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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes
    E.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Sub-study A: Repetitive Full Dosimetry Imaging (D1 – D4):
    Objective: The total absorbed doses (AD) to kidneys and tumour from four cycles of 177Lu-edotreotide (D1 – D4) will be estimated, by linear extrapolation of the AD measured during D1 with 7.5 GBq to the full dose of 30 GBq. Dosimetry will be measured, using serial planar and single time point SPECT imaging. To verify the accuracy of total AD estimations, based on a linear extrapolation of AD measured during D1, full dosimetric imaging will be repeated during subsequent cycles (D2 – D4) in a subgroup of approximately 20 patients, ready and able to undergo repetitive dosimetric imaging.

    Sub-study B: 3D Dosimetry SPECT/CT Imaging:
    Objective: Abdominal SPECT images (1-2 bed positions, covering liver, kidneys, tumour, as appropriate) will be acquired in a subgroup of approximately 20 patient of 177Lu-edotreotide group in addition to the compulsatory planar images at the following time points of 0.5, 6, 24, and 72 – 96 h after injection of 177Lu-edotreotide. SPECT imaging will be performed after planar imaging. The absorbed doses determined by 3D dosimetry, will be analysed in comparison to absorbed doses values obtained by planar (2D) and hybrid (2D/3D) dosimetry.

Everolimus patients may receive 177Lu-edotreotide therapy on a compassionate use basis. Dosing and assessments should match those of the 177Lu-edotreotide arm of the study.
    Survival information will be collected from all patients.
