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   44144   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7325   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.

    End point timeframe
    The median time on study for all treated participants was 19.6 (range 0.16+, 24.64) months.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: This has been a single-arm, open-label study and it is not possible to enter a statistical analysis for a single-arm study in EudraCT.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    29 Feb 2016
    • Modify inclusion criteria to allow subjects with IgA, IgD, IgE or IgM multiple myeloma to enroll in the study with SPEP ≥ 0.5 g/dL. • Removal of local analysis of FISH at Screening and clarification of biomarker testing. • Added option for low-dose whole-body CT scan to be performed instead of skeletal survey based upon methods that could be used to clarify presence of bone disease for the diagnosis of multiple myeloma. • Provided updated text regarding risks associated with ibrutinib for second primary malignancies. • Provided updated information regarding hepatic impairment. • Provided updated results on safety and efficacy for the Phase 1 part of PCYC-1119-CA (Study 1119). • Clarification added for dose reductions due to toxicity for dexamethasone for subjects >75 years of age. • Modified timing of collection of bone marrow aspirate samples at time of CR from every 3 months after confirmed CR to every 12 months after confirmed CR as MRD assessment more often than once a year is not needed.
    08 Dec 2016
    • Include changes to clarify requirements for mid-cycle visits in the case of bortezomib discontinuation prior to protocol-scheduled completion • Include changes to clarify cycles and some test requirements for efficacy assessments • Update safety language per ibrutinib Investigator’s Brochure Version 10
    18 Jan 2017
    • Update of risk and dose modification language for ibrutinib • Update the exclusion criteria regarding treatment free interval for recent prior monoclonal antibody use from <6 weeks to <2 weeks (exclusion criteria #3). • Update reporting instructions for special reporting situations, adverse events and pregnancies and clarification regarding safety analysis.
    12 May 2017
    • Provide an update on the current safety status of the study and outcome of recent Sponsor Safety review • Modify inclusion criteria to only enroll subjects with 2 or 3 prior lines of therapy • Update inclusion criteria for absolute neutrophil count • Modify the treatment schedule of dexamethasone to only administer dexamethasone on the day of bortezomib administration • Modify dose reduction guidelines of bortezomib to be in line with current clinical practice • Include clarification that interim analysis will include analysis of the enrollment distribution to reassess the initial hypothesis based on the actual subject population enrolled. • Implement a formal internal safety review committee to review safety data • Update protocol language per the current ibrutinib protocol template.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? Yes
    Date
    Interruption
    Restart date
    12 May 2017
    On this date, enrollment of subjects was put on hold for the implementation of safety measures based on the observation of an increased incidence of serious and fatal infections in treated subjects. Risk minimization mainly included a reduction of the dexamethasone dose (effectively halving the dose in treatment cycles 1-12) and strengthening of infection prophylaxis. Subjects already enrolled were allowed to continue treatment with the reduced dose of dexamethasone. As significantly reduced number of serious and no fatal infections were observed in the following 6 months leading to approval of restarting enrollment by regulatory authorities and ethics committees. However, an evaluation of the efficacy data performed at the same time indicated that the primary endpoint of achieving a mPFS of >12 months was unlikely to be achieved following inclusion of additional subjects. As a result, the study was terminated and enrolment was not restarted.
