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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    Progression Free Survival (PFS)
    End point description
    Progression-free survival time was measured from the date of randomization to the date of investigator-determined objective progression as defined by RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Progressive disease (PD) is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, with reference being the smallest sum on study and an absolute increase of at least 5 mm, or unequivocal progression of non-target lesions, or 1 or more new lesions. Participants who have neither progressed nor died were censored at the day of their last radiographic tumor assessment (if available) or date of randomization if no post baseline radiographic assessment is available. Analysis population description (APD) included all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug. Censored participants: 21 in Abemaciclib 150 mg + Tamoxifen 20mg; 25 in Abemaciclib 150 mg; 22 in Abemaciclib 200mg.

    Objective Response Rate (ORR): Percentage of Participants with a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)
    End point description
    Objective response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with CR or PR according to RECIST v1.1. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and no appearance of new lesions. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the LD (longest diameter) of target lesions (taking as reference the baseline sum LD), no progression of non-target lesions, and no appearance of new lesions. APD included all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had PR/CR data.

    PK: Mean Single Dose Concentration of Tamoxifen and Endoxifen [5]
    End point description
    Mean single dose concentrations of Tamoxifen and its metabolite (Endoxifen) were reported. APD included all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug along with Tamoxifen and had evaluable PK samples. 9999=Data Not Available (N/A): Geometric Mean was not able to be calculated due to small sample size (2 Participants).

    Notes
    [5] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: Descriptive statistics was added in only specific baseline period reporting arms with evaluable PK data.

    End point description
    The EORTC QLQ-C30 self-reported general cancer instrument consists of 30 items covered by 1 of 3 dimensions: 1) Global health status/quality of life (2 items) with scores ranging from 1 (Very Poor) to 7 (Excellent). 2) Functional scales (15 total items addressing either physical, role, emotional, cognitive, or social functioning), each item scores ranging from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much) 3) Symptom scales (13 total items addressing either fatigue, nausea/vomiting, pain, dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, or financial impact), each item scores ranging from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much). Raw scores are linearly converted to a 0–100 scale with higher scores reflecting higher levels of function/QOL or higher levels of symptom burden. APD included all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug with baseline and post-baseline EORTC QLQ-C30 score.

    Change from Baseline in Pain and Symptom Burden Assessment on the Modified Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (mBPI-sf)
    End point description
    mBPI-sf is an 11-item instrument used as a multiple-item measure of cancer pain intensity. In addition to pain intensity (4 items), the mBPI-sf is designed for participants to record the presence of pain in general, pain relief, and pain interference with function (general activity, mood, ability to walk, ability to perform normal work, relations with others, sleep, enjoyment of life). Responses for the mBPI-sf items are captured through the use of 11-point numeric rating scales anchored at 0 (no pain or does not interfere) and 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine or completely interferes). The mBPI-sf recall period is 24 hours and typical completion time for this instrument is less than 5 minutes. APD included all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had baselines and post baseline mBPI-sf measurement.
