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   43846   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.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Merck will conduct Future Biomedical Research on DNA (blood and saliva) specimens collected during this clinical trial. Such research is for biomarker testing to address emergent questions not described elsewhere in the protocol (as part of the main trial) and will only be conducted on specimens from appropriately consented subjects. The objective of collecting specimens for Future Biomedical Research is to explore and identify biomarkers that inform the scientific understanding of diseases and/or their therapeutic treatments. The overarching goal is to use such information to develop safer, more effective drugs, and/or to ensure that subjects receive the correct dose of the correct drug at the correct time.
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    A participant will be eligible for inclusion in the study if the participant:
    1. Has NSCLC diagnosed by histology or cytology and confirmed as Stage I or IIA NSCLC (AJCC 8th edition) by chest CT and PET scan. Prospective participants with mediastinal lymph nodes measured on chest CT as >1 cm in the short axis or PET avid lymph nodes may be eligible if the lymph node(s) in question is biopsied and is histologically benign.
    2. Cannot undergo thoracic surgery due to existing medical illness(es) as determined by the participant’s treating physician in consultation with the site’s multi-disciplinary tumor board. The recommendation from the tumor board as well as the reason(s) for declaring the patient medically inoperable must be included in the participant’s study documents in order to be eligible for KEYNOTE-867. Patients, who are able to withstand thoracic surgery, but choose to pursue non-operative therapy, are not eligible. If there is no tumor board, then this decision will be made by the investigator in consultation with a thoracic surgeon and a radiation oncologist if the investigator is not a radiation oncologist.
    3. Has a ECOG Performance Status of 0, 1, or 2.
    4. Is able to receive SBRT.
    5. Has adequate organ function. Specimens must be collected within 7 days prior to the start of study intervention.
    6. Is male or female ≥18 years of age, at the time of signing the informed consent.
    Male Participants
    Contraceptive use by men should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
    Female Participants
    Contraceptive use by women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
    7. A female is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: a) not a women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) OR b) A WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance during the treatment interval and for at least 120 days (corresponding to time needed to eliminate any study treatment (pembrolizumab).
    8. The participant (or legally acceptable representative if applicable) provides written informed consent/assent for the study. The participant may also provide consent/assent for future biomedical research. However, the participant may participate in the main study without participating in future biomedical research.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    The participant must be excluded from the study if the participant:
    1. Is a WOCBP who has a positive urine pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to randomization or treatment allocation. If the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required.
    2. Has received prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti PD-L2 agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or co-inhibitory T-cell receptor (e.g., CTLA-4, OX-40, CD137).
    3. Has received prior radiotherapy to the thorax, including radiotherapy to the esophagus, mediastinum, or breast. Participants receiving radiotherapy to the contralateral breast at least 5 years prior to randomization may still be eligible.
    4. Has received a live vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose of study drug. Examples of live vaccines include, but are not limited to, the following: measles, mumps, rubella, varicella/zoster (chicken pox), yellow fever, rabies, Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG), and typhoid vaccine. Seasonal influenza vaccines for injection are generally killed virus vaccines are allowed; however, intranasal influenza vaccines (eg, FluMist®) are live attenuated vaccines are allowed.
    5. Is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study intervention.
    6. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (in dosing exceeding 10 mg daily of prednisone equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior the first dose of study drug.
    7. Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years.
    8. Has a known hypersensitivity (≥Grade 3) to pembrolizumab and/or any of its excipients.
    9. Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or has current pneumonitis.
    10. Has a known history of Hepatitis B (defined as Hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] reactive) or known active Hepatitis C virus (defined as HCV RNA [qualitative] is detected) infection.
    11. Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in past 2 years (i.e., with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs). However, replacement therapy (eg thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency), while systemic, will be permitted for study eligibility.
    12. Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy.
    13. Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. No HIV testing is required unless mandated by local health authority.
    14. Has a known history of active tuberculosis (TB; Bacillus tuberculosis). No TB testing is required unless mandated by local health authority.
    15. Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the study, interfere with the participant's participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in the best interest of the participant to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator.
    16. Has a known psychiatric or substance abuse disorder that would interfere with the participant’s ability to cooperate with the requirements of the study.
    17. Is pregnant or breastfeeding or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of study intervention.
    18. Has had an allogenic tissue/solid organ transplant.
