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   43870   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7289   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 ).

    Clinical Trial Results:
    Phase II multicentre, randomized, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of avelumab with gemcitabine/carboplatin versus gemcitabine/carboplatin alone in patients with unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC) who have not received prior systemic therapy and who are ineligible to receive cisplatin-based therapy

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To assess the efficacy of avelumab given pre-emptively and alternate/sequential way with gemcitabine/carboplatin compared to gemcitabine/carboplatin alone in terms of objective response rate (ORR) of subjects with unresectable or metastatic UC who have not received prior systemic therapy and who are ineligible to receive a cisplatin based chemotherapy regimen.
    Protection of trial subjects
    -This study was conducted in accordance with the study protocol, the ethical principles that have their origins in the Declaration of Helsinki and also in agreement with the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines on Good Clinical Practice (GCP), as well as all other applicable country and regional legal and regulatory requirements. -The DSMB was responsible for safeguarding the interests of trial participants -Investigators were trained to conduct this study in accordance with the study protocol and ICH GCP guidelines. Written commitments were obtained from investigators to comply with GCP and to conduct the study in accordance with the protocol. The investigators were responsible for ensuring that this protocol, the site’s ICF, and other information that will be presented to potential subjects were reviewed and approved by the appropriate IRB/IEC prior to enrolment of any study subject. -Study-related data will be used by the sponsor in accordance with local data protection law. -The Informed Consent forms were designed following the Directive 2001/20/EC relating to the implementation of good clinical practice in the conduct of clinical trials on medicinal products for human use.
    Background therapy
    6 cycles of Carboplatin/gemcitabine (carboplatin 5AUC day +1, gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 day +1 and +8) every 3 weeks. More than 50% of patients are ineligible to receive cisplatin due to impaired renal function, poor performance status or other comorbidities (hearing loss, neuropathy, heart failure) (9). For these unfit cases, carboplatin-based combinations such as carboplatin-gemcitabine are considered valid alternative options, although they are associated with inferior OS compared to cisplatin-based chemotherapy.
    Evidence for comparator
    2 cycles of induction avelumab 10mg/kg every 2 weeks followed by 6 cycles of carboplatin/gemcitabine plus avelumab (carboplatin 5AUC day +1, gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 day +1 and +8 and avelumab 10mg/kg day +15) every 3 weeks followed by avelumab monotherapy 10mg/kg every 2 weeks until progressive disease or intolerance. Recently, impressive signs of anti-tumor activity have been reported with several immune check-point inhibitors targeting the programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) receptor and its ligand (PD-L1) in advanced UC patients who have failed first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. Recently, signs of anti-tumor activity have been reported with several immune check-point inhibitors targeting the programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) receptor and its ligand (PD-L1) in advanced UC patients who have failed first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. Avelumab has showed positive results in the maintenance setting in a phase 3 trial.

    Notes
    [1] - it was hypothesized that the ORR with the avelumab-chemotherapy combination will be equal or greater than 45%; the ORR with standard carboplatin-gemcitabine being around 30%. It was calculated that with a sample of approximately 40 patients (35 evaluable) per arm, we have probability 0.9 of selecting the treatment that has a true response rate of 30%+15%=45% (D=0.15), based on a Simon randomised phase II design, including 10% of drop-outs.
