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   44335   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 study data was transferred to zr pharma& following the divestment of panobinostat to pharma&. Prior to study completion under the sponsorship of Secura Bio, the study was initiated and conducted in part under the sponsorship of Novartis. The primary objective of the study was to estimate the overall response rate (ORR) of each of 3 treatment regimens of oral panobinostat in combination with subcutaneous bortezomib and oral dexamethasone during up to 8 cycles of therapy, according to the International Myeloma Working Group 2014 (IMWG) criteria, as assessed by an Independent Review Committee (IRC).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was performed in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki, the International Council on Harmonisation Guidelines for Good Clinical Practice, and regulatory requirements as applicable.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The number of participants reported in the baseline period comprise the full analysis set (FAS): all participants to whom study treatment was assigned by randomization.
    [2] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: The number of participants reported in this milestone comprise the Safety Set: all participants who received any study treatment.
    [3] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.

    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with a confirmed partial response (PR) or better (immunophenotypic complete response [iCR] or stringent complete response [sCR] or complete response [CR] or very good partial response [VGPR]) as their best overall response after completion of up to 8 cycles of assigned study regimen. Each cycle was 21 days long. Best overall response was the best post-baseline confirmed overall response observed in a given participant and was determined based on overall responses observed at all post-baseline response assessments, recorded from randomization until progressive disease (PD), death, start of new therapy, withdrawal of consent, or end of study, whatever came first. ORR was assessed blindly per IRC according to IMWG criteria.

    VGPR Rate
    End point description
    VGPR, based on IMWG criteria per blinded IRC assessment, is defined as: serum and/or urine M protein detectable by immunofixation but not on protein electrophoresis, or ≥90% reduction from baseline in serum) and urine M protein <100 mg/24 hours); in the case of the presence of any soft tissue plasmacytoma(s) at baseline, a reduction in the sum of the products of the cross-diameters by ≥50% from baseline is required; in case the only measurable disease in a participant at baseline is the serum FLC level (that is, no measurable disease in serum and urine protein electrophoresis), a decrease of >90% in the difference between involved and uninvolved FLC levels from baseline is required. Results reported as percentage of participants achieving VGPR.

    Exposure Response: Cmax for Panobinostat
    End point description
    The exposure-response relationship was assessed utilizing Cmax (Cycle 1 Day 1) for panobinostat versus the outcomes of ORR, grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia, and grade 3/4 diarrhoea. Two statistical models were used: logistic regression models, in which these 3 outcomes were treated in a binary fashion according to their occurrence; Cox regression models, with the relevant outcomes being the time to occurrence of grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia and the time to occurrence of grade 3/4 diarrhoea. Results are reported as model-based probability. An increase in the model-based probability indicates an increase in the occurrence of the outcomes (ORR, grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia, 3/4 diarrhoea) with increasing values of Cmax (that is, with increasing dose of panobinostat). Here, ‘Number of subjects analysed’ refers to the number of evaluable participants analysed.

    End point description
    Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30, which is frequently employed in clinical oncology trials and is recognized as reliable and valid. The EORTC QLQ-C30 measures functional dimensions (physical, role, emotional, cognitive, and social), 3 symptom items (fatigue, nausea/vomiting, and pain), 6 single items (dyspnoea, sleep disturbance, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhoea and financial impact), and a GHS and quality-of-life scale. For each domain and item, a linear transformation is applied to standardize the score between 0 and 100. Results are presented specifically for the GHS score. A higher GHS score indicates a higher HRQoL. Each cycle was 21 days long. Here, ‘Number of subjects analysed’ refers to the number of evaluable participants analysed.

    End point description
    HRQoL was assessed by the FACT/GOG-Ntx, a 38-item questionnaire designed to assess general quality of life and severity and impact of neurotoxicity from systemic chemotherapy. It is frequently employed in clinical oncology trials and is recognized as a reliable and valid measure to assess symptoms associated with neurotoxicity. It focuses on 4 general quality of life domains for physical well-being, functional well-being, social/family well-being, and emotional well-being, and includes the neurotoxicity subscale domain to characterize treatment-related neurotoxicity. Results are presented specifically for the 11-item neurotoxicity subscale, which uses a 5-point rating scale (0=not at all; 1=a little bit; 2=somewhat; 3=quite a bit; 4=very much). Each item is scored from 0-4, with the severity of neurotoxicity measured as the sum of the 11 items, ranging from 0 to 44. Lower scores indicate lower neurotoxicity and higher HRQoL. Each cycle was 21 days long.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    17 Nov 2017
    • Participants with up to 4 prior lines of therapy were included with no limitation on how many participants could be treated with 3 or 4 prior lines of therapy. • Changed the platelet limit for inclusion to = 75 x 10^9/litre (L). Similar expectations applied for absolute neutrophil count (ANC); the ANC inclusion criterion was changed to = 1.0 x 10^9/L. • The bone marrow collection did not have to be repeated, unless participants received alternative anti-myeloma therapy between initial screening and re-screening. • Removal of the mandatory computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (CT/MRI) scan at screening if the clinical assessment of soft tissue plasmacytoma (STP) did not suggest the presence of a STP. This was in line with the post baseline assessments of STP when a CT/MRI was only mandatory in case STP was suspected by clinical assessment. • The anti-diarrhoeal medication entries and fluid intake entries were removed; participant’s caregiver or a member of the participant’s family were allowed to make the entries for the participant in case the participant was not able to make the entries her/himself. In addition, the electronic diary to document PAN/Dex dose administration was removed and allowed for this feature to be replaced by a paper diary as per local requirements.
