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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    This phase IV study aims to investigate possible immunologic and biologic effects of the concurrent administration of PD-1 blocking antibodies and denosumab as primary endpoint by evaluating peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC, esp. activated T-cells), chemokines, and cytokines (e.g., interferon gamma): 1) Dynamic changes in the numbers of central memory, effector memory, and/or effector T-cells in the circulating blood (based on expression of CD45RA, CD45RO, CCR7, CD62L, and TCF-1). 2) Dynamic changes in the concentration of cytokines and chemokines present in circulating blood.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Patients had to met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Pregnant or breast-feeding women are excluded. Women of childbearing potential and male patients with partners of childbearing potential had to use a highly effective form of contraception. There was no preferrred enrolment of men or women. The treatment should be conducted exactly as described in the protocol. Any protocol deviations were reported. criteria for premature treatment discontinuation of study patients were specified in the protocol. The study was conducted in accordance with the 2013 Declaration of Helsinki (Fortaleza, Brazil, 2013). The recommendations of Good Clinical Practice, valid since 17 January 1997, were met.
    Background therapy
    Prior therapy with CTLA4-inhibitor or PD1-inhibitor or denosumab for distant metastatic disease as well as any other concurrent medical treatments for metastatic disease such as targeted therapies or chemotherapies was not allowed. Treatments in the adjuvant setting were allowed in case treatment was discontinued at least 4 weeks before inclusion in this study. All permitted therapies specified in the SmPCs of the used study drugs could be administered during study treatment to assist in the management of pain, infection and other complications of the underlying malignancy. Relevant prior and concomitant medications were documented in the eCRF.
    Evidence for comparator
    Since this was a single arm trial, no comparators were used.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Upon obtaining signed informed consent, screening evaluation were performed to confirm eligibilty and to obtain baseline data. Between 16 April 2019 (first patient in) and 18 February 2021 (last patient in), 17 patients were registered by 4 German university clinics.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    The investigators selected patients according to the inclusion / exclusion criteria after informing the patient written and orally about the study and after the patient had signed the informed consent. There was no preferred enrolment of men or women. Baseline examinations should be performed within 28 days before study treatment.

    Adverse event reporting additional description
    All AEs including start date, end date, treatment of AE, outcome, relatedness and seriousness had to be recorded in the eCRF. Relatedness of the AE to study drugs was determined by the investigator. Due to the definition of the safety population, only SAEs which occurred after start of study treatment are listed.

    Date
    Amendment
    25 Jun 2019
    In a first amendment of the study protocol, endpoints were widened to dynamic changes of cells, inclusion and exclusion criteria were adapted to more common medical standards for the addressed indication (e.g., the planned therapy with PD-1 blocking antibodies was opened by including the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab), the number of clinic visits was adapted to the treatment schedules, and it was clarified that the study represents a hypotheses-generating approach as there was no prespecified hypothesis.

    Interruptions (globally)
