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
    The main objective of this trial was to estimate the complete metabolic response (CMR) rate after blinatumomab monotherapy administered in the second salvage treatment of transplant-eligible participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) aggressive B cell non Hodgkin lymphoma who have not achieved CMR after standard platinum based first salvage chemotherapy.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and other regulations/guidelines as applicable.

    Arm description
    Phase 2: Participants entered a single 70-day dose step cycle, and received a total of 56 days of blinatumomab continuous infusion which was administered as 7 days at 9 microgram (μg)/day, 7 days at 28 μg/day, and 42 days at 112 μg/day, followed by a treatment-free period of 14 days. Eligible participants could then enter an optional Cycle 2, 2 to 4 weeks after the end of the previous cycle. The optional Cycle 2 consisted of a 28-day cycle of blinatumomab continuous infusion administered as 7 days at 9 μg/day, 7 days at 28 μg/day, and 14 days at 112 μg/day. Phase 3: The decision made to not proceed with Phase 3 and no participants were enrolled.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: Cycle 2 was an optional cycle that participants did not need to complete to complete the overall study. Phase 3 part of the study was not initiated after Phase 2 data was reviewed. No participants were screened or enrolled for Phase 3.

    Reporting group description
    Phase 2: Participants entered a single 70-day dose step cycle, and received a total of 56 days of blinatumomab continuous infusion which was administered as 7 days at 9 microgram (μg)/day, 7 days at 28 μg/day, and 42 days at 112 μg/day, followed by a treatment-free period of 14 days. Eligible participants could then enter an optional Cycle 2, 2 to 4 weeks after the end of the previous cycle. The optional Cycle 2 consisted of a 28-day cycle of blinatumomab continuous infusion administered as 7 days at 9 μg/day, 7 days at 28 μg/day, and 14 days at 112 μg/day. Phase 3: The decision made to not proceed with Phase 3 and no participants were enrolled.
