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   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   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
    - Phase Ib: The safety of the combination of Nab-paclitaxel - Gemcitabine with Ramucirumab in 4-weekly cycles by determining the Recommended Dose (RD) during the first two cycles of therapy (8 weeks). - Phase II: Efficacy by determination of the objective response rate (ORR) by RECIST criteria of the combination of Ramucirumab with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine administered in 4-weekly cycles.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial. A copy of the IEC/IRB approval was received by the sponsor before recruitment of subjects into the study and all subjects provided written informed consent before undergoing any study-related procedures.

    Phase Ib
    Arm description
    The first 12 patients entered the phase Ib study in 2 cohorts of 6 patients each. In the first cohort, six patients started Ramucirumab followed by Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine every 4 weeks for 2 cycles at the specific initial dose level. Modification of the initial dose depended on the frequency of dose limiting toxicities (DLT) and followed specific rules. When the dose was determined in the first cohort, then the second cohort was enrolled to test the safety of this dose. The Phase II Recommended dose (RD) for the phase II part of the study was determined when all 6+6 patients completed a maximum of 2 cycles. In the screening period, 1 patient had a SAE once ICF was signed and was monitored for safety reasons. Patient did not receive any intervention and was set off study protocol. During phase Ib 2 patients were found ineligible they had received at least 1 cycle of therapy and had to be replaced since the Recommended Dose had to be determined in 12 eligible patients.

The first cohort of the phase Ib part entered the phase II part by continuing the treatment beyond the second cycle at the dose level determined at this cohort. Dose reductions in the phase II study followed the standards according to the drugs’ Summary of Product Characteristics (SPCs). One patient was not included in the analysis due to consent withdrawal prior to receiving any treatment and no SAE was reported.

    Safety of the combination of Ramucirumab with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine [1] [2]
    End point description
    One-to-two cohorts of 6 patients each will receive two cycles of the regimen at active dose levels. The final dose will be determined according to a specific algorithm described in the protocol.
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    From study initiation until the determination of the Recommended Dose (RD) during the first two cycles of therapy (8 weeks).
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: The determination of the maximum tolerated dose of Ramucirumab with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine was the primary endpoint of the Phase Ib part of the study. Gemcitabine doses per dose level are described for patients enrolled in the Phase Ib part of the study.
    [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: Since this was a single arm Phase Ib/II trial and all patients were treated with Ramucirumab,Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine, no comparisons between different treatment arms were performed. The number of patients evaluable for DLT per dose level is described for patients enrolled in the Phase Ib part of the study.
