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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    light activities such as light house work or office work
    - Must agree to provide tumor tissue sample, either from a previous surgery or biopsy within 6 months or fresh, prior to the start of treatment in this study
    E.3 Criteri di inclusione principali
    a) I soggetti devono presentare un carcinoma a cellule squamose o un carcinoma a cellule adenosquamose (differenziazione squamosa predominante) dell’esofago istologicamente confermato (ai sensi dei criteri AJCC 7a edizione, vedere Appendice 4).
    b) I soggetti devono presentare un ESCC non resecabile, avanzato, recidivante o metastatico (ai sensi dei criteri AJCC 7a edizione 5.1, vedere Appendice 4).
    c) I soggetti devono essere non candidabili ad approcci curativi, ad esempio chemioradioterapia e/o chirurgia definitiva
    d) Nessuna precedente terapia antitumorale sistemica somministrata come terapia principale per la malattia metastatica o avanzata.
    I. È consentita una precedente chemioterapia/radioterapia/chemioradioterapia adiuvante, neoadiuvante o definitiva per l’ESCC, se somministrata nell’ambito di un regime a intento curativo e completata prima dell’arruolamento. È richiesto un periodo libero da recidiva di 24 settimane dopo il completamento delle chemioterapie neoadiuvanti o adiuvanti o dopo il completamento di terapie multimodali (chemioterapie e chemioradioterapie) per malattie localmente avanzate.
    e) Stato di validità ECOG di 0 o 1, vedere Appendice 3.
    f) I soggetti devono presentare almeno una lesione misurabile alla TC o alla RM ai sensi dei criteri RECIST 1.1. La valutazione radiografica del tumore deve essere effettuata nei 28 giorni precedenti alla randomizzazione.
    g) Deve essere fornito tessuto tumorale per le analisi dei biomarcatori. 1 blocco di tessuto tumorale fissato in formalina e incluso in paraffina (Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded, FFPE) o 15 vetrini non colorati di tessuto tumorale, corredati dal referto patologico, se disponibile, devono essere inviati per la valutazione dei biomarcatori prima della somministrazione del farmaco in studio. Il campione di tessuto tumorale deve essere fresco o archiviato, se prelevato nei 6 mesi precedenti alla randomizzazione, e non può essere stata somministrata alcuna terapia sistemica (ad es. adiuvante) dopo il prelievo del campione. Il tessuto deve essere stato ottenuto mediante agobiopsia, biopsia escissionale o incisionale. Le biopsie con ago sottile o il drenaggio delle effusioni pleuriche con citospine non sono considerati adeguati per la revisione dei biomarcatori e la randomizzazione. Neanche le biopsie di lesioni ossee che non hanno componenti di tessuti molli o campioni tumorali ossei decalcificati sono accettabili.
    h) Per essere randomizzato, un soggetto deve presentare un livello di espressione di PD-L1 = 1%, < 1% o indeterminato, stabilito dal laboratorio centrale.

    or known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
    - Any positive test result for hepatitis B or C indicating acute or chronic
    infection and/or detectable virus.
    a) I soggetti devono essersi ripresi dagli effetti di un intervento di chirurgia maggiore o da una significativa lesione traumatica almeno 14 giorni prima della randomizzazione.
    b) Pregressa neoplasia maligna che richieda il trattamento attivo nei 3 anni precedenti, eccetto tumori localmente curabili che risultino all’apparenza curati, come tumore cutaneo a cellule basali o squamose, tumore vescicale superficiale o carcinoma in situ della prostata, della cervice o della mammella.
    c) Soggetti affetti da malattia autoimmune attiva, nota o sospetta. È consentito l’arruolamento di soggetti con diabete mellito di tipo 1, ipotiroidismo residuo dovuto a tiroidite autoimmune che richieda solo terapia ormonale sostitutiva, disturbi cutanei (quali vitiligine, psoriasi o alopecia) che non richiedano il trattamento sistemico. Nei casi incerti, si raccomanda di consultare un responsabile del monitoraggio medico di BMS prima della firma del consenso informato.
    d) Soggetti con una condizione che richieda il trattamento sistemico con corticosteroidi (> 10 mg di equivalente del prednisone al giorno) o altri medicinali immunosoppressori nei 14 giorni precedenti all’inizio del trattamento dello studio. L’uso di steroidi per via inalatoria o topica e di steroidi per terapia sostitutiva dell’insufficienza surrenalica in dosi > 10 mg/die di equivalente del prednisone è consentito in assenza di malattia autoimmune attiva.
    e) Precedente trattamento con anticorpi anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, anti-CD137 o anti-CTLA-4 o con qualsiasi altro anticorpo o farmaco specificamente mirato contro la co-stimolazione o i percorsi di controllo delle cellule T.
