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.

    - Immuno-related objective response rate according to modified RECIST criteria (irORR)
    - Early Objective Response Rate (EOR)
    - Deepness of response (DoR)
    - R0 Resection Rate
    - Overall Survival (OS)
    - Exploratory biomarker translational analyses, including the evaluation of immunity-related parameters on samples collected both before and after the treatment.
    Obiettivi secondari di questo studio sono valutare la sicurezza e attività di mFOLFOXIRI più cetuximab e avelumab in termini di:
    - Tasso di tossicità;

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Progression Free Survival (PFS) defined as the time from study enrollment to the first documentation of objective disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. PFS will be censored on the date of the last evaluable on study tumor assessment documenting absence of progressive disease for patients who are alive, on study and progression free at the time of the analysis. Alive patients having no tumor assessments after baseline will have time to event censored on the date of registration.
    Progression-free survival (PFS) è definita come il tempo dall’arruolamento alla prima evidenza di progressione obiettiva della malattia o morte del paziente per qualsiasi causa, a seconda di quale si verifichi prima. PFS sarà censorizzata alla data dell’ultima valutazione di malattia che documenti assenza di progressione per i pazienti vivi, in studio e non progrediti al momento dell’analisi. I pazienti vivi senza valutazione di malattia dopo il basale saranno censorizzati alla data di registrazione.
