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   44411   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7420   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
    The main purpose of the study is to assess safety and provide continued treatment with alectinib to participants with ALK- or RET-positive cancer who were previously enrolled in any Roche-sponsored alectinib study and who are deriving continued clinical benefit from alectinib in the parent trial at the time of parent trial closure.
    Protection of trial subjects
    All study participants were required to read and sign an Informed Consent Form (ICF).

    Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) [1]
    End point description
    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a study drug, regardless of causal relationship. A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is a medically important event. AESI included drug induced liver injury that include an elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in combination with either an elevated bilirubin or clinical jaundice and suspected transmission of infectious agent via study drug. Safety Population included all enrolled participants who received at least one dose of study drug.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    29 Nov 2019
    Changes to the protocol are summarized: 1) Language had been modified to accommodate changes in local product information without requiring a protocol amendment by directing questions regarding dose reduction or discontinuation for hematologic and non-hematologic toxicities to the U.S. Package Insert or Crizotinib summary of product characteristics (SmPC) or local prescribing information. 2) The Medical Monitor name and contact information was updated.
    18 Jan 2022
    Changes to the protocol are summarized: 1) The table providing guidelines for the management of risks, adverse events, and laboratory abnormalities had been updated overall. 2) Hematologic findings from alectinib toxicity studies in animals had been provided to the section describing the risks associated with alectinib. 3) Benefit-risk assessment and guidance on concomitant administration of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccines with alectinib had been added. 4) The Medical Monitor contact information had been updated. 5) The name of a Roche policy on data sharing had been corrected.
