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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 ).

    PFS was defined as the time (months) from randomization until the first radiographic documentation of objective progression as assessed by investigator using RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever comes first. More specifically, PFS was determined using all data until the last evaluable visit prior to or on the date of: (i) radiographic disease progression (PD) per RECIST v1.1; (ii) withdrawal of consent to obtain additional scans on study; or (iii) initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy other than the study drugs, whichever was earlier. PD was defined as: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study, including baseline; an absolute increase of at least 5 mm in the sum of diameters of target lesions; and the appearance of one or more new lesions. ITT population included all randomized subjects.

    DCR was defined as percentage of subjects achieving a best overall response of confirmed CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) (for at least 7 weeks) per RECIST v1.1, as determined by the investigator. PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. CR: Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. SD: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD), taking as reference the smallest sum on study.

    Duration of Response (DOR) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1)
    End point description
    DOR was defined as the time (in months) from the first occurrence of PR or CR by RECIST Version 1.1, until the first date that progressive disease is documented by RECIST Version 1.1, or death, whichever comes first. Only those subjects with confirmed responses of CR or PR were included in this analysis. DOR was calculated as (date of death or PD or last assessment – date of first occurrence of confirmed CR or PR + 1)/30.4375. Analysis was performed on subset of subjects who had a response. Here, ‘0’ in ‘overall number of subjects analyzed represents that DOR could only be analyzed in subjects who achieved a response. As no subject in the Placebo Plus BSC Group cohort achieved any response, no DOR is available. Here "99999" means upper limit of 95 percent (%) confidence interval (CI) was not estimable due to limited number of subjects with events.

    Number of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs
    End point description
    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE was considered a TEAE if the onset date was on or after the start of study treatment or if the onset date was missing, or if the AE had an onset date before the start of study treatment but worsened in severity after the study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment or a new treatment of anti-tumor therapy, whichever was earlier. After this period, treatment-related SAEs were also considered as TEAEs. AEs with an unknown/not reported onset date were also included. SP included all randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of study drug.

    Plasma samples were collected from the subjects at the defined time points. Plasma concentrations were measured using a validated, specific, and sensitive liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method. M11 is the active metabolite for the study drug. PK population was used for tabulation of fruquintinib and M11 concentrations from PK plasma samples collected from the Fruquintinib + BSC Group. PK samples for the Placebo + BSC Group were not analyzed. Here “N”=subjects evaluable for this endpoint; “n”=subjects evaluable at the specified timepoints. Here "C" indicates "Cycle", "D" indicates "Day" an "Conc." indicates "Concentration". Here "99999" indicates "Standard deviation", was not evaluable for single subject.

    Notes
    [7] - 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: As per planned analysis, data for this endpoint was analysed for Fruquintinib arm only.

    Model-predicted steady-state minimum plasma concentrations (CminSS) of fruquintinib based on starting dose or adjusted for relative dose intensity(RDI) used as exposure measures in efficacy exposure-response analyses. Correlation between OS and exposure estimated using multivariable Cox proportional hazards modeling with OS analyzed as time-to-event variable using survival model. Analysis included subjects from 2019-013-GLOB1(N=328) and Cohort B of 2015-013-00US1(N=40). “Unit” i.e., ‘1/(nanogram per milliliter)’, corresponds to the coefficient that describes the relationship between probability of survival and CminSS value. Efficacy exposure- response analyses included subjects evaluable for population PK analysis, had PK parameter estimates to enable estimation of fruquintinib exposure and evaluated for parameter in question. “N” = subjects evaluable for this endpoint; “n”= subjects evaluable at specified timepoints.

    End point description
    The EQ-5D-5L is a self-reported health status questionnaire that consisted of six questions used to calculate a health utility score. There were two components to the EQ-5D-5L: a five-item health state profile that assessed mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression used to obtain an Index Utility Score and a general VAS score for health status. EQ-5D VAS was used to record subjects's rating for his/her current health-related quality of life state on a vertical VAS with scores ranging from 0 to 100, where 0 = worst imaginable health state and 100 = best imaginable health state. The higher the score the better the health status. A negative change from baseline value represents patient condition worsened. Change from baseline in the EQ-5D-5L VAS scores was performed by visit (i.e. cycle), using a REML-based MMRM approach.

    Change From Baseline in EuroQoL 5 Dimension 5 Level (EQ-5D-5L) Health Utility Index Scores
    End point description
    EQ-5D-5L consisted of 2 components: health state profile and optional VAS. EQ-5D health state profile had 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1= no problem, 2= slight problem, 3= moderate problem, 4= severe problem, and 5= extreme problem. The response levels collected from the EQ-5D-5L five dimensions as a health profile are converted into an EQ-5D-5L index (utility) scores to represent participants’ utility value. Range of health utility index score is from -0.285 to 1, where higher value indicates perfect health and a negative value represents a state worse than dead. Change from baseline in EQ-5D-5L health utility index scores was performed by visit (i.e., cycle), using a REML-based MMRM approach.
