, whichever occurs first.
    • Overall survival, defined as the time between the date of enrolment and death due to any cause.
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    • Adverse events will be recorded during treatment and up to 24 weeks post cystectomy (AEs are recorded up to 4 weeks post-cystectomy, and unresolved AEs monitored until resolved or until 24 weeks post-cystectomy).

    • Radiological response will be assessed before and after treatment with MPDL3280A (baseline and pre-cystectomy).
    • Disease free survival will be recorded from enrolment until first evidence of disease recurrence or death; patients are followed up for 2 years after cystectomy.
    • Overall survival is defined as time from enrolment to death due to any cause. Patients are followed for 2 years after cystectomy; data will be collected until this time point.
