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   44394   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7406   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
    Primary objective: To assess the efficacy of Avelumab (anti-PD-L1) associated to different cytotoxic agents or in monotherapy in patients with non-metastatic MIBC as measured by the pathologic complete response rate (ypT0/Tis ypN0) following neoadjuvant treatment. Secondary objectives: *To determine the pathologic response rate (<ypT2N0) following neoadjuvant treatment in subjects with non-metastatic MIBC. *To assess the safety and tolerability of the regimens used *To assess the local or distant recurrence or secondary primary malignancy at 12 and 36 months after surgery (or at 12 and 36 months after last treatment dose for subject for whom no surgery was performed) *To assess the overall survival with 36 months of follow-up after completion of surgery (or after last treatment dose for subject for whom no surgery was performed).
    Protection of trial subjects
    This clinical study was implemented after evaluation by an independent French Committee for the protection of individuals (on 12/06/2018) and an independent Belgian Ethics Committee (on 28/05/2023). This biomedical research has been authorised by the French competent health authorities, the Agence Nationale de Sécurité des Médicaments et des Produits de Santé (ANSM) on 15/03/2019 and by the Belgian competent health authorities, the Federal Agency for medicines and health products (FAMHP) on 28/05/2023. Adhering to the principles of ICH-GCP, participants were thoroughly informed before inclusion. This encompassed details such as the voluntary nature of their participation, confidentiality, and protection of personal data, potential risk and benefits of participation, insurance coverage and the possibility of withdrawal at any time. The participants' informed consent was obtained freely, documented in writing, and personally signed and dated by each patient or by an authorized representative under applicable law. To protect privacy, subject names were not collected; instead, each participant received a unique sequential trial identification number upon registration. This identification number was used for referencing on all case report forms. Additionally, certain eligibility criteria were established for subjects to participate in the trial, with the aim of minimizing the risk of severe adverse events. The trial protocol included provisions for adjusting treatments in response to specific adverse events. Subjects had the freedom to withdraw from the clinical trial at any time, for any reason, and the study adhered to the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and the Good Clinical Practice guidelines set forth by the European Union.

The primary endpoint was pCR, defined as the absence of invasive residual disease (ypT0/Tis) and no microscopic lymph node involvement (ypN0) in the surgical specimen of evaluable patients. Patients who received at least one dose of each medication in their respective treatment arm and underwent cystectomy were considered evaluable. Patients experiencing early progression that precluded surgery were considered evaluable and assessed as therapeutic failures.
