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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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
    To examine the safety and tolerability of VXM01 in combination with avelumab
    Protection of trial subjects
    -A Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) was convened to periodically assess the trial conduct and data in terms of risk-benefit balance and provide recommendations to Vaximm regarding the trial’s continuation or modification. Furthermore, the DSMB was consulted in case a treatment-limiting toxicity (TLT) was classified as possibly related to either of the IMPs. -The first 3 non-resectable patients treated with the VXM01 106 CFU/mL dose in combination with avelumab were included in a staggered fashion (1+2). For safety reasons, there was a time interval of at least 5 weeks between dosing of the first patient and the following 2 patients (TLT observation period). If no TLTs were observed, the VXM01 vaccine dose was to be increased to 107 CFU/mL, after review of the safety data by the DSMB. -Similarly, also the first 3 patients treated with the VXM01 107 CFU/mL dose in combination with avelumab were included in a staggered fashion (1+2). If the safety and tolerability were considered acceptable for the VXM01 107 CFU/mL dose in combination with avelumab, all patients treated with VXM01 106 CFU/mL dose in combination with avelumab could be treated with the higher dose (intra-dose escalation allowed) after general approval by the DSMB, at the investigator’s discretion. -Subjects were given pre-treatment with an anti-histamine and paracetamol prior to receiving the first 4 doses of Avelumab to prevent infusion-related reactions. Premedication was administered for subsequent avelumab doses based upon clinical judgment and presence/severity of prior infusion reaction.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    		 The trial was conducted in 2 centers in Germany and 1 center in France. There was one site activated in The Netherlands but no patients were enrolled. The trial was terminated earlier in NL and FR at the same time. The recruitment phase was approximately 23 months (Nov18 - Nov19 and Aug20 - Jul22). First patient was included in 20Nov2018.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 For each patient, the trial consisted of a screening period of approximately 3 weeks. Only patients meeting all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were included into the treatment phase. The criteria were assessed at screening and a re-check was performed at the inclusion visit (Day 0).

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to have started the pre-assignment period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: 32 patients entered the pre-assignment period, however, 4 of those patients did not meet the eligibility criteria and thus were not enrolled in the trial.

    [2] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: The milestone "Tumor resection" is only applicable to the Resectable arm, however, it is not possible to remove this milestone from the other arms in the EudraCT system.

    Justification: One patient in the Resectable arm did not under go tumor resection due to a clinical decision.

    Notes
    [2] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: The Duration of Response can only be determined in patients with a partial or complete response. In the arm "10^7 CFU/mL Resectable" (Arm 3) no patients had a partial or complete response, thus duration of response could not be determined for this arm.
