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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The main objective is to investigate whether DaTSCAN with subsequent SPECT can detect elevated DAT levels in at least a lesion identified with CT in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma, as assesed by pathologist?

    DaTSCAN signal will be seen as positive, displaying intensity ≥3ggr higher than the background and correlating anatomically with at least one lesion found with CT.

    DaTSCAN is used routinely to detect the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the striatum of patients with clinically uncertain Parkinsonian Syndromes. The active substance in DaTSCAN, Ioflupane specifically binds to DAT. By analyzing the focal uptake of Ioflupane (123I) with SPECT / CT the progression of the disease may be clarified. In light of our findings that clear cell renal cancer express significantly elevated levels of DAT, we postulate that DaTSCAN can be used for detection of clear cell ranal cell carcinoma.
    • Kan DaTSCAN med efterföljande SPECT detektera förhöjda DAT nivåer i minst en lesion identifierad med CT hos patienter med PAD-verifierad klarcellig njurcancer?

    DaTSCAN signal kommer att ses som positiv där den visar ≥3ggr högre intensitet än bakgrund och korrelerar anatomiskt med minst en lesion funnen med CT.

    DaTSCAN används rutinmässigt för att detektera förlust av dopaminerga nervceller i striatum hos patienter med kliniskt oklara Parkinsonsyndrom. Det aktiva ämnet i DaTSCAN, Ioflupane injiceras venöst och binder specifikt till DAT. Genom att analysera fokalt upptag av Ioflupane (123I) med SPECT/CT kan progressionen av sjukdomen klargöras. I ljuset av vårt fynd att klarcellig njurcancer uttrycker kraftigt förhöjda nivåer av DAT, postulerar vi att DaTSCAN kan användas för detektion av njurtumörer av klarcellig subtyp.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The exploratory objective is to investigate whether:

    • DaTSCAN with subsequent SPECT, by detecting elevated levels of DAT in clear cell renal cancer, can be used to distinguish clear cell renal cancer from other subtypes of renal cancer such as papillary renal cell cancer, chromofob kidney cancer and benign tumors such as oncocytoma?

    • Surgically removed DaTSCAN positive lymph nodes exhibit infiltration of clear cell renal cell carcinoma cells, regardless of the CT status?

    • DAT-mRNA expression in primary tumor correlate with DaTSCAN signal where the surgically removed tumor material with high DaTSCAN intensity also exhibit high mRNA levels of DAT?
    Explorativa frågeställningar:
    • Kan DaTSCAN efterföljd av SPECT, genom att detektera förhöjda nivåer av DAT i klarcellig njurcancer, användas för att särskilja klarcellig njurcancer från andra subtyper av njurcancer så som papillär njurcancer, chromofob njurcancer samt benigna tumörer som t.ex. oncocytom?

    • Uppvisar bortopererade DaTSCAN positiva lymfkörtlar infiltration av klarcelliga njurcancerceller, oberoende av CT-status?

    • Korrelerar mRNA-uttrycket i primärtumören med DaTSCAN-signalen där bortopererat tumörmaterial med hög DaTSCAN intensitet också uppvisar höga mRNA nivåer av DAT?

    All patients will be consequtively evaluated after completed examination. The inklusion of the 10 patients is expected to last around 10 months, and the results from the last enrolled patient is expected to be obtained one year after the initiation of the trial.
    Varje patient kommer att utvärderas kontinuerligt efter fullföljd undersökning. Inklusionen av de tio patienterna kommer att ske löpande under ca 10 månader. Resultaten från den sista inkluderade patienten beräknas fås ett år efter studiestart.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
