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
    Co-Primary Objectives • To compare the pathological complete response (pCR, ypT0 ypN0) rates of neoadjuvant treatment with or without denosumab in addition to backbone treatment consisting of nab-Paclitaxel 125mg/m² weekly (plus carboplatin in triple-negative disease) followed by epirubicin/cyclophosphamide or of nab-Paclitaxel 125mg/m² day 1,8 q22 (plus carboplatin in triple-negative disease) followed by epirubicin/cyclophosphamide plus anti-HER2 treatment (i. e. trastuzumab/pertuzumab in case of positive HER2-status) in patients with early breast cancer. • To compare the pCR (ypT0 ypN0) rates of nab-Paclitaxel 125mg/m² weekly (plus carboplatin in triple-negative disease) followed by epirubicin/cyclophosphamide or nab-Paclitaxel 125mg/m² day 1,8 q22 (plus carboplatin in triple-negative disease) followed by epirubicin/cyclophosphamide plus anti-HER2 treatment (i. e. trastuzumab/pertuzumab in case of positive HER2-status) in patients with early breast cancer.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial protocol including amendments, the patient information and the informed consent were reviewed and approved from a properly constituted IRB/IEC for each site prior to the study start. The trial was in compliance with the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) - Harmonized Tripartite Guideline for Good Clinical Practice (GCP) (E6), and the Commission Directives in the European Community as well as with the applicable German national laws and regulations, and with Declaration of Helsinki and its revisions in all aspects of preparation, monitoring, reporting, auditing, and archiving. IDMC was to ensure the ethical conduct of the trial and to protect patients' safety interests in this study.
    Background therapy
    For all patients Epirubicin 90 mg/m² i.v. on day 1 every 2 or 3 weeks for 4 cycles in combination with Cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m² i.v. on day 1 every 2 or 3 weeks for 4 cycles.. For patients with TNBC only Carboplatin AUC 2.0 i.v. on day 1, 8, 15 every 3 weeks for 4 cycles For patients with HER2-positive disease Pertuzumab at 840mg (loading dose) and 420mg (maintenance dose) i.v. on the day before the first nab-Paclitaxel cycle and denosumab administration (loading dose) and on day 1 q day 22 (maintenance dose) for a minimum of 4 cycles (according to label)

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Approximately 25 months (Q-I 2017 –Q-I 2019). 780 patients were randomized (390 in denosumab arm and 390 in no denosumab arm, thereafter 390 to nab-paclitaxel weekly and 390 to nab-paclitaxel d1, 8 q3w), and started therapy. 756/780 (96.9%) patients underwent surgery

    Pre-assignment

The primary endpoint was summarized as pathological complete response rate for each treatment group for both randomizations. Two-sided 90% confidence intervals were calculated according to Pearson and Clopper.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    20 Mar 2017
    Amendment 1 comprised the inclusion of a trastuzumab biosimilar replacing Herceptin® (and thus opening the study for patients with HER2-positive tumor), minor adjustments to the protocol and deletion of the PET-CT substudy.
    18 Jun 2018
    Amendment 2 implemented the change of the co-ordinating investigator and adjustments in the informed consent form (ICF) required due to several updates to the reference document for the investigational medicinal product Denosumab.
    11 Apr 2019
    Amendment 3 contained a clarification of end of study and timeframe from end of therapy until surgery. Moreover, several reformulations and additions in ICF, especially for the marketing authorization of the trastuzumab biosimilar were included.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
