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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    PRIMARY: To explore if there was any added efficacy considering time to progression (by mRECIST version 1.1) or death (PFS) by adding DCVAC/OvCa as maintenance treatment after SoC with carboplatin/gemcitabine or carboplatin/paclitaxel in women with EOC who experienced relapse >6 months after complete remission following Pt-based first-line SoC. Efficacy was to be assessed vs. a historical control patient group treated in SOV02 trial with SoC alone in those who did not have progressive disease after 6 cycles of SoC. SECONDARY: •Overall survival versus a historical control patient group treated within the SOV02 trial (SoC alone and parallel DCVAC/OvCa treatment group) •Biological progression-free interval versus a historical control patient group treated within the SOV02 trial (SoC alone and parallel DCVAC/OvCa treatment group) •Best objective response (ORR) •CA 125 response •Time to response (objective response and CA 125 response) •Immunological response •Safety

    Background therapy
    All patients were to receive standard of care chemotherapy. For treatment with carboplatin/gemcitabine regimen, patients were to receive 1000 mg/m2 of gemcitabine as a 30-minute intravenous infusion on days 1 and 8 of 3-week cycles (with an acceptable window of ±3 days). Carboplatin (area under the curve [AUC] 4 mg/mL/min) was to be administered as an intravenous infusion (15 to 60 minutes) on day 1 of 3-week cycles (with an acceptable window of ±3 days). For treatment with carboplatin/paclitaxel regime, 175 mg/m2 of paclitaxel was to be administered intravenously in a 3-hour infusion on day 1 of 3 week cycles (with an acceptable window of ±3 days). Carboplatin (AUC 5 mg/mL/min) was to be administered intravenously as a short-term infusion (15 to 60 minutes) on day 1 of 3 week cycles (with an acceptable window of ±3 days) as a short-term infusion (15 to 60 minutes). A total of 6, 8, or 10 cycles of SoC chemotherapy were to be completed as per investigators’ decision.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Patients exposed to DCVAC/OvCa: From the date of the patient’s signing the ICF until 30 days after the final administration of DCVAC/OvCa (SAEs with a plausible causal relationship to DCVAC/OvCa must be reported until indefinitely).
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Patients not exposed to DCVAC/OvCa: From ICF signature until: •1 day after leukapheresis or DCVAC/OvCa manufacturing failure (before SoC therapy initiation) •30 days after the last SoC therapy cycle •following the patient’s ICF withdrawal Progression of underlying disease or AE related to progression does not need to be reported as SAE.

    Sequential DCVAC/OvCa
    Reporting group description
    DCVAC/OvCa (approximately 1×10e7 autologous DCs) was to be administered at each dosing time to the patients subcutaneously. The first dose was to be administered 15 to 21 days after the last dose of SoC therapy. The first five doses of DCVAC/OvCa were to be given in 3-week intervals (with an acceptable window of ±3 days), followed by dosing at 6 week intervals (with an acceptable window of ±3 days) for a total of 15 doses. NOTE: There were 3 TEAEs with a fatal outcome associated with the progression of underlying disease. Per protocol, progression of the underlying disease or an AE unequivocally (without doubt) related to the progression of the underlying disease, regardless of its outcome or seriousness criteria, does not need to be reported as an SAE. However, there was 1 fatal SUSAR reported (PT: Myelodysplastic syndrome) in a patient in the follow-up period as defined by the protocol. The SUSAR is recorded in the Safety Database.

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    20 Jul 2017
    • Clarification in the statistical sections • ECOG performance status not to be measured during the survival follow-up period
    18 Dec 2017
    • The number of doses increased from up to 10 to up to 15 • Schedule of sample collection for exploratory immunological research changed to reflect the change in the number of DCVAC/OvCa doses administered per patient • Exact time points added for vital signs measured after the DCVAC/OvCa administration • Acceptable visit window added for SoC therapy and efficacy follow up period • Historical chest X ray and/or CT/MRI of the abdomen and pelvis up to 4 weeks are acceptable. • Collaboration with CEEGOG • Wording adjusted to reflect changes and to clarify meaning; minor corrections of grammar
    21 May 2019
    • Date of DCVAC/OvCa administration: tb calculated from the date of the previous DCVAC/OvCa administration • Addition of IDMC • All patients eligible at final eligibility assessment are tb followed for OS and further-line anticancer therapy • All time-to-event analyses are tb measured from eligibility verification • The control group from SOV02 trial is to include only patients who did not have PD after 6 cycles of SoC chemotherapy • Modification of the definition of ITT population, addition of mITT population, clarification of PP population • CA 125 levels are not tb considered in evaluation of non-target lesions • Response assessment is to take place after 6 cycles of SoC chemotherapy • Independent review of CT/MRI scans is to be considered in case of need for health authority interactions • CT/MRI does not take place during efficacy follow-up visits • Hematology, serum chemistry, and urinalysis tests performed at the trial site 1-3 days before the start of a treatment cycle are acceptable • Patients are to discontinue DCVAC/OvCa in case of a systemic allergic reaction to DCVAC/OvCa • The version of the MedDRA current at the time of database lock is to be used • Inclusion criterion 3: the relapse after >6 months of remission (Pt-sensitive cancer) should be radiologically confirmed up to 4 weeks prior to signing the ICF or during screening • Urine does not have to be tested only by dipstick • APTT is to be reported in seconds or ratio • Urea is to be tested and not both urea and blood urea nitrogen • CT/MRI scans are to be done at screening, every 8 weeks (± 3 days) after SoC therapy initiation, or every 8 weeks (± 3 days) from the previous CT/MRI, i.e., ideally till 104 weeks (± 3 days) after SoC therapy initiation • After confirmed disease progression after second-line SoC therapy, vascular endothelial GF inhibitors administered according to the SPC are allowed • Removal of obsolete information and changes in wording to improve readability

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    To allow input of results of comparison with historical control groups from trial SOV02, the number of patients in trial SOV06 has been artificially increased by 2000: +1000 for age group 18-64 years and +1000 for age group 65-84 years.
