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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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
    This trial explores whether intervention with atorvastatin delays prostate cancer progression i.e. development of castration resistance compared to placebo during androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for metastatic prostate cancer.
    Tämän tutkimuksen päätavoitteena on tutkia vaikuttaako päivittäinen annos atorvastatiinia eturauhassyövän uusiutumiseen kastraatio/hormonihoidossa olevilla potilailla.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Secondary objectives include exploring whether atorvastatin lowers prostate cancer-specific or overall mortality compared to placebo, and to demonstrate whether changes in serum lipid parameters predict disease recurrence and whether atrovastatin prevents occurrence of adverse tumor genomic traits predicting castration resistance among prostate cancer patients during ADT.
    Tutkimuksen muina tavoitteina on selvittää vaikuttaako atorvastatiinin käyttö eturauhassyöpäkuolleisuuteen tai yleiseen kuolleisuuteen, voidaanko kastraatiohoidon aikana ilmaantuvien veren rasva-aineprofiilin muutosten avulla ennustaa sairauden uusiutumaa sekä estääkö atorvatatiini haitallisten genomisten muutosten ilmaantumista eturauhasyöpäpotilailla kastraatio/hormonihoidon aikana.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Histopathologically confirmed metastatic adenocarcinoma of the prostate (radiologically confirmed bone or soft tissue metastasis or enlarged lymph nodes at minimum 15 mm in diameter beyond the pelvic lymph nodes) for which androgen deprivation or antiandrogen therapy (GnRH agonist/antagonist, bicalutamide/flutamide, surgical castration or enzalutamide/abiraterone monotherapy) is initiated no longer than 3 months before recruitment
    o previous prostatectomy and radiation therapy allowed
    2. The participant is willing to participate and signs informed consent
    1. Histopatologisesti varmennettu levinnyt eturauhassyöpä (joko kuvantaen todetut metastaasit luustossa tai pehmytkudoksisa tai läpimitaltaan vähintään 15 mm kokoisia suurentuneita imusolmukkeita muualla kuin lantion alueella), johon on valittu primaariseksi hoitomuodoksi kastraatio/hormonihoito (GnRH agonisti/antagonisti, bikalutamidi/flutamidi, kirurginen kastraatio tai entsalutamidi/abirateroni monoterapia) korkeintaan kolme kuukautta ennen tutkimukseen mukan tulemista
    2. Potilas on halukas osallistumaan tutkimukseen ja allekirjoittaa suostumuksen osallistumiselleen

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Development of castration resistance during androgen deprivation therapy, defined as either PSA progression (three consecutive rises of PSA measured at least 1 week apart with two > 50% increases over the nadir and PSA > 2 ng/ml) or radiological progression (appearance of two or more lesions in bone scan or soft tissue enlargement as per RECIST criteria) while serum testosterone is at castrate level (< 50 ng/ml or 1.7 nmol/l).

    Kastraatioresistenssin kehittyminen hormonihoidon aikana. Kastraatioresistentiksi määritellään joko PSA progressio (kolme peräkkäin nousevaa PSA arvoa vähintään viikon väliajoin mitattuna, kaksi >50% nousua alimpaan arvoon verrattuna sekä kokonaisPSA > 2ng/ml) tai radiologinen tautiprogressio (kuvantaen todettu kaksi uutta luustopesäkettä tai enemmän tai RECIST kriteerien mukainen pehmytkudospesäke) seerumin testosteroniarvon ollessa katraattitasolla (< 50ng/ml tai 1.7 mmol/l).

    End of the study e.g. progression of castration resistance or 10 years after initiation
    Kastraatioresistenssin kehittyminen tai 10 vuotta tutkimuksen aloituksesta
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Change in serum cholesterol during the intervention and its role in predicting time to disease recurrence in the placebo arm, prostate cancer mortality and overall survival, - occurrence of adverse tumor traits predicting development of castration resistance in circulating cell free DNA, - changes in fasting blood glucose during ADT, occurrence of cardiovascular events during ADT and - quality of life during ADT
    Muutokset seerumin kolesteroli arvoissa ,eturauhassyöpä kuolleisuus ja kokonaiseloonjäänti, muutokset paastoglukoosissa, sydän- ja verisuonisairauksien ja tapahtumien yleisyys, sekä elämänlaatu hormoni/kastraatiohoidon aikana.
