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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To define the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of selumetinib in combination with dexamethasone in adult and paediatric patients with relapsed/refractory, RAS pathway mutant ALL, and to assess the preliminary anti-leukemic activity of the combination in those patients.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Trial Safety Commitee (TSC) was established to provide independent oversight of the trial and provide advice through its independent chair. The TSC will include a patient representative and a sponsor’s representative. The Chief Investigator will report to the committee on behalf of the TMG. The TSC will assume responsibility for the oversight of the trial on behalf of the Coordinating Sponsor. The TSC will meet or hold teleconferences at least once a year, or more often if required. The TSC will take on the responsibilities similar to that of a data monitoring committee on late phase trials. Established by the Sponsor, the TSC will assess at intervals the progress of a clinical trial, the safety data, and the critical efficacy endpoints, including dose decisions, and to recommend to the Sponsor whether to continue, modify, or stop a trial.

    Primary: Dose Limiting Toxicities

    Close Top of page
    End point title
    Dose Limiting Toxicities [1]
    End point description
    The occurrence/non-occurrence of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in the trial defined assessment period. A DLT is defined as any toxicity which is dose limiting, is not attributable to the disease or disease-related processes under investigation, and is considered at least possibly related to either of the investigational medicinal products (IMPs), as defined in the protocol.
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    DLTs will be assessed from the first dose on Cycle 1 Day 1 up until Cycle 1 Day 28 during Phase I only.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: Primary Objective to define the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of selumetinib/dexamethasone combination in adult and paediatric patients with relapsed/refractory RAS pathway mutant ALL. Modified 2-stage Bayesian Continual Reassessment Method (CRM) was used to determine the maximum tolerated dose independently for each patient group based on the occurrence/non-occurrence of DLT. Dose decision was then made by the Trial Safety Committee. The CRM Dose Decision endpoint is the statistical analysis

    End point title
    CRM Dose Decision [2]
    End point description
    The trial target rate of DLT is 0.17 (17%). For Group A: Dose level 0 has the closest posterior probability estimate (0.154) to this target rate of 0.17. Therefore, the modified Continual Reassessment Method (CRM) recommended dose level 0 for future adult patients (Group A). For Group P: Dose level -1 has the closest posterior probability estimate (0.207) to this target rate of 0.17. Therefore, the modified Continual Reassessment Method (CRM) recommended dose level -1 for future paediatric patients (Group P).
