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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.

    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    A patient will be eligible for the study if all the following criteria are met:
    1. Must be 18 years of age or older.
    2. Must have histologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
    3. Must have Stage III or IV disease (see Appendix 11.1).
    4. Must have received only one line of systemic chemotherapy with or without targeted agents, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy for treatment of advanced pancreatic
    adenocarcinoma.
    5. Must have radiological evidence of disease progression following most recent prior treatment, defined as appearance of any new lesion or increase of >20% of one or more existing lesions.
    6. Must have measurable lesion(s) per RECIST version 1.1 by CT scan with contrast (or MRI, if the patient is allergic to CT contrast media).
    - Measurable disease may be in the field of prior irradiation; however, at least 4 weeks must have elapsed between the completion of radiation therapy and the baseline scan documenting disease status.
    - Bone disease is considered radiologically measurable only if there is at least a 50% lytic component.
    NOTE: Bone disease consisting of blastic lesion only is not measurable.
    7. Archival or fresh tumor tissue must be available for evaluating relevant biomarkers. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded [FFPE] block preferred, or a minimum of 10 unstained FFPE slides of one archived block is required. NOTE: cytology samples
    from fine needle aspirates or brushing biopsies are not sufficient.
    8. Must have adequate performance status (see Appendix 11.2):
    - ECOG Performance Status (PS) score of 0, or
    - ECOG score 1 and score ≥80 on Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) scale.
    9. Must have life expectancy of >12 weeks according to the Investigator’s clinical judgment.
    10. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and additional pregnancy test prior to first dose. Males and females of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception during treatment and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study treatment.
    11. Must have adequate laboratory parameters at baseline (obtained <14 days prior to randomization:
    a. Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 x 109/L.
    b. Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL.
    c. Platelet count ≥100,000/mm3 (100 x 109/L).

    e. Total bilirubin ≤1.5 x institutional ULN.
    f. Serum creatinine within normal limits or calculated clearance >60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for patients with serum creatinine levels above or below the
    institutional normal range. Actual body weight should be used for calculating creatinine clearance (e.g., using the Cockcroft-Gault formula). For patients with a
    Body Mass Index (BMI) >30 Kg/m2, lean body weight should be used instead.
    g. Acceptable coagulation parameters: plasma antithrombin III >70%, fibrinogen ≥1.5 g/dL, international normalized ratio (INR) <1.5, and partial thromboplastin
    time (PTT) ≤ institutional ULN.
    h. Serum albumin ≥3.0 g/dL.
    12. Patients requiring biliary stent placement must have the biliary stent placed >7 days prior to screening and must have normalization of bilirubin level after stenting.
    13. Must not be receiving therapy in a concurrent clinical study and must agree not to participate in any other interventional clinical studies during their participation in this trial while on study treatment. Patients taking part in surveys or observational studies are eligible to participate in this study.
    14. Must be able to understand and comply with the conditions of the protocol and must have read and understood the consent form and provided written informed consent.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    A patient is not eligible to participate in the study if any of the following criteria are met:
    1. Resectable or borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
    2. Histology other than pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (for example, but not inclusive: neuroendocrine, adenosquamous).
    3. More than 1 line of prior treatment in advanced or metastatic setting.
    4. Patient has experienced medically significant acute decline in clinical status including
    a. Decline in ECOG PS to >1 (or KPS <70) between baseline visit and within 72 hours prior to randomization.
    b. Weight loss of ≥10% during screening.
    5. Presence of active or symptomatic untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
    NOTE: Patients with asymptomatic or stable CNS metastases are eligible, provided that the CNS metastases are radiologically and clinically stable, and the patient is off steroids for at least 1 month prior to randomization.
    6. Prior radiotherapy to the only area of measurable disease, unless there is documented disease progression, defined as an increase of at least 1 cm in the longest diameter compared to the nadir scan.
    NOTE: Patients must have completed treatment and recovered from all acute treatmentrelated toxicities prior to administration of the first dose of eryaspase or chemotherapy.
    7. Bone as the only site of metastatic disease from pancreatic cancer (bone-only disease).
    8. History of recent clinical pancreatitis, according to revised Atlanta criteria, within 3 months of randomization.

    chemotherapy must be screened for UGT1A1*28 allele before enrollment into the trial and must have the initial irinotecan dose reduced if demonstrated to be homozygous for the UGT1A1*28 allele.
    13. Patients being treated with warfarin are not eligible. Warfarin must be replaced with low molecular weight heparin.
    14. History of other malignancies except: adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in-situ cancer of the cervix, or other solid tumors curatively treated by
    surgery alone or surgery plus radiotherapy with no evidence of disease for >5 years.
    15. Any other severe acute or chronic condition that may increase the risk of study participation including:
    a. History of abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, peptic ulcer, or intraabdominal abscess within 6 months prior to randomization.
    b. Current or history within 6 months prior to randomization of medically significant cardiovascular disease including symptomatic congestive heart failure >New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II, unstable angina pectoris, clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia.
