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   43841   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7281   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
    ¿ To assess the early metabolic effects of neoadjuvant treatment with trastuzumab and pertuzumab (¿ endocrine therapy) on the primary tumor and axillary lymph nodes and their predictive value for pathologic complete response (pCR) in the breast and axilla.
    ¿ To assess 3-year invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant trastuzumab and pertuzumab (¿ endocrine therapy) using a FDG-PET response-adapted strategy.
    ¿ Valutare gli effetti metabolici precoci del trattamento neoadiuvante con trastuzumab e pertuzumab (¿ terapia endocrina) sul tumore primario e sui linfonodi ascellari nonch¿ il loro valore predittivo in termini di risposta completa patologica (pCR) nel seno e nell¿ascella.
    ¿ Valutare il tasso di sopravvivenza senza malattia invasiva a 3 anni (iDFS) in pazienti affette da carcinoma mammario positivo a HER2 trattato con terapia neoadiuvante a base di trastuzumab e pertuzumab (¿ terapia endocrina) utilizzando una strategia adattata alla risposta a FDG-PET.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    ¿ To assess efficacy by other pCR definitions
    ¿ To compare the rate of pCR between the treatment groups by hormone receptor (HR) status and tumor stage.
    ¿ To compare the rate of conversion to breast conserving surgery between the treatment groups.
    ¿ To compare the overall response rate (ORR) by 18F-FDG PET/CT between the treatment groups.
    ¿ To analyze optimal 18F-FDG PET/CT cut-off for pCR.
    ¿ To analyze other 18F-FDG PET quantification parameters beside SUVmax for pCR.
    ¿ To compare the ORR by MRI between the treatment groups.
    ¿ To evaluate changes in health-related quality of life assessments from baseline using the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BR23 questionnaires
    ¿ To assess 3-year iDFS
    ¿ To assess 3-year distant disease-free survival (DDFS)
    ¿ To assess 3-year disease-free survival (DFS)
    ¿ To assess overall survival (OS)
    ¿ To assess progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with subclinic M1 at baseline 18F-FDG PET/CT
    ¿Valutare l¿efficacia secondo altre definizioni di pCR¿Confrontare il tasso di pCR tra i gruppi di trattamento in termini di stato HR e fase del tumore¿Confrontare la percentuale di conversione a intervento conservativo al seno tra i gruppi di trattamento¿Confrontare il tasso di risposta globale(ORR)mediante PET/TAC 18F-FDG tra i gruppi di trattamento¿Analizzare il cut-off PET/TAC18F-FDG ottimale per pCR¿Analizzare altri parametri di quantificazione PET 18F-FDG oltre a SUVmax per pCR¿Confrontare il tasso di risposta globale(ORR)mediante MRI tra i gruppi di trattamento¿Valutare i cambiamenti della qualit¿ della vita relativi alla salute rispetto alla baseline con i questionari EORTC QLQ-C30 e QLQ-BR23¿Valutare l¿iDFS a 3 anni.¿Valutare il tasso di sopravvivenza senza malattia distale(DDFS)a 3anni¿Valutare tasso di sopravvivenza senza malattia(DSF)a 3 anni¿Valutare il tasso di sopravvivenza complessiva(OS)¿Valutare tasso PSF in pazienti con M1subcliniche alla baseline con PET/TAC18F-FDG

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    • The first co-primary endpoint is to evaluate the rate of pCR as defined by the absence of invasive disease in the breast and axilla (ypT0/isN0) at the time of surgery achieved with the combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab (± endocrine therapy) as exclusive neoadjuvant treatment in PET responders patients (cohort B/PET responders) [PET/CT positive predictive value (PPV) for a pCR among patients who are PET responders].
    • The second co-primary endpoint is to evaluate 3-year iDFS rate defined as time from the first date of no disease (i.e., date of surgery) to invasive recurrence, new invasive disease, or death by any cause. Recurrence will be defined in accordance with the standardized efficacy endpoints (STEEP) criteria. The primary analysis will be to estimate 3-year iDFS rate in cohort B.
    • Il primo endpoint co-primario riguarda la valutazione del tasso di pCR definito dall’assenza di malattia invasiva nel seno e nell’ascella (ypT0/isN0) al momento dell’intervento grazie alla combinazione di trastuzumab e pertuzumab (± terapia endocrina) come trattamento neoadiuvante esclusivo in pazienti PET responder (coorte B/PET responder) [valore predittivo positivo PET/TAC (PPV) per un valore pCR tra pazienti che sono PET responder].
    • Il secondo endpoint co-primario riguarda la valutazione del tasso di iDFS a 3 anni inteso come il lasso di tempo intercorso tra la prima data di assenza della malattia (ovvero la data dell’intervento) alla ricorrenza invasiva, ad una nuova malattia invasiva o al decesso per un qualsiasi motivo. La ricorrenza verrà definita conformemente ai criteri degli endpoint di efficacia standardizzati (STEEP). L’analisi primaria sarà quella di stabilire il tasso di iDFS a 3 anni nella coorte B.
