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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    The primary objective is to compare the efficacy, as measured by recurrence-free survival (RFS) by blinded independent central review (BICR), of bempegaldesleukin plus nivolumab versus nivolumab in patients with completely resected Stage IIIA (lymph node [LN] metastasis > 1 mm), Stage IIIB/C/D, or Stage IV (American Joint Committee on Cancer [AJCC] 8th edition) cutaneous melanoma with no evidence of disease (NED) who are at high risk for recurrence.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The conduct of the study was consistent with the principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and in accordance with FDA regulations (21 CFR § 11, 50, 54, 56, and 312), with ICH GCP, as well as with any applicable regulatory authority, federal, state, and/or local laws and regulations. Patients were to be informed of all aspects of the study relevant to the patient’s decision to participate, and the ICF was to be presented to each patient in the language in which the patient was fluent. Informed consent was obtained and documented by each patient or patient’s legal representative prior to any protocol-specific procedures. Signed ICFs were retained by the Investigator with the study records. Each patient/legal representative was given a copy of the signed and dated ICF.
    Background therapy
    Not applicable
    Evidence for comparator
    Bempegaldesleukin + nivolumab were compared with nivolumab after complete resection of melanoma in patients at high risk for recurrence. Nivolumab 480 mg IV infusion q4w (or 6.0 mg/kg IV infusion q4w for patients < 40 kg) were administrated as reference therapy.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    774 subjects were enrolled in the study (386 in the bempegaldesleukin + nivolumab arm and 388 in the nivolumab arm). 9 of 774 subjects were not treated. 765 subjects were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to 1 of 2 treatment arms: - Arm A: bempegaldesleukin + nivolumab every 3 weeks (q3w) - Arm B: nivolumab monotherapy every 4 weeks (q4w).

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    This study was divided into a Screening period, a Treatment period, and a Long-Term Follow-Up period. The subjects who met all the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were selected to participate in the study.

    End point title
    Recurrence-free Survival (RFS) by BICR [1]
    End point description
    RFS, defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of first reccurence (local, regional, or distant metastasis by BICR), a new primary melanoma (by BICR), or all-cause death, whichever occurred first. For this outcome measure, zero (”0”) participants were analyzed in each Arm/Group. The study was terminated early due to the closure of the bempegaldesleukin clinical development program due to lack of enhanced efficacy being observed in combination with nivolumab therapy over nivolumab monotherapy for metastatic melanoma. As consequence, no aggregate blinded independent central review data were available; no comparative analysis between bempegaldesleukin + nivolumab arm vs nivolumab arm were conducted for this efficacy endpoint.
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    Patients were treated up to approximately 1 year (maximum of 17 cycles for the bempegaldesleukin + nivolumab arm and 13 cycles for the nivolumab arm).
    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: Due to the early termination of the study, as a consequence of the closure of the bempegaldesleukin clinical program, no BICR data were transferred and analysed, and primary endpoint data was not evaluable.

    The Predictive Strength of PD-L1 Expression as a Biomarker
    End point description
    The Predictive Strength of PD-L1 Expression as a Biomarker was measured by the endpoint RFS by BICR based on PD-L1 expression level. For this outcome measure, zero (”0”) participants were analysed in each Arm/Group. The study was terminated early due to the closure of the bempegaldesleukin clinical development program due to lack of enhanced efficacy being observed in combination with nivolumab therapy over nivolumab monotherapy for metastatic melanoma. As a consequence, no aggregate blinded independent central review data were available; no comparative analyses between bempegaldesleukin + nivolumab arm vs nivolumab arm were conducted for this efficacy endpoint.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    AEs will be reported starting immediately after the patient has been administered the first dose of study drug(s) until 100 days (+/- 7 days) after the last dose of all study drug(s).
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    All ongoing non-serious AEs will be followed until resolution, the patient is lost to follow-up, patient death, or until the last Safety Follow-Up Visit. If the AE has not completely resolved by the last Safety Follow-Up Visit, the final outcome of these ongoing AEs will be captured.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    14 Jun 2021
    • Added DMFS by BICR as a secondary objective of the study and associated data analysis. • Elevated time to disease progression after the next line of treatment from an exploratory objective to a secondary objective of the study. • Clarified the definition for end of study. • Clarified that patients ≥ 12 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent are eligible to participate in the study, except where local regulations, countries and/or institutional policies do not allow for patients < 18 years of age (adolescents) to participate. • Modified inclusion criterion 11.c to indicate women should use “effective methods” of contraception. • Modified exclusion criterion 19 to extract Criterion 19b for TIA/CVA to its own exclusion criterion 20. • Added a new section for measures of treatment compliance. • Specified the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EQ-5D-5L to be administered before any other study-related procedures, with the EORTC QLQ-C30 assessed before the EQ-5D-5L. • Removed medical resource utilization and healthcare economics from study assessments. • Clarified PK and immunogenicity blood samples should be drawn from a site other than the infusion site (ie, contralateral arm) on days of infusion and clarified the sample analysis methodologies. • Added blood samples to be collected for exploratory biomarker analysis to characterize TIA events and clarified blood samples should be collected as close as possible to the new CVA or TIA event. • Reorganized monitoring and management of bempegaldesleukin-induced eosinophilia; updated language characterizing eosinophilia in patients receiving bempegaldesleukin; added language to describe isolated cases of hypereosinophilic syndrome and drug reaction with eosinophilia. • Other changes.
