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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    • Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol.
    • Written informed consent and any locally required authorization obtained from the patient/legal representative prior to performing any protocol-related procedures, including screening evaluations.
    • Age =18 years at the time of study entry
    • Histologically or cytologically (cell blocks only; smears are not acceptable) documented pulmonary large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC)
    • Stage IV disease or unresectable stage IIIB, which cannot be safely encompassed in a single RT field (e.g. supraclavicular N3, T4 by infiltration of vertebral body), according to the AJCC 8th edition Cancer Staging Manual
    • Body weight >30 kg
    • No prior chemotherapy or treatment with another systemic anti-cancer agent. Patients who have received prior chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced pulmonary LCNEC must have been treated with curative intent and experienced a treatment-free interval of at least 6 months from last chemotherapy, radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy cycle to disease relapse, progression, or diagnosis of metastatic LCNEC. In this case, all toxicity from previous treatments should be resolved and no cumulative toxicity of grade >1 should be present (see also Section 4.2 “Exclusion criteria”).
    • No need for concomitant chest irradiation
    • ECOG performance status 0-1
    • Life expectancy = 12 weeks
    • At least one lesion measurable according to RECIST v 1.1 outside of the CNS, not previously irradiated, that can be accurately measured at baseline as = 10 mm in the longest diameter (except lymph nodes which must have short axis = 15 mm) with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and which is suitable for accurate repeated measurements
    • Adequate hematologic function, as evidenced by an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) =1500/µL, hemoglobin =9 g/dL (5.58 mmol/L), and platelets =100,000/µL.
    • Adequate hepatic and renal functions:

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary endpoint is Overall Survival (OS) that will be measured from the date of registration to the date of death by any cause and will be analyzed as survival rate at 1 year.
    L’endpoint principale è la sopravvivenza globale (OS) che verrà misurata dalla data di registrazione alla data di morte per qualsiasi causa e verrà analizzata come tasso di sopravvivenza a 1 anno.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    1 year
    1 anno
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    The secondary endpoints are:
    1) median OS that will be measured from the date of registration to the date of death by any cause
    2) Progression Free Survival (PFS) that will be measured from the date of registration to the date of disease progression based on the Investigator’s assessment according to standard RECIST 1.1 criteria, or death, whichever occurs first. PFS will be reported as median, 6-month and 12-month PFS rate.
    3) Objective Response Rate (ORR) that will be defined as the sum of complete response (CR) + partial response (PR), based on the Investigator’s assessment according to standard RECIST 1.1 criteria. Patients with no tumor assessment after baseline will be classified as non-responders.
    4) Median Duration of Response (DoR) that will be measured from the date of first radiological evidence PR or CR to the date of first evidence of PD, both based on the Investigator’s assessment according to standard RECIST 1.1 criteria
    5) Disease control rate (DCR) that will be considered as the sum of complete responses (CRs), partial responses (PRs) and stable disease (SD), according to standard RECIST 1.1 criteria. Patients with no tumor assessment after baseline will be classified as non-responders.
    6) Toxicity that will be based on the frequency and severity of adverse events (all grades and grade 3-4); severity will be measured according to NCI Common Terminology Criteria Adverse Event (CTCAE), version 5.0. The worst severity grade adverse event will be considered for each patient.
    Gli endpoint secondari sono:
    1) OS mediana che sarà misurata dalla data di registrazione alla data di morte per qualsiasi causa
    2) Sopravvivenza libera da progressione (PFS) che sarà misurata dalla data di registrazione alla data di progressione di malattia in base alla valutazione dello Sperimentatore secondo i criteri RECIST v1.1 standard, o alla morte, qualunque avvenga per prima. La PFS sarà riportata come mediana e tasso di PFS a 6 mesi e a 12 mesi.
    3) Tasso di risposte obiettive (ORR) che sarà definito come la somma delle risposte complete (CR) + risposte parziali (PR), in base alla valutazione dello Sperimentatore secondo i criteri RECIST v1.1. standard. I pazienti non sottoposti a valutazione della risposta tumorale dopo il basale saranno classificati come non-responder.
    4) Mediana della durata della riposta (DoR) che sarà misurata dalla data della prima evidenza radiologica di PR o CR alla data della prima evidenza di PD, entrambi in base alla valutazione dello Sperimentatore secondo i criteri RECIST v1.1. standard
    5) Tasso di controllo di malattia (DCR) che sarà ottenuto dalla somma delle CR, PR e stabilità di malattia (SD), in base alla valutazione dello Sperimentatore secondo i criteri RECIST v1.1. standard. I pazienti non sottoposti a valutazione della risposta tumorale dopo il basale saranno classificati come non-responder.
    6) La tossicità sarà basata sulla frequenza e la gravità degli eventi avversi (di ogni grado e di grado 3-4); la gravità sarà misurata secondo il NCI Common Terminology Criteria Adverse Event (CTCAE), versione 5.0. Per ogni paziente verrà considerato l’evento avverso di maggiore gravità.
