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   44235   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate in a feasibility study whether low uptake on FES-PET at baseline is related to non response to letrozole plus palbociclib treatment.
    Protection of trial subjects
    All patients will receive an effective treatment combination. In addition to the standard control visits to the clinic, three extra visits will be performed as part of the study: for screening, for the FES-PET scan and for the early FDG-PET. The FESPET scan will induce an extra radiation burden of 6.1 mSv and the early FDG-PET 5 mSv. In the future, this study may potentially contribute to improved selection of patients for this combination treatment. This is of relevance in view of optimal treatment for individual patients, avoiding unnecessary toxicity and financial burden.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    		 31 patients were included in the study, 29 patients completed the study. 2 patients discontinued the study prematurely: - 1 patient had dural metastases therefore no response PET/CT scan was performed - 1 patient had elevated liver enzymes, therefore a response PET/CT was performed after 1 cycle (instead of after 2 cycles), progressive disease

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    19 Jun 2017
    1. Moving the FDG PET scan from 8 weeks to 2 weeks after the start of treatment. 2. Expand the number of patients from n=15 to n=30 for the implementation of point 1. Expanding the number of patients also enables further refinement of the FES-PET analysis: namely by adding a per-patient analysis with regard to response, in addition to the per-lesion analysis (the primary endpoint).
