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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The main objective of this trial is to optimize the dosing and interval regimen of empiric Tazocin treatment in pediatric oncology patients with fever and neutropenia.
    Det overordnede formål med vores projekt er at optimere dosis og indgiftsmetode for den empiriske Tazocin-behandling til børneonkologiske patienter ud fra farmakokinetiske og – dynamiske studier af Tazocin hos denne gruppe børn.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    To describe the pharmacokinetics of Tazocin in children with cancer and FN. We want to determine whether Tazocin dosing with bolus injection achieves concentrations associated with maximal activity in relation to MIC-levels.
    Formålet er at analysere, om nuværende behandlingsregime med bolusinjektion af Tazocin 100 mg/kg hver 8. time er forbundet med en hensigtsmæssig farmakokinetisk profil af stoffet i henhold til MiC-niveauerne.
    Desuden ønsker vi at analysere intrapatient variationen af PTs farmakokinetiske parametre og udfærdige en farmakokinetisk model. Samtidig vil vi relatere resultaterne af ovenstående til følgende parametre hos barnet: alder, vægt, overfladeareal, leukocyt- og neutrofiltal, nyrefunktion (glomerulær filtration (GFR) målt ved Schwartz’ formel), tilstedeværende bakteriæmi/sepsis, anden konkomitant antibiotikabehandling og se-albumin.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes
    E.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Title: "Determination of Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of Tazocin in the most pathogenic bacteria in pediatric oncology patients" Version 3, 02-19-2016

    Objective of the sub-study: Determination of MIC-levels of the most pathogenic bacteria in blood cultures from children with cancer and febrile neutropenia who have been admitted to the department of Pediatric Oncology, Aarhus University Hospital.
    Titel: "Minimal Inhibitorisk Concentration (MIC) for isolater af patogene bakteriestammer dyrket fra blodet hos børn med cancer", version 3, 2016.02.19

    Formålet med første delstudie er bestemmelse af MIC-niveauer for de mest patogene bakteriestammer, der er dyrket fra blodet hos børn med cancer og febril neutropeni. På baggrund af MIC-værdierne vil vi undersøge, hvilken koncentration af Tazocin i blodet, man skal stile mod for at opnå maksimal effekt af stoffet hos børn i behandling med empirisk Tazocin.
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    -Children aged 6 months - 18 years with cancer and febrile neutropenia during chemotherapy who starts empiric Tazocin treatment
    - Admission to the department of pediatric oncology A20, Aarhus University hospital
    - independent of cancer type
    - Each child can participate every more than one time if he/she has several episodes of fever during chemotherapy
    - Has CVK or other central venous catheter
    -Børn med cancer, som bliver indlagt på Børneonkologisk afdeling, A20, AUH med kemoinduceret febril neutropeni og opstartes i empirisk antibiotikabehandling med Tazocin.
    - Alderskriterium: ½ – 18 år
    - Inklusion uafhængigt af underliggende cancerform
    - Hvert barn kan indgå flere gange i forbindelse med hver antibiotikabehandlingsperiode og kan indgå selvom barnet får anden type antibiotika samtidigt.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    - Children that are solely breastfeed
    - Children who do not have a central venous catheter or another central catheter (CVK)
    - Children were it is not possible to draw blood from the CVK
    - Småbørn, der ammes fuldt
    - Børn, der ikke har CVK eller anden central adgang
    - Børn, hvor det ikke er praktisk muligt at tage blodprøver fra CVK
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Our primary outcome or endpoint is to investigate if the children in the study group reach Tazocin levels > 4 x MIC for the most pathogenic bacteria in > 50% of the dosing interval or > 1 x MIC i 100 % of the dosing interval. The overall goal is to optimize the Tazocin treatment in this group of children.
    Dvs. at vores outcome i dette studie er at undersøge, hvor stor en andel af børnene, der opnår Tazocin koncentrationer > 4 x MIC for de mikroorganismer, der er beskrevet i delstudie 1 i > 50% af doseringsintervallet eller > 1 x MIC i 100 % af doseringsintervallet
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    The timepoint of evaluation of this end point is jan-feb. 2018. By this time all blood samples should be gathered and analyzed.
    Data forventes indsamlet og analyseret, herunder udarbejdelse af en farmakokinetisk model, januar-februar 2018.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    In the third sub-study we aim to investigate whether continuous Tazocin infusion is associated with prolonged time of PT concentration above MIC. Furthermore we will determine the most optimal dosing of Tazocin administered as continous infusion.
    I det trejde delstudie ønsker vi at undersøge, om kontinuerlig infusion af Tazocin resulterer i en mere optimal antibiotikaprofil i henhold til MIC-værdierne. Vi vil endvidere bestemme hvilken dosis af Tazocin givet som bolus efterfulgt af kontinuerlig infusion, der giver den mest optimale farmakokinetiske profil i relation til MIC værdierne for de patogene mikroorganismer beskrevet i delstudie 1.
