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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The main objective of the study was to demonstrate the efficacy of ponatinib administered at 2 starting doses (30 and 15 mg once daily [QD]) compared to nilotinib administered at 400 mg twice daily (BID) in participants with chronic phase-chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) who are resistant to imatinib, as measured by major molecular response (MMR) by 12 months.
    Protection of trial subjects
    All the participants were required to read and sign the informed consent form (ICF).

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    30 Mar 2016
    Amendment 2: Imposed more stringent and detailed guidelines for contraception requirements of participants on the study. Excluded participants with hypersensitivity to the ponatinib or nilotinib active substances or to any of their inactive ingredients. Added Hepatitis B virus serology as a screening requirement. Increased the blood count and lipase monitoring frequency (additional screens on Day 15 during Cycle 2 and Cycle 3) in adherence to the ponatinib Investigator's Brochure. Changed statistical testing scheme to use Bonferroni procedure rather than Hochberg procedure to adjust for comparisons of Cohorts A and B to Cohort C. Updated the Schedule of Events to allow another option (brain natriuretic peptide testing) for sites unable to perform N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide testing. Added requirements for an eye exam at screening and throughout treatment period as clinically indicated. Provided guidance for ocular toxicity. Corrected dose modification for nilotinib for Grade 3 peripheral vascular arterial events, QT interval corrected (Fridericia) (QTcF) prolongation and amylase/lipase elevations. Updated sponsor contact information.
