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   44234   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7336   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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Patients will be recruited both from the academic center as well as regional hospitals. The patients will be informed by one of the investigators under the supervision of the PI. Patients will be informed with a patient letter and have a week to consider. The written informed consent form should be signed and personally dated by the patient

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    25 pts signed consent, of which 2 screenfailures and in 1 patient baseline FDHT-PET was performed, but was not treated with bicalutamide. In addition, another patient was treated short-term with bicalutamide and underwent 2x FDHT-PET, however metastasis biopsy showed HER2+, so bicalutamide was discontinued. 21 patients will be included for analysis

    Arm description
    At day 0 before start with bicalutamide, a FDHT-PET/CT will be performed, and one after 6 weeks (i.e. 2 weeks after steady-state). The second FDHT-PET will be performed to determine if this scan can be used as a biomarker for early response. Patients will be treated with bicalutamide until progression or unacceptable toxicity is encountered.
