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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To compare the overall survival (OS) following treatment with BGB-A317 vs. investigator chosen chemotherapy (ICC) when given as second line treatment in patients with advanced unresectable/metastatic Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC)
    Protection of trial subjects
    This trial was designed and monitored in accordance with Sponsor procedures, which comply with the ethical principles of GCP as required by the major regulatory authorities, and in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. The IEC/IRB-approved ICF was signed and dated by the subject or the subject’s legally authorized representative before his or her participation in the study. A copy of each signed ICF was provided to the subject or the subject’s legally authorized representative. All signed and dated ICFs were retained in each patient’s study file or in the site file. For any updated or revised ICFs, written informed consent was obtained using the IEC/IRB-approved updated/revised ICFs for continued participation in the study.

It includes global health status and quality of life questions related to overall health in which participants respond based on a 7-point scale, where 1 is very poor and 7 is excellent. Raw scores are transformed into a 0 to 100 scale via linear transformation. A higher score indicates better health outcomes. The ITT analysis set included all randomized participants; "Overall number of participants analyzed" refers to number of participants evaluable for this outcome measure and "Number analyzed" refers to participants evaluable at the specified time point.

    HRQoL as Assessed by EORTC QLQ-OES18) in the PDL-1 Positive Analysis Set.
    End point description
    Mean change from baseline in EORTC QLQ-OES18 index score. The EORTC QLQ-OES18 is a questionnaire that assesses overall symptoms in esophageal cancer participants. It includes questions related to overall health in which participants respond based on a 7-point scale, where 1 is very poor and 7 is excellent. Raw scores are transformed into a 0 to 100 scale via linear transformation. A higher score indicates better health outcomes. The PD-L1 positive population is defined as a visually-estimated combined positive score (vCPS) ≥10%; “Overall number of participants analyzed” refers to number of participants evaluable for this outcome measure and “Number analyzed” refers to participants evaluable at the specified time point.

    End point description
    Mean change from baseline in EQ-5D-5L visual acuity score (VAS). The EQ-5D-5L measures health outcomes using a VAS to record a participant's self-rated health on a scale from 0 to 100, where 100 is 'the best health you can imagine' and 0 is 'the worst health you can imagine.' A higher score indicates better health outcomes. The ITT analysis set included all randomized participants; “Overall number of participants analyzed” refers to number of participants evaluable for this outcome measure and “Number analyzed” refers to participants evaluable at the specified time point.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    07 Nov 2017
    Evaluation of objective response rate, progression-free survival, and duration of response using immune-related RECIST was removed because the tool had not been validated. The stratification factors were modified (gender was replaced with ECOG PS score and ICC option) per the request from the US FDA. Alternative paclitaxel and docetaxel treatment regimens were added to provide Japan-specific regimens per the request from the PMDA. Clarified that patients who had received ≥ 2 prior systemic treatments for advanced unresectable or metastatic ESCC were excluded. Management guidance for infusion-related reactions, severe hypersensitivity reactions, flu-like symptoms, and renal function abnormalities were added. The guidance for the immune-mediated adverse event management was modified and updated
    06 Dec 2017
    The requirement of treatment beyond radiographic progression was further clarified per the request from the US FDA. Criteria for dose modification of paclitaxel, docetaxel and irinotecan and permanent discontinuation of chemotherapy regimens were clarified, and dose modifications guidelines for specific adverse events and other toxicities were provided, per request from the US FDA
    08 Nov 2018
    CK (creatine kinase) and CK-MB (creatine kinase cardiac muscle isoenzyme) tests and management guidance were added to monitor the risk of myocarditis more closely. Incorporated the US FDA request of implementing measures to further decrease the potential for viral reactivation: Continuous treatment for 6 months after treatment discontinuation was required for patients with detectable HbsAg or HBV DNA; continuous effective antiviral therapy was required for patients who had detectable HCV and were receiving treatment at screening. The criterion to exclude patients who had a history of anterior organ transplant, including stem-cell allograft, was added per the request from the French National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products (ANSM). Immune-mediated adverse event management guidelines were updated: “Tislelizumab must be permanently discontinued for any onset of Grade 4 or recurrent Grade 3 immune-mediated adverse events.” A new appendix of “Determining Line of Therapy in ESCC” was added to further clarify the definition of first-line systemic treatment in inclusion criteria, and first-line or front-line systemic treatment was defined as “platinum-based regimen.”
    20 Mar 2020
    Updated the statistical estimation of the sample size to increase the sample size from 450 to 500 and increase target number of death events from 336 to 400, with the following consideration: (1) overall survival HR was adjusted from 0.73 to 0.75 based on recently published results of anti-PD-1 therapies in second-line treatment of ESCC and (2) addition of a dropout rate of 5%. The predefined interim analysis was removed due to the lack of geographically representative population for the analysis, which resulted from the disparity in global enrollment rates. The overall survival in patients with PD-L1 vCPS ≥ 10% was added as the key secondary endpoint of this study to reflect the clinical relevance and importance of the PD-L1 biomarker in ESCC observed in competitors’ published data. (Note: PD-L1 assessment [by VENTANA PD-L1 SP263 CDx Assay] was not started before the key secondary endpoint was added in this protocol amendment, and PD-L1 status of each patient was unknown.)
    20 Jul 2020
    Provided definition of the predefined cutoff for the PD-L1-Positive Analysis Set. Added details for management of Grade 3 myositis/rhabdomyolysis in Appendix 10 of Study 302 Protocol Amendment Version 4.0
