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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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 ).

    Number of Subjects With Best Antitumor Response Rate According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v.1.1) Assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC)
    End point description
    Best antitumor response was defined as best response obtained in any evaluation according to RECIST v.1.1. Complete Response (CR): disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to less than (<) 10 millimetre (mm). Partial Response (PR):at least 30 percentage (%) decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference baseline sum diameters. Progressive Disease (PD):at least 20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference smallest sum on study (this includes baseline sum if that is smallest on study). In addition to relative increase of 20%, sum must also demonstrate absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. Stable Disease (SD):neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD taking as reference smallest sum diameters. Analysis was performed on ITT population.

    Number of Subjects With Best Antitumor Response Rate in Subjects with Chemotherapy-free Interval Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 90 Days Assessed by the Independent Review Committee
    End point description
    Best antitumor response rate was defined as best response obtained in any evaluation according to RECIST v.1.1. CR: disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR: at least 30 % decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference baseline sum diameters. PD: at least 20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference smallest sum on study (this includes baseline sum if that is smallest on study). In addition to relative increase of 20%, sum must also demonstrate absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. SD: neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD taking as reference smallest sum diameters. Analysis was performed on the ITT population.

    Number of Subjects With Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events (SAE) According to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4 (NCI-CTCAE v.4)
    End point description
    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the clinical trial treatment. An SAE was defined as any adverse experience occurring at any dose that resulted in death; was life-threatening; required or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; resulted in persistent or significant disability or incapacity; congenital anomaly or birth defect; medically significant; or any suspected transmission of an infectious agent via a medicinal product. Safety population included subjects who received at least part of one infusion of the investigational agents, and analyzed in the group where they were treated.

    Duration of Response (DoR) Without Central Nervous System Involvement Assessed by the Independent Review Committee
    End point description
    DoR was defined as duration from date of first documentation of response per RECIST v.1.1 (CR or PR, whichever comes first) to the date of documented PD or death. CR: disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR:at least 30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference baseline sum diameters. PD:at least 20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference smallest sum on study. In addition to relative increase of 20%, sum must also demonstrate absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. If the subjects received further antitumor therapy or is lost to follow-up before PD, DoR was censored at the date of last tumor assessment. ITT population. Here, "Number of subjects analysed" were those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint.

    Number of Subjects with Best Antitumor Response Rate With Central Nervous System Involvement Assessed by the Independent Review Committee
    End point description
    Best antitumor response rate was defined as best response obtained in any evaluation according to RECIST v.1.1. PD: at least 20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference smallest sum on study (this includes baseline sum if that is smallest on study). In addition to relative increase of 20%, sum must also demonstrate absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. SD: neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD taking as reference smallest sum diameters. ITT Population included all subjects randomized to either treatment arm independently of whether received study drug or not, and analyzed in the group where they were allocated. Here, "Number of subjects analysed" signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    18 Mar 2016
    Following Changes were made: change in study design; subjects in the control arm were received either topotecan or CAV, according to the Investigator’s preference, until the first of these options reaches 55% of the target subjects enrollment (i.e., n=165). Once this has occurred, the subjects remaining to reach 300 randomized subjects in the control arm were received the other option. Information on background, criteria for treatment continuation, dose levels and dose reduction, and study assessment in subjects assigned to CAV in the control arm has been added accordingly. In addition, primary and secondary analyses, statistical methodology and stratification factors were updated; The hemoglobin level required for treatment continuation in both arms were increased from >=8.5 grams per decilitre (g/dl) to >=9.0 g/dl, to be consistent with the approved topotecan Summary of Product Characteristics; Clarifications for consistency were added to the laboratory tests, clinical and radiological tumor assessment and subjects-reported outcomes to be done at the end of treatment; the information on drug-drug interactions has been updated and clarified; as a result of the merger between Zeltia, S.A. and Pharma Mar, S.A., Sociedad Unipersonal, the Sponsor shall now be referred to as Pharma Mar, S.A, without further reference to “Sociedad Unipersonal”; study contact information has been updated; some minor typographic and style edit changes have been added.
    03 Oct 2016
    Following changes were made: inclusion criterion #3 has been modified to allow the inclusion of subjects with a CTFI >= 30 days, thereby excluding those with a CTFI <30 days.
    03 May 2018
    The overall study design has been modified to change the primary endpoint from PFS assessed by an IRC to OS; the overall study design has also been modified to remove the need for restricting subjects assignment in the control arm; To enhance the interpretability of the analyses of secondary endpoints, some of these endpoints have been moved to a list of tertiary endpoints, leaving as secondary those considered more relevant from a clinical point of view (i.e., difference in OS between PM01183/DOX and CAV, in subjects with CAV as best Investigator’s choice; OS/PFS per RECIST v.1.1 in subjects with and without baseline CNS involvement; PFS per RECIST v.1.1 by an IRC; antitumor activity as per RECIST v.1.1 by an IRC; and safety profile). The procedure for alpha spending correction is detailed, describing the statistical methods and the formal interim analyses requested by the IDMC; a new secondary objective has been added: to compare differences in OS and PFS in subjects with and without baseline CNS involvement.
